However cliche it may be, I’ll just be here delighting in signs of springtime and warmer weather approaching. Our dwarf peach tree has its first blossoms and new growth, and I’m enchanted. #FirstTimeFruitTreeMom #ProudParent #peachtree 🍑

Trump just ordered 2 dams opened up in California in an unprecedented move that risks depleting the reservoirs ahead of the dry summer months.

And the kicker? The water from the dams doesn't even flow to Los Angeles.

Remember the end of The Lion King when the hyenas realize Scar lied to them to secure power so they eat him?

This turns out to have not been a particularly tricky prediction.
I for one am excited for TikTok to show me a splashy "The US GOVERNMENT HAS DESTROYED EVERYTHING YOU LOVE" screen when I open the app next week followed by Donald Trump crawling through glass to get it back because it helped get him elected thus solidifying him as a HERO OF THE EVERYDAY AMERICAN.
