I'd rather be an X-man. An X-Man is someone who has found themself, someone who knows who they are and accepted it with a grace and wisdom many people will never understand. An X-Man might have been given a rough hand in their life, but rather than letting that crush them, they have found a way to rise up. The X-Men don't care what you look like. They don't care if you are rich or poor. They don't care if you can lift a bus or barely lift a scrap of paper. They know it's what's in your heart that matters. When everyone else tallies up the mistakes and wrong turns you have made in your life, and remind you of it every chance they get, the X-Men say, 'We don't care who you were. What matters is who you are NOW. An X-Man extends their hand to those who need it. If you feel you can't overcome the challenges around you, the X-Men are there to run you through the Danger Room and support you every time you fall, until one happy day, you stop falling altogether. An X-Man gives you the truth you need to hear, and the kindness you can't forget. When society scorns the colors you wear, the X-Men say, let's dress up fancy and have a goddamn gala. The X-Men don't erase the past. They remember the Holocaust, they remember Jim Crow, and they actively seek to make sure it doesn't happen again. Your family rejects you? The X-Men say, they can go straight to hell. Come be part of OUR family. Other hero teams are often about protecting wealth and the status quo and the government and peace and quiet. The X-Men are about protecting that one kid, that one child afraid to go to school, afraid to go out in public, afraid of even the people around them. They are about sanctuary, not cages.

Why did you vote against impeachment? Your constituents *will* remember this.

Friend of mine at FM said there's a rumor going to around that the strike doesn't include home and apparel staff. I think that sounds like management propaganda. Please clarify so I can pass that on?

"We used a hammer because it was faster than a screwdriver." Chat GPT is not known for being accurate. When I was experimenting with it, I asked if to recommend a video game. It gave me 3 suggestions. None of them existed. How many lies has it told about the people you were vetting?
