, ole trumpy said that he told Pete Hegseth about 911 a year before it happened. Pete was a freshman at Princeton during that time. Enjoy the video, I’m going to get sent to a camp for this one.

Trump is such a disgrace. The event is starting nearly an hour late because of him. If you aren’t 15 minutes early, you are late.

iOS is randomly partially toggling other alarms when you enable/disable one. I just reported to Apple, but I’ve never had any of my reports get any feedback, so I don’t know if it is even worth it to submit them.

I’m updating my
#Hinge
profile and after I wrote “MAGA,” Apple suggested the word “cult” I’m wondering how long it will take before it starts suggesting the word “fascist” Also, I’m fairly sure Hinge is using OpenAI to power their feedback. The political references killed the response.
