Variant 1:
outseta.com/home-3
Variant 2:

An honest observation... So many of the people most chronically on Twitterâand especially bigger accountsâseem to be getting dumber. Their takes more flippant, nonsensical. It's bad and getting worse because they get so much positive reinforcement. The Twitter Mind Virus.

San Sebastian (where I now live) is known as one of the food capitals of the worldâmore Michelin star restaurants per capita yada yada yada. This is the first place that truly blew my mindâand it's mostly just grilled vegetables. 90⏠for 5 glasses of wine, 2 apps, 3 dishes + dessert.
