George Foreman and I have the same hometown. Even though he was living in Houston at the time of his passing, he still came back to Marshall to visit from time to time. His Olympic gold medal is on display at the Harrison County Historical Museum.
Rest easy, Big George. You’ve earned it.

Two things:
1) Galactus isn't a stupid cloud.
2) Marvel is building hype for the trailer release as if it's a literal space exploration launch.
If this movie is bad, I'll scream. Sincerely. I'll scream.

If you search “who was president from 2020-2021,” you will find Donald Trump.
If you search “who was president in 2021,” you get both Trump and Biden.
The election was in 2020. Biden assumed office in 2021. Trump just became president again on Monday.

I don’t know what is causing it, but this whole claiming that Google is “glitching” or that there is a conspiracy of some kind needs to stop.
The reason that Trump shows up to the search “who was president in 2020” is because he didn’t leave office until January 20, 2021.
