Also, this is random, but if you’ve followed me recently and I haven’t followed you back, here’s my policy:
If you meaningfully engage (thoughtful replies, etc), I will almost always follow back.
I love interacting with people on here! Likes are cool, but actually talking to people is more fun!

Did anyone else's YouTube watch history suddenly get switched on?
I was also suddenly subscribed to Forbes Breaking News (though that seems like something that could easily happen by accident).
No weird logins, 2FA enabled, etc. Changed my password already. Still strange.

Wild to think that there's a junior exec walking around Manhattan right now who, within a month, will be sent by her firm back to her hometown to close a local business, only to run into a former-flame turned tree-farming cookie enthusiast who'll change her life via the power of Christmas.

The Nico Harrison firing is a lot like when the Rebel Alliance blew up the first Death Star.
There's still an empire to take down and a lot of work ahead. People aren't sure who to trust. Balance has not been restored.
But sometimes you just gotta celebrate the wins.

You never want to cheer for someone to be fired. When it gets to that point, the situation is beyond bad.
Unfortunately, some people are so bad at their jobs that they genuinely need to be fired. It doesn't necessarily make them a bad person.
Nico Harrison absolutely *DESERVED* to be fired.

SNAP benefits are currently being held hostage by the Trump administration and their fate now lies with the Supreme Court.
Beneath the legal arguments are real people who simply need food—a former federal worker, a single mother of 4, a disabled man. I spoke to them. Here are their stories:

The saddest/funniest part of the entire ordeal is that there is no combination of Mavs assets that would make the Lakers consider trading Luka back to them
The trade value of the entire franchise is less than the guy they traded

I'm guilty of this--and a little concerned that it's becoming a crutch.
In text-based communications (especially short-form things like social media), I worry that my tone is unclear. Words/phrases like TBH and honestly seem like they help with that. Ditto for laughing emoji and '/s'.

Should I just get the version for the original Switch instead?
