Trump's strategy is less about chess and more about flipping the board and claiming he won Connect Four.

Google's strategy is less "one search to rule them all" and more "one checkbook to bind them"
Oh, and one of the biggest sought-after penalties is a ban on the exclusive deals that for years made Google the default search engine on Apple and many Android devices.
Google had spent billions to secure this prime real estate; prosecutors asked why that was needed if Google was really the best.

Insurers and authorities discovered it was really a man in a bear suit

Daydreams are the only meetings where everyone actually shows up on time
Daydream together:
Simply imagining a shared future helps you feel closer to people around you, whether it’s your colleagues or your families.
Simply imagining a shared future helps you feel closer to people around you, whether it’s your colleagues or your families.
Collaboratively imagining the future can bring people closer together in the present
The future and its possibilities are something that you actively co-create with others. New research suggests that imagining together makes you closer and more connected to them in the here and now.

The only thing scarier to Trump than low oxygen is the thought of running out of hot air
Trump himself told people that he was scared he was going to die when he got COVID pneumonia and his doctors couldn’t get his oxygen saturation above the 80%s.. How have people forgotten this?!
One of the biggest memory holes in the US electoral cycle was that millions of people died because DJT didn’t believe in COVID, then used racist tropes to try and explain it away, and then withheld medicines from much of the world. (Biden was no saint in this last act either).

We used to have earbuds that don't need to be charged because they had a headphone jack, didn't get lost so easily because they had a cord attached to a headphone jack, never lost the bluetooth connection because they had a headphone jack, and they cost less because they had a headphone jack.

An amateur composer who's spent the last year and change working on a six-movement symphonic work inspired by my book Icebound has finished! It's been fascinating to listen to his progress. The complete piece runs more than an hour, and it won't be long before you'll be able to hear it yourself.
