I know you've been working on a upcycling effort (thank you), and I know you've been consciously trying to "beat the clock" given that today's the d-day. How close do you think you are?

And a note to Google: dropping a perfectly functional device makes you a no-go for any type of future purchase from me. No pixels, no storage, no nothing. It's not my fault you dingalings paid $3B for thermostat that was slowly adopted and quickly met with ample competition. Oh, and put Reader back.

You, dishonest woman, go to prison because you lied to your investor. Bye, now.

Whereas you, slob cretin creep, haven't gone to prison for being a serial sexual assaulter of women, among many other crimes.

What a world.

Trump is a lifelong pathological liar (among other things). There is no meaning in anything he promises. He has no loyalty to anyone or anything but himself. He is a lecherous, repulsive menace.

1. "Russian IPs" give them plausible deniability for people who are Pavlovian for that soundbite. 2. Plausible deniability no longer required for an administration with components that are obviously Kremlin influenced.

It's obvious sardonic humor srikes a deep, deep nerve in your very incurious, reactive being. I'm sorry it took me 8 days to reply to you, but I just noticed you now. It's going to be OK. Your memes and nerdlingo are safe.

Not merely imbeciles but imbeciles enacting a plan to own power and obliterate everything except for elite right wing extremists. This includes obliterating the non-white Trumper imbeciles and lower socioeconomic imbecile Trunpers who have not even the slightest clue that they're just servile tools.

What's "copium?" Is it one of those meme words (slang, we used to call it) used by people who haven't spent much time reading or writing? Or who can't detect how AI slop is nothing like actual writing? And why do you use the word "honestly" in your terse response? Would you otherwise have been lying? Or is it a crutch that you hope makes you more authentic? Honestly, I'd like to know. And why is there no punctuation or capitalization in your reply? So many questions raised in your throwaway, authentic, structureless writing.
