In the wordle world, this is almost a big enough deal to make an x, formerly known as twitter, burner account and post on the NYT page. Just a little jab in the stomach that other ppl will see

There's a subset of drinkers that would aspire to it though - some ppl's passion is booze, and will spend the same price as a nice car on it and sip it over a decade. Whether or not it's sane is up to you though lol

Don't be silly. If one should get double tapped, you have a progressively smaller gun. For emergencies

In a similar vein, I went with a Framework laptop. Expensive, but 100% modular and repairable, with an in-house secondhand marketplace. I have a gen 1, batch 2, and the thing is stunningly manufactured for a startup. Can't say enough good things. Happy hunting!

I kind of disagree. What are Drake and Lamar gonna do, go after one of the biggest names in rap? That really went well for MGK 😂
