Been here since January 2025 and still figuring things out. I am a real lady nostrich, I promise I am not a bot and that is not what a bot would say.
There will be puppy pictures, her name is Princess Aurora. I try to keep things positive and spread love โค๏ธ. I am a very silly billy.
My favorite "conspiracy" recently is around the gifted and talented program some of us were in during elementary school. Did you get the pink drink? Did you listen to the gateway experience on giant headphones? Did you play the beep boop game to guess what happens next? Did you play the Zener cards or make pictures out of abstract blocks?

Anyways back to the drawing board. What a pain in the ass ๐คฃ It's hard trying to be clever with computers when you've spent a lifetime just accepting not being very good at tech ๐ฅบ
