22. Honestly...

Thu Dec 26, 2024, 03:55 PM

Thursday

I had decided to start avoiding even spending time here in the new year because of the proliferation of Trump Junk. It's not news and serves no purpose but to signal boost his insanity and I ain't into that.

So, if you were to create a designated area for his nonsense I believe that it would be in the best interest of your enterprise.

I'm here to help. Let me know if you have any need for me.

Thanks.
