There’s a rumor that AI was involved in the writing and/or art. I tend to doubt that, but these days, who knows?

Hey, @olivegarden! Family friend visited your College Station, TX location with his 8yo daughter. Their “waitress” was a man in a dress with a deep voice who scared the little girl. Dad discretely asked for a different waiter…and was escorted with his child from the restaurant.
Please research and address the situation, keeping in mind that it isn’t “intolerant” when a child recognizes that a man in a dress is still a man. This is shabby customer service, and literally misogynistic.
LucasFilm needs a win, @DisneyStudios @RobertIger, and I have the answer: let Kathleen Kennedy make a sequel to the beloved adventure classic The Princess Bride!
Picture this…

Author friends: imagine you’re writing a novel or screenplay and you write a character who does everything Hunter Biden is confirmed to have done.
You wouldn’t.
It’s too unbelievable. It strains credibility too far.
Let’s go. 🧵
You introduce the “Hunter” character at his elder brother’s funeral. He’s married, with three kids. He’s enormously sympathetic; you’ve obviously set him up to be a main protagonist. Early 40s, family man, surviving scion.
He immediately has an affair with his brother’s widow.

Gen Z and Millennials don’t understand that “kids movies” from the 1970s and 1980s absolutely did not care about your feelings.
Drop the movie title below with a gif to illustrate.
The Great Mouse Detective (Disney, 1986) has a straight-up striptease in a bar.

Sauron didn’t plan to get shipwrecked, trapped on a raft, and almost eaten by a sea worm twice.
He didn’t plan on meeting Galadriel, an elf who, astoundingly, had just jumped out of her ship to somehow swim the entire length of the Sundering Seas, in the middle of the ocean.
Sauron didn’t plan to be rescued by the Númenoreans.
He didn’t plan for Galadriel to refuse to believe that he’d stolen a symbol from a dead man as he told her, then insist that he was a king while he insisted he wasn’t.
He didn’t plan to be out in prison for theft and assault.

One like = one absolutely serious policy position or action I’ll take in my first month as congressman.
1) I will dress like a fancy pirate every single day and be armed with at least one knife, one sword, and three period-accurate pistols. This serves as two reminders: of the right to bear arms, and of the text of Art 1 Sec 8 and role of Congress to protect citizens from pirates.
