      Most rad. He'll be able to ride that story out for decades, pun kinda intended.

      Unrelated, but:

      There is something heartwarming and uplifting about the concept of everybody dropping what they are doing to answer a call for help, like the Beacons of Minas Tirith being lit and Rohan answering Gondor’s cry for aid, the great lengths sailors will go to for a rescue gives hope that humanity will figure things out when the excrement hits the fan.

      This article is AI as fuck.

      Please love yourself.

            This morning?😄😄😄
