This is absolutely insane. Is there no charge of vehicular manslaughter in Australia? The punishment is not proportionate to the crime. Driver fined $2,000 and disqualified for killing Melbourne student Jack Davey - ABC News share.google/4tJ7FrJtcNFlRqN…

"Should I trust the Dark Lord who attempted to topple the White City of Gondor? Or do I trust the Elf Queen representing the coalition of Men and Elves who defeated Sauron when he tried to enslave the Free Peoples, but could maybe do more meet-and-greets?"

How is it possible to get so irritated with a bot? The @NYTGames wordlebot makes me angry regardless of how well or poorly I do. Today I solved in 2 guesses and it was like "oh, you just got lucky. Didn't show much skill." 🤬

Egg white omelette but make it with butter and pimento cheese and have it at lunch with a drink. The perfect mix of healthy and so bad for you. 😂

Always a delight watching @leander both on and off the court 😄
I will never understand high pile carpet on airport terminal walkways. Absolutely nonsensical decision from a customer perspective.

Taylor’s reverie is interrupted by a phone call. It’s Roger Goodell, commissioner of the NFL and, as of five months ago, Taylor’s indentured servant. She answers on the last ring. “You don’t call me,” she says. “I call you.”

Such an inspiring day at the @Telstra national business awards today. So many amazing companies doing innovative things and I have so much respect for all of them. Excited to reveal the winners tomorrow. :)
