Well, yeah, as a horror fan it's likely a little too spoofy to be terribly engaging, but it sounds like you might specifically be 'not' a fan of that.

If it's never occurred to you to label yourself a horror fan, but kind of like movies in general, you'll probably get a kick out of it.

Seems like a reasonable chance, kind of the first universal end, and it doubles as a two sided option. Micro was nearly there if it hasn't been so horrid on the physical hardware side.

Except that isn't even safe, just paranoid. Sometimes accidents happen because you're trying to prevent accidents

You're probably getting suggestions for what she should do different because, at least at a starting point, it could just as easily be something her phone is doing before sending as it is something your phone is doing on the receiving end.

I've had a phone say 'video to big, do you want to crop or share through abc app' before. Don't recall the exact message, but seems more likely than you phone downgrading something it's receiving.

There's obviously been a drop in his coherence, but it's not like he was smart and now he's dumb... He's always babbled bullshit at a 5th grade level at best, he's just had enough money and undeserved confidence behind him that he could mostly muddle through an interview just sounding smarmy and punchable.... Now he's also dealing with dementia to the point where he literally can't remember what he started bullshitting about.

Do you have any hints at what would make you consider him not stupid, historically? Being confident and narcissistic, and even talented at bullshit doesn't make you smart. And recognizing weaknesses in the system isn't really smart, even if it is perceptive, when those weaknesses are really just strong arm tactics that happen to be available to him through brazenness, inheritance, litigation, cruelty and others recognizing him as a convenient money laundering option.

That's not a good parallel, it's the politically 'motivated' part he's referring to. If someone is being prosecuted because they're running for office, and you have a legitimate argument that if they had chosen not to run for office the charges would have been dropped, it's legitimate to say it's politically motivated.

On the other hand, if your crime was literally campaign finance crimes and voter manipulation, there's a reasonable argument that 'politically motivated' isn't necessarily a bad thing here. If you did a political crime, and seem likely to continue to be politically motivated to commit more crimes, it kind of makes sense that prosecuting you with a tiny bit of political intent isn't totally unreasonable.

Maybe they'll find Leon working at Four Season Total Landscaping

Well it was just a joke based on the fact that Al and AI look identical in most fonts, and difficult distinguish in most others.

Yeah, guess i meant i doubt Walmart chooses to sell his chocolate based on the chocolate. I mean it could be fine, but unless he's really talented in chocolate making and extremely economical, I'm reasonably sure they're selling a box with the name 'Mr Beast' on it that happens to contain chocolate. If that name ever becomes neutral or negative in driving sales, i would be shocked if they keep it based on quality.

Imagine the suspension of intellect it must take to admit that Russia is willing to pay you push the narrative you are already pushing, or are willing to push, and then considering yourself a victim for doing it.

You weren't the target, you were the tool.
