You know how for people, language changes over time? Some languages rise and fall. People study languages in school. Communities develop new words, and old words are repurposed for the times.

Superpower idea – swap places
I think it would be a cool power to be able to swap physical locations with anyone in the world.

It would be really convenient forContinue reading “Superpower idea – swap places”

Air (2023) Review
I watched this movie as part of a company event. The movie theater had a bunch of my coworkers, but I didn’t know any of them so I sat by myself. I’m not sure if watching movies at movie theaters alone has been normalized in our society yet, but it seemed perfectly good to me.Continue reading “Air (2023) Review”
