WWII Veteran and Purple Heart recipient Robert Hilliard:
"Next week I'll be 101 years old. In February 1944 when I was 18 years old I was inducted into the army and what they taught me to do there was to kill people who set up detention camps. Can you imagine how I felt earlier this year when they announced that one of the future detention camps would be at that same camp landing in Florida? We have a fascist, a fascist government, that allows innocent people to be put in detention camps and incarcerated."

i bought one of those margaritaville machines on facebook marketplace for $100. i took it home and realized some pieces were missing. so i messaged her really nicely and she agreed to meet me again because her husband was the one who packed it up and forgot all the pieces. i got there and she gave me the missing pieces AND my $100 back for me having to come meet her twice and she said "youre young and fun take that money and buy really good tequila for those margaritas!" i will never forget her!
When my boss told me he used AI to help him buy his first car, and I said “That must be lonely. Do you not have friends to ask about that kind of thing?” and signed off of Slack and left the company
