@OneNerdyOpinion They will generally gravitate to where they can hear a heartbeat. I've heard folks recommend putting a windup clock in the box with them, for comfort.

@Elianoayounes Out of curiosity, when do we get back out of the Sad Griege Clothes for Sad Greige Fans phase?

@jawwwn_ Aw the puzzle hunt. That was such a fun one.

@thorstenball @compiledwrong Notion happened maybe? Dropbox Paper was already on the wane.

A debris field was discovered within the search area by an ROV near the Titanic. Experts within the unified command are evaluating the information. 1/2

@ifnotnowdigital @BBCWorld They already have.

This is really important for male followers of mine to read. "Jokingly" causing uncomfort is not a defense. And being on the defensive in social interactions is not where you want to be. Read this and consider carefully. Empathy is an ascendant mental superpower, not a weakness.
