If I could ignore Donald Trump’s bonkers Truth Social posts for the last two years, I can ignore his bonkers tweets too.

Things I’ve learned from teaching Music Appreciation, Part 1:

@nailogical @_nicole003 I tried this (with your suggested brand of thinner) and my glossy taco is still super stringy. 😭 Do I just need to use a lot more thinner?
