I'm sorry, but as a potion seller, I cannot participate in actions that would kill a beast, let alone a man, regardless of whether you are going into battle. It goes against my code of honour to give you my strongest potions. Are there any weaker potions I can help you with?

dudes will fave a tweet that’s like “let’s rock and roll” without knowing what it’s about and that’s wonderful. i’m proud to be a dude

centralized decision-making with chat ai will have extremely exponentiated second order effects on people's psyche. i recommend abstaining entirely, but if you cannot then you need to consider who you're trusting, the power they wield, and the information you're handing them.

Now we reverse the POV!

(Poll in next tweet)

You're having a rough one over the course of a few months. During that, you hang out with a new friend. You are signaling engagement and enjoyment. You thank them for taking the time to hang out and say you enjoyed it.

You have an acquaintance you've hung out with a few times. Each time the vibes have been really nice. It seems they're going through a tough time.
