Saw a brainrot video today:
This school brings in a polyglot—someone who speaks many languages—to tell students why its important to learn other languages.

This morning my kids were arguing about Friday’s plans with Grandma.
The older sister was trying to tell the younger brother Friday’s plan, and he was arguing back with his understanding of the plan.

We choose help people that we like, people that make us happy.
We like people that are similar to ourselves. People that remind us of our best attributes.
