good moments, but not great luck.
But for the Senate and stuff, it was freaking amazing.
And so I don't even know what I think about it right now, leaving aside the ethics, leaving aside the environmental impacts just as like a tool.
I definitely like it, but I'm not sure I can't figure out how much of this is overblown and how much isn't.

Even though it would have made me happy, even though it would have been useful, even though I'm more than capable of achieving it,
