One of the judges stopped, walked over to her, and asked if she wanted to show her dog as well.
This is what happened..

It’s always mind boggling to think that our continent is moving at such big speeds! At this rate, we’ve moved ~3m NE since I was born! 🤯

This will end in tears, well, tears of joy from people that propagate false information. Everyone knows that the first tweet always wins, the correction never gets the same reach. The false tweet will be send, screen capped and shared. This is not going to end well.

Supermarket interaction with a complete stranger just now:
Her: Why are you wearing a mask?
Me: Pardon?
Her: Why are you wearing a mask?
Me: It helps me mind my own fucking business.
Her: You don’t have to be rude.
Me: Neither do you, but here we are.
