The user experience is still... rough. ｣ https://michael-dev-tech.github.io/Website/matrix.html #discord #matrix #ageverification

We’ve got resilience. We’ve got the plan. We’ve got the focus. We’ll respond – we are going to focus on what we can control. We are going to build.” https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-canada-us-trade-deal-tariffs-mark-carney-donald-trump-august-22/ #canada #tradewar #tariffs
