btw, since i've seen this mistake several times in the last week:
it's not 'been put through the ringer.' what would that mean. what would the ringer do to you.
it's the wringer. a device for squishing the water out of clothes so they'll dry faster on the line. wringing them out.

we need to slow down a little I'm so serious. all these quick short videos on tiktok, ig reels, and youtube, artists releasing quick little songs for the trend, tv shows releasing episodes at once, people using chat gpt and google ai overview because they get answers quickly but no validation done for the source, we need to sloww downn i really do not think our brains should be running this fast
