I just filed my taxes and at the end TurboTax (yeah, I know...) asked me if I wanted to create "Trump accounts" for my kids. I have no clue what that is but I know I absolutely do not want that. Ever. wtf.
Taylor LorenzThis anthropomorphized framing of Grok in the media (claiming that Grok has "apologized") only serves the interests of these tech companies.

@alice Ibanez has some entry-level guitars around $200. I'd recommend either getting something you can play first or expect to potentially pay to get it setup if the action is too high (or learn how to adjust it yourself). My first guitar had really high action and I used heavy gauge strings so it was really tough to play but I didn't know any better or how to fix it which made everything worse (harder to get better, sounded worse unnecessarily, hurt to play/got tired faster).
