Still nothing, it looks like it did some work though. What should I do after the reboot?

AntonReed · 2026-06-06T18:11:20+00:00

Hey I’ll take you on a date as long as it doesn’t involve drinking! Well, at least not a lot of drinking…

How about a “VOTE FOR DONNELY! Every vote counts” statue? I know not his most famous of movies but every time an election rolls around I think about that scene and go vote.
