➡️ Subscribing to X: Anyone I know on here on the subs plan? What has been your experience?

Don’t forget … joy comes in the morning

Plan ahead Pray it through Pay it forward … 🤷🏻What else fits in the sequence?

Thinking back to 2010. You couldn’t plant a church without Twitter in those days 😆

AirPods fair remarkably well in the washing machine actually..

Would it be good to have ‘fact check’ subtitles that pop up to help us unpick what’s being said in the debate?
