All righty, we got the all clear this time.

Thousands of years before Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert got under President Trump's skin, ancient Greek and Roman poets and philosophers paid a heavy price for displeasing heads of state.
Dear literally every company but mostly Zoom right now: I do not want your AI chatbot, and I especially do not want it taking up 1/3 of my window space to the detriment of everything I use your app for. I don't want tips for icebreakers, I want to have my meeting.
