I get asked: "If I forgive someone, does that mean I have to stay in relationship with them?". The answer: No. But oddly, if you DON'T forgive someone, you're choosing to stay in relationship with them. They're still playing a toxic role in your life. Forgiveness is freedom.

To me this is what GTA VI needs to be all about.

AI is scary. But, I mean, this song had to exist. I wrote the lyrics ten minutes ago and it's clearly going to be one of those country music smash hits that makes everybody cry. This song had to exist. And it's going to make me some serious BANK. $$$$$$$$$$
