What Else What Else? I was pretty surprised yesterday – not because Bill and Melinda Gates announced their divorce but that it was trending for hours on social media. Is it because of all the billions involved? The potential for ugliness? Am I in the minority? I don’t care all that much. Like I By Lainey • May 04, 2021 04:25 pm
