Every swimsuit brand sticks a hot guy in speedos and charges $70 for the promise of becoming that guy. Anyone found a cute, more affordable option?

How are you using social media these days? Posting, scrolling, DMing, deleting?
Which app do you delete and redownload the most?

Oh yeah lemme just switch my 3 am winter break sleep schedule back over to my 10 pm work sleep schedule real quick 😬
