Unless you have ignored the news for the past decade, you are probably aware of the conjoined twins, Abby & Brittany. The conjoined twins recently were married (congratulations!!! 🥂) & are living their lives like everyday folks in America.
Conjoined Twins married & enjoying life
Recently, a video was posted explaining the biological science behind how the twins’ fused bodies function and how they harmoniously function together as one.
Anatomy of Abby & Brittany’s body
It is fascinating that each has independent hearts, a pair of lungs, stomachs, brains, and spinal cords—and they share three kidneys.
They also had a third arm at birth, but doctors removed that around the time when they were born.
Aside from being fused, the conjoined twins live full, active lives. However, if you see them in person, please refrain from photographing them, as they apparently do not like it.
Happy New Years everyone! I pray everyone enjoyed celebrating New Years Day, & that they are looking forward towards improving in 2025 (come what may).
I know New Years Resolutions are really popular, & if you are wondering what mine are, it is not to make any! 🤪
Joking aside, I do want to improve myself physically throughout the year, & strive to thrive in 2025, as we all know what is coming near the end of January.
You do not know‽ It starts with a “T” & is five letters long. It is Trump Taxes! 😜 (filing starts on January 27th in the United States 🇺🇸)

New Years Resolutions From The Fediverse
So I was scrolling through the Fediverse & I came across some interesting New Years Resolutions people are mentioning.
My New Year’s resolution is to make it through 2025 without accidentally filling a form out with 2024 as the date.
My 2025 New Year’s resolution is to own more armor and swords ✨ (@taint_behavin on Threads)
That sounds cool!
My New Year’s resolution is to train a rat to draft court filings like we’re in a legal ratatouille (@[email protected] on Threads)
I loathe rats 🐀 so no way! 🙅🏾♂️
2024 was very challenging. My New Year’s resolution is to do a better job concealing my New Jersey drone fleet. (@kyle on Mister Computer)
😂 If you will not tell, then I will not either!
I saw someone recently say instead of New Year Resolutions they make a bingo card of things they’d like to do/experiences they’d like to have and it worked much better. (@thomas on PHPC Social)
my new years resolution is to be soft, fluffy, and to contribute to the downfall of my enemies (@eri on Moth Zone)
😅 Yeah, I would not want to get on their bad side!
A lot of people don’t like the concept of resolutions and goals at new year, because it’s arbitrary and silly.
But I love it, this time of year always seems like a fresh start after the holidays and if there’s one thing I pretty much always need it’s a break and a fresh start!
I’ve made myself a wonderfully complex goal-accomplishing plan for 2025, and trust me it’s a thing of beauty.
Probably won’t get around to even half of it, but it certainly looks more achieveable once it’s all written down 😁
That is true. Perhaps typing out a detailed New Years Resolution in private is a better alternative to not making one at all. Even if you do not achieve all of your goals, you should at least be able to achieve half of them.

My New Years Resolutions
Well, it would not be fair to post others New Years Resolutions & not post mine (which are more or less simple)
Move to California: find an affordable place to live & migrate to the west coast. I have lived in the Northeast & Southeast, & I would enjoy a change of pace & scenery.
Finish typing up a book (something I am currently working on right now—as a side project or hobby)
Exercise more: Yes, I need to lose that COVID gut of mine! 💪🏾
Travel the world with my future wife: once we settle down, we want to travel to more exotic places, albeit on a budget! 😅
Buy & renovate inexpensive houses in Japan 🇯🇵, Nigeria 🇳🇬, Sierra Leone 🇸🇱, & maybe Italy 🇮🇹. Housing prices are expensive nowadays, but there are places that are affordable.
Travel to the Moon! 🌖 Okay, this has always been a dream of mine, & for better or worse requires assistance from Elon Musk. I will however NOT go up on the first rocket! 🚀 😂
Those are my New Years Resolutions so far. Anyways, be blessed everyone! Stay safe & stay sane in 2025!
