As an American with some Italian blood in me who has been to hollywood once, I would appreciate if you stopped spreading the secrets of my superiors.

I remember a while back, I was too busy for a little while to use Duo and came back to the widget trying to guilt trip me into using it. Because I missed like half a week. It’s so toxic and honestly isn’t even that useful for learning. So I uninstalled that shit immediately.
