That table cloth can't be hard to find, leaker getting fired.
- Boys got calf's on him. Drinking beer on a mat on the floor. Interesting find
  The phone he's taken the picture on is horrible. Really bad quality

This looks so nice imo. I'm thinking of waiting for the pixel 9 or 10, but it'll be hard after seeing how good this is shaping up to be 🥲.
Hopefully the battery life see's some major improvements too!
- I think Pixel 10 is a good number 😂
