“I’m automatically attracted to beautiful [women]—I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything … Grab them by the p—y. You can do anything.” #280characters https://t.co/ShAnYFOsHk

Aaaaand the taking advantage of the new update in its purest form.

Things you can do with #280characters (as a bear):
-Be more detailed and thorough in lists you create to help explore bearness and the many facets of being a bear within the context of the forest and other aspects of daily bear living regarding all bearness
-Squirrel poems maybe?
