Because of his begging emails in the latest Epstein drop.

Jesus it's not hard people.

Epstein drop was two weeks before.
A week later he is being roasted for begging for party invites.
He pivots SpaceX on Sunday.
Yesterday y'all stop covering his Epstein appearances.
Why would Elon Musk pivot from Mars to the Moon all of a sudden?
SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon."

Apparently if the discord AI thinks you're old enough you'll never seen an age verification prompt.

So go post about lazy millennials and taking centrum silver and how bad the superbowl half time show was.
Discord says ‘vast majority’ of users won’t see its new age verification setup
Age prediction could be sufficient for many users.

Elon Musk's ambition to one day settle Mars appears to have taken a back seat for a rather nearer and more achievable goal – sending humans to live on the moon. https://cnn.it/46sbAMm

I knew I shouldn't have tried again. Sorry everyone.
I tried to create drafts with "Verify Jerry" but I got 400 bad Request errors back every time.

Get your apps off .net 3.5.

I only have it installed because developers on steam suck. Your two year old game shouldn’t be using .net 3.5 damn it.
