Elon Musk has been having an existential crisis wrapped in a panic attack uninterrupted for multiple years. It's crazy how money can insulate you from meaningful criticism and consequences, but also from anyone caring about or helping you. This is the loneliest man alive. Ha ha. The little bitch.
Elon Musk is over on Twitter posting his sad/pathetic Ai prompts.

I used to say this trial was a waste of taxpayer dollars, but I think it’s totally worth it.
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."
