Someone is going to die when their social security is erroneously cut off and I hope Elon Musk is convicted of murder when it happens.

Dearest,
The winds of war shift, and with them, the tides of sentiment among the people. There is growing resistance against the merchant Musk, whose wares, once coveted, are now despised.

I trust this missive finds you in fair health and sturdier spirits than those among us here in camp. I regret to inform you that our modest supply of milk has all but vanished for the day, for our poor milkman has taken gravely ill—along with several of his faithful fellows.

I get milk delivered from a local dairy. I had been waxing poetic over how INCREDIBLE it was... discovered I'd been putting half & half in my cereal all week.
It really was delicious.

Clearly, the universe has aligned with the truth that airport rules apply during this administration. I pray we all survive, but if not, we'll top our cereal with chocolate chips and hot honey open the way down. #airportrules #endtimes

It's not enough to resign when ordered to violate your oath, to file lawsuits after illegal orders are carried out, hoping the courts will help. Chain the doors shut when DOGE arrives, refuse to carry out illegal orders or resign, put the burden on them to ask the courts to force you to comply.

Elon Musk is the embodiment of "Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt." Everyone thought he was a genius when they didn't know anything about him. Now? ...he's just an insecure, Nazi, dick who cheats at video games and lies about it. #gross
