Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

We still don’t know where Laure Ferrari, 46, got the £885,000 that she used to purchase her and Nigel Farage’s constituency home near Clacton-on-Sea. 🤔
Two donors to Nigel Farage’s partner Laure Ferrari convicted of fraud, money-laundering and forgery. Belgian court rules that Daniel Pawlowiec and Marian Szolucha illegally funnelled over £100,000—largely in public funds—to the think tank she ran.
