This is your daily reminder that this really did happen.

As shameless as Musk. A Tesla owner was driving a Tesla Model 3 when he hit and killed a groundhog at 6900 Shore Pkwy around 10:40. Hit and run. Animal control was contacted about the incident.

There is a fake account that is in no way affiliated with Speaker Pelosi pretending to be her. I reported it the other day and it’s still up.

It would be great if you all could give me a hand in reporting it. ❤️

I could not sit silent while an elected official who spreads hate & lies that are getting trans people killed pretends to care about the future of the Internet.
