Elon Musk is a symbol of American collapse in many ways, but one of the big ones is how for years he has constantly engaged in multi-billion-dollar securities and consumer fraud, and the "consequence" has been him making billions more, including from the federal government paying him directly.

Former MCTS spokesman Mr. Sulu loved public transit so much he wouldn’t appear in the β€˜Simpsons’ monorail episode β€œYou know, there’s no transportation like public transportation.”

saw this milwaukee county transit ad he did on instagram and had to look it up. also includes the detail that he didn’t want to do the simpsons monorail episode because he didn’t want to act in something that was making fun of public transit

The dark cruelty of a contrarian small press that has pledged to print history "as is" defending its decision to remove the secret code this guy used to document his murders from his diaries as "unprintable", and so censoring the destruction of a people by editing history, is just next level.
