I just don't understand how the musk was even able to get this position! It's like the orange one is just doing whatever he wants, and somehow it's perfectly fine?
"I can't pay for a hospital bill if I never get out!!"

I don't know if it's healthy, but I'm dealing with this with absurd grandiose fantasy of being in whatever that place was in Atlas Shrugged while the rest of the US fell apart due to values such that greed<pride<incompetence, and that greed was high to begin with, and I'm the Dagney that stays and watches it as long as I can. I don't really feel good about being so detached, like "yeah, I had no access to my money for a while and did fine. I'd do better than the rich a-holes up the hill who probably haven't even lived here long enough for a week (or two or three)- long power outage and couldn't survive without a backup generator or even a little one."
I wrote shyt and then the computer shut down...wow...what a coincidence... if you don''t hear from me, you know I was right
