I like turtles.
I love lamp

Nice.
A group of investor plaintiffs sued Musk for securities fraud alleging that Musk lied about the number of spam accounts on Twitter as part of a plan to drive down the company’s stock price and manipulate the terms of his acquisition.
You know what I find funny in all of this.

- How it’s going: Musk suing people for showing everyone Nazi shit next to Disney ads.
I tell you, that 180° there, life comes at some folks fast.
he’s a pioneer of the criminal emoji space… certified emblem of trollkind…
