An unelected broligarch and his merry band of unripened incels have hacked our bank accounts, Bird flu is raging, TB is is spreading, planes are falling out of the sky, Trump’s planning Gaz-a-Largo and eggs are more expensive than ever, but at least we’re getting plastic straws back.

The unelected illegal immigrant President Musk’s approval rating has gone from 47% to 29% in 3 months. I’d prefer 0% with an added deportation and arrest.
