Chairman woke me for brekky this morning. I thought it was around 6-ish. It was, in fact, 3:30. Then he mocked me at 6:30 by requesting second breakfast. He’s a monster.

To the people who think racist authoritarians should be posting more on Bluesky: What the actual fuck is wrong with you, fuck off with that mealy-mouth "both sides" bullshit, thank you for your attention, now go fuck yourselves
