If you worked hard, learned a craft, and spent countless hours honing it and I took your work without asking you and used it to enrich myself and my talentless tech bro buddies, how would you feel?

I mean, have you driven recently? Seems like it’s already started.

I remember one critic called it “Dances with Smurfs”

I can’t wait for the first story about how someone’s email account got deleted because they said something less than complimentary about man child Musk on Twatter.

Online Manchester United fans. I’ve never seen such a set of ignorant, fickle, judgmental pricks anywhere else.
