This can't be real. It can't be.

We could be in gas chambers and as long as they were built by Elon Musk the ADL would tell us to “take a breath”

marrying aces isn’t a sacrifice or compromise

His child is a victim of abuse too. What he’s doing to that kid is sexual abuse

Thinking about that Gaiman article and how despite being millionaires who could easily hire a trained professional as a nanny on contract, his wife and him chose a penniless young woman with no family or friends who could be abused with impunity. Didn’t pay her too
