Posted on December 26, 2022 by mikethemadbiologist

I’m absolutely fascinated, in a car wreck kind of way, watching Elongated Muskrat repeatedly punch himself in the nuts. Not only is elon stonks go down (aka ‘Tesla share prices are dropping’), but he seems to be crappifying Twitter at … Continue reading →

Posted on December 16, 2022 by mikethemadbiologist

Last night, Twitter suspended the accounts of a bunch of reporters, including one for that far-left, über woke media outlet, The Voice of America (what I’m calling The Night of the Long Hair Plugs). Anyway, my HAWT TAEK is this: … Continue reading →
