The woke scolds are trying to make this about racism. But Musk is right. It's about historical and scientific integrity. When the God of Thunder disguises himself as a swan to seduce and fuck a queen and the resulting baby hatches from an egg, *of course* the baby will be white. It's just science.

A technology called X that slowly drives people crazy and makes them believe friends and colleagues have become part of a secret cult-like organisation called The Blob sounds like the plot of a high amphetamine consumption era Philip K Dick story rather than our current reality

it's probably Natalie Portman, who has a 5-2-2 via a neuroscience paper authored with Abigail Baird, appearing in A Powerful Noise Live with Sarah Michelle Geller (who appeared with Bacon in The Air I Breathe), and who appeared in New York, I Love You, which had a segment co-directed by Ratner.
