If you take down a Confederate memorial that was literally dedicated to promote white supremacy, that’s “erasing history.”
But if you hide pictures of accomplished women, that’s just fighting wokeness.

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

Everyone’s worried about the tariffs but I’m just going to start buying everything at airport duty-free stores. I’ll be eating the finest Toblerone and cigarettes for the next four years, suckers!

Musk comes from a family that moved to South Africa *for* the racism. He has repeatedly endorsed Great Replacement Theory in the US & Neo-Nazis of the AfD in Germany. He championed the rights of white nationalists and restored Nazi accounts to Twitter.
But I'm sure the Nazi salute was an accident.

My relationship with Big wasn’t the only thing I blew up that day. At the Trinity test site I detonated the first plutonium bomb, unleashing a 22 kiloton blast. Had I become Death, destroyer of worlds? Meanwhile uptown, Samantha had her hands full with her own “Manhattan project”

todays my birthday.
it’s also the day 16 years ago I discovered that a customer for the data center I worked at had racked 3 full cabinets with over $200k of brand new server hardware on top of $80 of canned soda from our customer lounge vending machine to avoid spending $600 on mounting rails

This is the worst premise for an escape room I’ve ever seen. A real wizards “treasure” is their wisdom and relationships.
