I realized the other day; I have more gratitude for a cast iron pan than some folks have for their entire fortunes. Greed is an illness. Humble up.

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.
We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.
Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.
