Elon’s solution to the cyber harassment problem - let’s just make it part of product? What a moron

That boy’s mother is working 2 jobs to feed her kids and protect them from the horrors of the world. What an innocent time

Looks kinda like the Nainithal/Bheemtal area. If so, I think there’s a Shiva temple upstream of this bridge
