The ghost of Thomas Midgley Jr. fucked up the editing in an attempt to hide the truth about leaded gasoline, but we've fixed it now. Thanks to hexbear.net user comi for telling us about the problem.

And Elon Musk continues to be a turbo-douche, this time in his attempt to buy twitter for some reason, ostensibly to do with “free speech.” We also cover the Starbucks union, new CAFE standards, the wet fart ending of the “People’s Convoy,” and how leaded gasoline fucks up peoples’ brains. Timestamps in the notes below.
