Quoting Elon Musk:

"As Twitter pursues the goal of elevating citizen journalism, media elite will try everything to stop that from happening."

Yeah - some people say they need to have a clear head to think

A clear head is what I need in order to edit

I need detritus from the day to clutter the steps my characters take
