The violin is smaller than a human hair and has "laid the groundwork" for future research.

      The violin is a microscopic image rather than a playable instrument and has not been officially confirmed as the world’s smallest violin, the university said.

      “Officially”. What’s the governing body for this?

        MSNBC Recap of the situation.

        Basically Musk attacked Trump on Twitter over the big bill. It’s been escalating rapidly with Musk insinuating Trump should be impeached and threatening to start a “centrist” political party and Trump threatening Elon’s government contracts.

          Actually, a Musk party might be the best thing that happens to the US political system.

          Not because it would be a good party, but because it may lower the bar for more parties.

          Yesh. I’m familiar with the trump v. Musk thing. I was poking light fun at OP’s typo : Elon v. Musk.

    Considering the spat between Trump and Musk, this is very well timed.

    … more like “the groundwork for future memes” I suppose
