@molly0xfff That last part could get them disbarred, couldn't it?
@molly0xfff Neither SBF nor his parents seem to recognize how cringe this is.

@molly0xfff I snapped, clapped and howled at this edition’s headline when it hit my email inbox🫰👏🫶

@molly0xfff Came for the news update. Stayed for the humor.
