Elon, if you don’t understand that defending freedom is a basic tenet of what makes America great and keeps us safe, maybe you should leave it to those of us who do.

In a job interview, @seandelliot pointed out that my lack of sports images could impact my chances of getting hired. Fast forward a couple of years, and sports seems to be all I do. While I enjoy it, I wish I had more variety in my assignments & more job opportunities overall.
