Huh. Usually the chain is removed so no one gets hurt or has to be careful.

Am I wrong that the chain is in place?

I wouldn’t be surprised that Musky just grabbed a chainsaw with no safety precautions.

Do you think Elon gives enough of a shit to ask someone?

He got so mad at the government telling him no that he overthrew the US government.

I would hope it's at least a super dull chain, but something tells me that's not it.
