I wouldn't be remotely surprised if some redneck shot up a train only to have it release a bunch of balloons like some sort of meta gender reveal of '23

Make it a gender neutral announcement and the whole thing would wrap back on itself nicely.

I don’t wanna make it sound like it doesn’t happen all the time, as in very frequently, but I don’t accept that everything as a cover-up or a distraction. What is this distract him from? People said the balloons were just a distraction from the derailments. So what are they hiding from? Kind of a rhetorical, kind of a serious question.
