    2 weeks is plenty of time for a shallow, skin-only graze to heal. And ear cuts can bleed a ton.

      Ears, scalp, cuticles… all places that bleed like crazy.

      In addition, a competent plastic surgeon would likely make it look like it had never happened. I hope he goes to jail for the crimes he committed, but do people really expect him to wear an ear diaper the rest of his life?

        Honestly, I thought he would milk it until the election somehow. We can’t be right all the time I guess!

          Note that I believe he will milk it forever, but he’s also fairly vain.

        He wears orange facepaint every day, so yeah, I did.

      I was thinking the same thing. But something tells me the people who’d be in charge of banning the photographer, if not Musk himself, wouldn’t know that.

      There was supposedly a big chunk out of his ear. Now it’s just a skin-only graze that heals super fast? Very convenient
