Trying to reconcile the vaguely 40-year-old-Victorian-gentleman-sounding diction in these texts that the FBI says Robinson sent to his roommate with the terminally-online memebot persona that aligns with the messages he inscribed on the bullets and the images in his social media trail 🤔
After reading the note, the roommate responded, "What?????????????? You're joking, right????"

I am still ok my love, but am stuck in orem for a little while longer yet.
Shouldn't be long until I can come home, but I gotta grab my rifle still. To be honest I had hoped to keep this secret till I died of old age. I am sorry to involve you.
you weren't the one who did it right????
I am, I'm sorry
I thought they caught the person?
no, they grabbed some crazy old dude, then interrogated someone in similar clothing. I had planned to grab my rifle from my drop point shortly after, but most of that side of town got locked down. Its quiet, almost enough to get out, but theres one vehicle lingering.
Why?
Why did I do it?
Yeah
I had enough of his hatred. Some hate can't be negotiated out. If I am able to grab my rifle unseen, I will have left no evidence. Going to attempt to retrieve it again, hopefully they have moved on. I haven't seen anything about them finding it.
How long have you been planning this?
a bit over a week I believe. I can get close to it but there is a squad car parked right by it. I think they already swept that spot, but I don't wanna chance it
I'm wishing I had circled back and grabbed it as soon as I got to my vehicle... I'm worried what my old man would do if I didn't bring back grandpas rifle... idek if it had a serial number, but it wouldn't trace to me.
I worry about prints I had to leave it in a bush where I changed outfits. didn't have the ability or time to bring it with. .... I might have to abandon it and hope they don't find prints. how the fuck will I explain losing it to my old man
only thing I left was the rifle wrapped in a towel
remember how I was engraving bullets? The fuckin messages are mostly a big meme, if I see "notices bulge uwu" on fox new I might have a stroke alright im gonna have to leave it, that really fucking sucks.

YES. I've been saying we need to connect the Epstein coverup to the oligarchy -because that's what billionaires do. They use people's bodies and throw them away - whether cheap labor or rape. They believe they are entitled to our bodies, and Trump is covering up his role in that.
