One surprisingly jarring thing in these emails is Epstein’s total disinterest in fixing his own mistakes. He won’t spend an extra millisecond typing, yet there’s a mountain of emails—constant typing—and tons of it is just shooting the shit, so none of it was even that important.

Makes me so glad I didn't go the professorship route

There has to be a word for this - a system where the money comes from one central location - especially the government. GAH. There's GOT to be a name for that! It's on the tip of my tongue!
Trump: "We want a healthcare system where we pay the money to the people instead of the insurance companies. We're gonna be working on that very hard over the next short period of time. Where the people get the money. We're talking about trillions and trillions of dollars."

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Looking forward to learning all about how the right should move left to win elections tomorrow. They should maybe dye their hair pink, learn to love pronouns.

Jason Bourne (2016) knew what was coming with big tech the same way The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) knew what came out of 9/11.
Rewatching the series and the villain is always our fear of government overreach in the name of national security.

Can someone explain to me the PHENOMENON that is drive-thru espresso stands in rural Washington state? This is the highest concentration I've ever seen.
AND a majority of them aren't even bikini focused. They're just legit coffee shops in tiny buildings.

Here is what Ian got wrong.
It’s starts in the “where is the counter narrative” argument.
There is a counter argument narrative. Ian simply dismisses it for the same reason so many men do.
The Left’s argument is how men are created is the problem.
This is inherently unresolvable for men.

OK so feeling slightly apprehensive about this, which I suppose is kind of the point. This is an attempt at a progressive view on masculinity and on men getting laid. God help me. iandunt.substack.com/p/how-to-be-...

The right story narrative about male attractiveness is grounded in Social Darwinism and free market economics. Can progressives tell a better story?

Where's the "Make manifest to men that their desire to get laid doesn't supercede others' rights and to think otherwise is amoral and anti-social" write up?
Why are we giving ground on the specious import of unrestrained male libido? Aristotle would have a fit.

Bloomberg reporting that the FBI redacted Donald Trump’s name from the Epstein files.
Here’s the thing. Redacting a name doesn’t mean it’s NOT there. It confirms it IS there.
Donald Trump IS in Epstein’s list of abuses. Fascism wasn’t a deal breaker for MAGAs—I’m afraid pedophilia won’t be either😳

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes
