Something infuriating me every time is when one of the photos of the Epstein victims surfaces, they refer to the clearly teenage girls as "females". Won't call them women because they're clearly very very young, but don't want to call them girls because that makes it sound bad. BECAUSE IT IS BAD

It’s so funny that this guy’s entire thing is “Oh are you triggered by what I have to say about marginalized people” but he loses it when someone more well-liked than he will ever be talks about an actual injustice

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)

Good god. We've spent a decade with the British media - including the BBC - claiming that the 'gender critical' movement wanted to 'protect women and girls'.
And it turns out Jeffrey Epstein was funding part of it.

I'm not being facetious. Epstein was apparently giving talking points to the people pushing anti trans rhetoric in the UK.

Our Flag Means Death and other high-quality shows got no chance despite performing above other, higher-priority shows because they were toying around with money and screwing up production schedules, but NOW Casey Bloys gets to chuckle about how they've cracked the code on TV production.
The Pitt got greenlit for a season 3, out next February, and the announcement has very funny comment from HBO chairman Casey Bloys that’s like “yeah, turns out if you just make a TV show like how we used to make TV shows you can have a 15+ episode season every year 🤷♂️”

The UK reporting on the Epstein files focusing only on one man is so tedious. No conversation about the wider issue, its just "hOw cOuLd a RoYal DOOO sUch a ThIng!?" as if that type of billionaire should be uniquely virtuous.
