Mahahah oh no. Lay down to sleep and brain took my original casting and did something so much better with it 🤣 Still working out the angels, since this has totally changed everything.
Had the "A Life Less Ordinary" soundtrack playing while I was doing some crafting and it had been a while and, of course, now my brain is starting to do its thing again, I suddenly got walloped with an OFMD au 👀
It happened once before but I was swamped so I pushed it down, but now...

and we know it because a lot of them were still contacting him and spending time with him *after* his joke of a conviction back in 2009.
it’s not necessarily that all these people in the epstein files participated in the raping of girls it’s that none of them cared and if he hadn’t been arrested and died they’d still be out there trying to be his friend

Apple & Google removed ICE tracking apps in their app stores.

TikTok reportedly suppressed videos criticizing ICE & the shooting of Alex Pretti.

Meta blocked Facebook groups tracking ICE & links to a database of agents that the government wants to keep secret.

I've got Odysseus from Epic playing in the background while I do some cleaning and every time I listen to it, I get the shivers that not only is the music a reprise of Polyphemus, but it goes waaaaaay further than that with the callbacks and parallels (1/?)

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.

Decide. Who are you?

In the 2024 election, nearly a quarter of women aged 18 to 24 voted for the Green Party – roughly double the number of young men who voted for Reform. Yet “predictably”, it was the young men voting Reform that “got all the attention”, said @gabyhinsliff.bsky.social.
