Epstein was a sick pedo bastard that was also a racist that dabbled in misogyny.
Black girls & women go missing in this country daily but the MSM barely reports on it.

Epstein emailed with Silicon Valley elites about racist, eugenicist ideas
Recently released emails show Epstein discussed the appeal of fascism and population control through climate change with AI theorists who have ties to prominent tech billionaires.

I bet he could do two, possibly even three. At that point he'd probably start making fart noises to stall for time.

Some people want to act like we have no influence over the Democrats as if we didn't watch them all flip on gay marriage in real-time
Even if you fully intend to vote for whoever the Democratic nominee ends up being, there’s a huge difference between doing that quietly in November 2028 and loudly announcing it years in advance with zero conditions attached.
What's the purpose of saying that there's no position so extreme that someone could lose your vote? Especially this far out? You're effectively giving possible candidates the all clear to move as far right as they'd like. This seems foolish.

my pet crankpot argument is that we ACTUALLY should just double the Celsius scale for daily living: 0 is water freezing at sea level, 200 is water boiling at sea level. this gives all the sanity of Celsius for math and concept, and like 99% of the utility of Fahrenheit for daily life
