My question about the Epstein files: why does someone who allegedly has a conscience, who's calling for their release, not simply leak them? Like there's a bunch of illegal redactions and obvious criminals here. Someone with access can just...release them.

Watching people I once respected and admired talking about a lot of stuff they don't understand and are exhaustingly wrong about from both sides of the spectrum has been so very tiring. I feel distinctly less safe around lots of people now.

Please contribute if you're able or share the original if you're not.

Note that the most effective way to get help for people is to directly ask people you know

Kinda Fucked Up that in our lifetimes we've gone from "never share personal info on the internet" to "hand over your identity to the most incompetent corporations imaginable".

It will now be impossible to believe any film wherein powerful people suffer consequences for bad behaviour. We're watching that simply...not happen. At all.

This is so deeply embarrassing for a director who's made such quality films in the past.

I know it's overwhelming. You don't have to save the world. Just help people. I can't stress that enough. Take care of friends, community, and yourself. Be confident, approachable, and calm. We will win, no matter how long it takes, and you are better and more important than the bad guys.

If a book, movie or game (or any other creative endeavour) employs GenAI to make it, just don't buy it. That's it. No money for scabs.
