It is fun to imagine that if I lived in, say, the 1890’s (within the necessary range of middle-to-upper social class) I would probably have done SO much cocaine. Whether it would be a “spiral into a deep dark addiction and be dead by forty from terrible physiological side effects” kind of thing 1/2
I am genuinely convinced that one of the reasons it used to be thought that most people grew out of ADHD as adults was how common smoking was.

When half the internet doesn't work because of a failure of a single vendor, that vendor is a utility, in the same way that power, water, and, back in the day, the phone companies, are/were utilities.

Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

They do not want to win. They do not want to listen to their base.

I think the median american who knows epstein thinks he like had 5 girls on an island and that's where all the crimes went, I don't think they realize his victim count is probably in the 4 digit category. His palm beach residence alone (which we have the only good count on) was hundreds.

In August, a judge ruled that Luigi Mangione could have a laptop to view evidence while in jail. He still hasn’t gotten one.
Maybe he should ask Ghislaine Maxwell if he can borrow hers. She's had no trouble getting one. And she’s convicted of her crime, not just accused.

I hope if nothing else it opens people's eyes to what's going on. I used to consistently hear "the media just wants clicks/ratings." If they wanted that they would be doggedly pursuing the Epstein story. But what they actually want is to help Trump rule us and ultimately enslave us
Any other time, any other President, and "the dude was in a global conspiracy to fuck them kids" would have been 24/7 coverage. Even Dubya.
I remember the fucking Lewinsky coverage. Our media have become craven hacks carrying water for rich pedophiles and I feel insane typing that but there it is.

My most woke opinion? This is probably a bit of a milquetoast take, but we should do away with landlords, because if people need it to live, it shouldn't be a commodity. Nobody should get to hoard housing, not some corporation, or individual assholes.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
