It's interesting to look at how Epstein directly, via hundreds of thousands of emails with his pedo buddies in academia, made US academia incredibly hostile to women for *decades*.
How many Emma Noethers never were, even before any of it was put into legislation?

I’m watching existential cartoons because they aren’t likely to be locally referential & what happens?
From “Safe Mode,” Canadian animator Justin (Umami) Tomchuk’s follow-up to “Interface” on YT.

Let's break this image down like a scene in a Kubrick film:
Costumed, distant from viewer, reflected on table, mediated by watermark.
Background is shabbily covered up.
Art behind subject indicating shadow, duality.
Empty chair.
Occupied chair: her eyes are clear while subject's aren't.

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

One month ago today this space was full with life, the new cat following me from room to room.
Tonight I took her ashes out of the cardboard box & put Circe on the altar.
I’m still in shock. Folk point to bright sides, which I understand is for them.
It’s so personal, the animal in us.

A ★★★★ review of Zodiac (2007)
If America were a flavor based on Hollywood, its most desired condiment would be "serial killer." Zodiac is the original Coke, the McDonald's fries, the perverse perfection of a gustatory stimulus that shouldn't exist. If you ask why it shouldn't, I can guess how you vote.

“If scientists can definitively say that dreams are important for problem solving, creativity, and emotion regulation, hopefully people will start to take dreams seriously as a priority for mental health and wellbeing…” 🧪😴
Nice coverage of present and future hopes for research using dream engineering — from the PhD dissertation work of Karen Konkoly @karenkonkoly.bsky.social and her new publication in the journal Neuroscience of Consciousness @nconsc.bsky.social — here at The Debrief thedebrief.org/did-scientis...
Did Scientists Just Achieve "Inception"? Experiments Show “Dream Engineering” May Be a Reality
Experiments involving playing music during sleep have revealed a type of dream engineering that doubled subjects' problem-solving abilities.

Deepak Chopra in the Epstein Files:
I’m not surprised. At all. I met him once and he is a creep.
True story: he was speaking at an event I was doing managing/doing sound for. He didn’t want a wireless lavalier. I had to go & wire him up. He was in a klatch with his handlers.
