deeply intrigued by the fact that the current conservative line of defense is "hey he wasnt so bad, the girls he raped could have been even younger. its almost like he raped adult women, which as we all know is moral and good"

Kanopy is so good, man. Y'all sleep on this platform too much but it's a must if your library offers access to it.
LEAVING KANOPY THIS MONTH I haven't done this in a while! If you don't have Kanopy it's free with a library card! TONS of good classics so I'll highlight a few less obvious ones

Dear Jim,
First of all, I *love* this idea! Unfortunately, I spoke with Legal and identified a few issues with this approach. For starters…
Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

HEY BTW this is why I hate the argument "minimum wage shouldn't be a living wage b/c it's fun money for teens" DID U KNOW there are teens who work b/c they actually need $$$?? Maybe if min wage were more than $7.25/hr this poor kid wouldn't have felt pressured to have sex with MATT FUCKING GAETZ

it's been hard to put this feeling into words, but we've spent the past couple of decades being lectured to and patronized by an elite class that spent its free time joshing with jeffrey epstein about his little sex abuse empire while lecturing us about how out of touch we are

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

It’s funny to think about how right wingers treat someone like Zohran as if he’s going to do another 9/11 when he’s just some guy from New York vs. how they treat the Syrian president, who was an actual top level member of Al-Qaeda

The QAnon stuff posited that Democrats were using clever euphemisms involving ordering pizza to communicate with one another about child trafficking, but the actual reality is that these rich assholes were just e-mailing, like, "Hey, remember when you molested [actual victim's name]? Lol."

As I sometimes like to mention, s the only reason you know who Jeffrey Epstein is (that is, if you weren't one of his friends/clients/beneficiaries) is because Ms Brown, below, broke the story of his sweetheart deal to get out of the 2008 trafficking charges.

Harry Potter's now been used as a blunt tool to murder trans people for so long that no one under 30 remembers Rowling as a writer who is a bigot, but as a bigot who used to be a famous writer.

Someone talking about it sounds like someone organically getting very excited about Jared Leto.
