Sounds great in principle, until you realise that, presumably, anyone with the same first name/last name as someone in the report will be flagged.
A new tool lets you search the Epstein files for mentions of your LinkedIn contacts. Tried it out, does work. Outputs a report with links to the material on the DOJ website.

I'm not much of a sports fan, but I do love the Winter Olympics. I suspect because the vast majority of the sports are, at heart, just a series of novel and interesting ways of falling down a mountain.

with the Olympics coming up, I cannot recommend enough just picking random sports and getting really into them at a moment's notice

I am *facinated* that on feast days when the Church desk diary fills almost the entire days page with collects and readings, leaving just one or two lines on the page to add appointments/to do’, it doesn’t include an additional space to use as *checks notes* a diary 🫤 Stuff still needs doing.
