Ghislaine Maxwell has offered to exonerate Donald Trump in the Epstein case in exchange for clemency. Journalist @carolecadwalla.bsky.social notes this “naked transactionalism” mirrors Jeffrey Epstein’s own business model of running a “global trade in favors” among the rich and powerful.

The Ups and Downs for SFA Ep 5 started playing again on YouTube and I remembered Chiwetel Ejiofor starred in 12 Years A Slave which was first adapted in 1984 for PBS as Solomon Northrup's Odyssey.

It starred, in his first screen role, Avery Brooks.

Coincidence?

Between this and the video of Ian McKellen being mesmerising quoting Shakespeare’s Stranger’s Case on Colbert, it’s been a good couple of days for hope, humour and humanity in politics. Also: literally every press conference should have a mini podium and some kids like this.
Reporter: Do any of you have a favorite animal?

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake.
