If exposing child rapists is bad for your national security, you’ve got nothing worth protecting

The only way we are going to see the truth in the Epstein Files is if someone leaks it.

Men, listen to what other men say to and about women. If a woman tells you she sees a red flag, remember that as a potential victim her *safety* is at risk, not your ego.

To those who say illegals should be rounded up as lawbreakers, do you also support locking up those who break the law by hiring illegals? Because that would actually work--curb illegal immigration without the brutality or absurd waste.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

Best case: The President of the United States knew about a pedophilia ring and did nothing to stop it.
Medium case: He also used his office to protect the perpetrators.
Worst case: Because he was one of the perpetrators.

It's not uncommon for trauma survivors to struggle w/ decisions so small we feel ashamed to admit we struggle w/ them-- but that's what a history of having been gaslit or belittled does to our nervous system. Questions of what to wear or where to eat evoke paralysis years later.

I do think it would be amazing if hundreds of protesters just showed up dressed like ICE. They’d be absolutely baffled, they’d have no way to tell who’s who. They’re all dressed in off-the-rack Cabelas clothes since they don’t seem to have a standard uniform so it’s easy.

Who's going to Midwest Bunfest? We love seeing all of our friends, and meeting new ones! Our bunnies won't be going this year, since they can't handle rolling around in the wagon like Bop & Rock.
I'll include details below, if you're interested!
