The Epstein stuff is always so amazing to me because it's like "yes he was a sex criminal but if you can get past that, he was also an avowed eugenicist"

Epstein seems to have been the Forest Gump of sex crimes
Jeffrey Epstein advised Steve Bannon that the lawyers representing Brett Kavanaugh in his confirmation hearing should accuse Christine Blasey Ford of being on medications that cause false memories or memory loss.

The nice thing about being autigender and specifying my pronouns as "he/whatever" is that you literally cannot get it wrong and any choice makes me happy. Mess up and assume I'm cis male? All good, conventional, totally great. Use they/them? Very respectful, thank you. She/her? Delightful, love it.

I ride a bike as my primary vehicle, which means I have lots of bike-car interactions. People park in the bike lane, get enraged at me taking a lane when needed, drive too close, honk right next to me, etc. I'm often loud and rude, because my life depends on it. (This is also about autism) 🧵

All of this is confirming my belief that Republicans never learn from a loss and Democrats never learn from a win
“People are blaming republicans for food prices and flight cancellations and health insurance costs and are furious about gilded ballrooms and Gatsby parties and the president is falling asleep on tv and is the most deeply unpopular president in history, time to cave” is a hell of an argument

The thing this always reminds me of is the apocryphal stories of, like, a cargo cult or somesuch hearing a radio for the first time and thinking there must be a tiny man trapped inside.
Sometimes I see people like 20 tweets deep into an argument with Grok. Like, what are you doing brother? You are trying to win an argument with a vending machine.
