"Some girl with a funny name" is the most important detail in this from the standpoint of assessing credibility

That's obviously Ghislaine Maxwell and also obviously not the way anyone making a wholly false report would refer to Maxwell
“He raped me.”

“Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.”

“She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.”

Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

This is genuinely horrifying. Fact-free far-right agitprop given accolades by credible media across the political spectrum.

I feel the same way about music, and I think the battle is lost there – most people, I think, consider that if listening doesn’t give them what they already know they wanted, then they are not interested – for me, I want to learn more, absorb more, understand more. To be stretching

The Kate Bush Christmas Special feat. Peter Gabriel (1979)

Amongst the plethora of classic televised Christmas specials are lesser-known outliers that haven’t become ubiquitous holiday viewing. Case in point: The Kate Bush Christmas Special (1979).

Weird how The Free Press was able to publish all of these without comment from the Washigton University Transgender Center at St. Louis Children's Hospital.

Dude did a minute long riff on his wife's underwear, but when your job as a member of the mainstream media is sane washing the incoherent ramblings of a guy who keeps the lights on in your building, the public must be told he's just doing normal President stuff🙃

a big part of the issue surrounding the use of chatgpt/LLMs in academic research comes down to process vs. product. a lot of us know that the process of doing research matters because that's where intellectual work is done; but some "academics" and lots of techies only care about a fast product

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release.

AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

This is also an all-electric building. You can see the CO2 heat pump water heaters on the roof in this photo, which were prefabricated with the tanks and dropped into place. For every kW of electricity, 3 kW of heat is produced.
