Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed.

We're having new tile flooring installed in a couple of rooms. My 14th century-soaked brain can't help but refer to the man doing the work as Wat, and I know this to be awful of me, so rather than keep it to myself, I'm sharing it here where six or seven people might get it and shake their heads.
