"I've never met Epstein!"
"OK, but I didn't know him well"
"OK, but it was before We Knew"
"OK, but I never flew on his plane"
"OK, but never visited LSJ"
"OK, but I did nothing illegal"
"OK, well it's hearsay. I'm not in the files"
"What *IS* pedophilia, anyway, man?" <-- We are here
Dershowitz: The predecessor on your show described Epstein as a convicted pedophile. He pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. That’s not a pedophile.

I, for one, am relieved all the stores will finally stop the Partially Muscled Skeleton songs they've been playing for the past two months.
Goodness me, I stayed up late reading and it’s already Partially Muscled Skeleton Screaming by the Perimeter Fence Day. Hope you’ve all been good this year!

A big problem that the mainstream media eventually needs to account for: if the mainstream media missed a cabal of rich pedophiles, who were so convinced that they would never be held accountable that they put all their sex crimes in emails, what is the use of having journalism?

Growing up in a time when “selling out” was the most shameful thing you could do and then being forced to live through the 2020s feels like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

Nah. This is the face of a man who learned to timidly type on an Olympia Carrera, and hasn't lost his hunt-and-peck habits decades into the PC era. This man knows exactly where he was when Challenger exploded. He has a 1972 Miami Dolphins game ball autographed by Howard Twilley.

If you have to get permission to teach in your area of expertise from people who are definitionally not qualified to adjudicate your expertise then you are no longer working at a university.

You’re working at a state propaganda factory.

It's another layer of national degradation and moral decline to see the political media treat child rape like just another horserace issue.

This has been my takeaway from the latest tranche of Epstein material, too.

It's one thing to outsmart titans of industry and politics, whom we now know are quite credulous--but seeing Epstein's scattershot diction merits re-examining the credulity of all the scientists who stayed in his orbit.
One of the striking things in Epstein's emails is how fucking inarticulate he is, and how *every other billionaire is just as bad at communicating*.

They're the exact textual equivalents of any interview with Altman or Musk or Thiel etc just fucking babbling incoherent word salad.
