There has long been enough evidence to indict and the slow release is intended to 1) further torment Epstein victims 2) get Americans used to child rape by elites 3) flaunt impunity, since there have been no meaningful consequences for perpetrators 4) arrive right when AI casts everything in doubt.

I think this should be emphasized more often -- the worst people on earth are also dork ass losers.
His version of decadence was like.
Sitting around in a bland room in boxers with a 14 year old running the iTunes and another giving him an awkward neck rub.
I can't get over that photo.
It's straightforwardly evil and also straightforwardly pathetic.

Elon Musk and the United States did this.
We didn't create the famine, but we provided for people (as we fucking should) and then savagely cut those programs with NOTHING ELSE in place after people depended on us.
Damn them all. They're swimming in the blood.

Amid soaring starvation in the Kakuma Refugee Camp, one young mother of two said she had considered taking her own life to save her children, “because I heard the U.N. takes care of the kids when the parents are gone.”
After Trump Officials Cut Food Aid to Kenya, Children Starved to Death

I'm one of countless scientists whose early career was shaped by visits to and research at NCAR. It's both an intellectual and architectural marvel, really a jewel of American science, and honestly this news just breaks my heart!
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

I'm not even going to repost a screengrab of his post about Rob Reiner but man it really needs to be said every single day: Trump truly is the biggest piece of shit in the world, a man of absolutely no good qualities and seemingly limitless bad ones. Support for him is just so damning.

I’m 44 years old and until this very day I sincerely believed “Ringo Starr” was what it said on his birth certificate
like it never occurred to me to doubt that a pair of British parents would name a child Ringo

We just accept it because it’s always been this way but ‘Ringo Starr’ is a bonkers thing to call yourself when the other guys are John, Paul, and George. It’s like having a band where everyone else uses their real name and then the drummer goes yes please call me Crackers Creamsworth

God i hate dealing with Pokemon for Christmas presents. There are like 5 figures at the store, and if your kid happens to want a different one, congratulations, that one is from 2 years ago and costs 200% more on eBay. Or shall I buy more TCG cards? Surely our apartment isn't filled with them yet!

Brunch and concerts and Netflix and shopping and sports will not sustain us, and that is what a lot of kids watch the adults around them spend their free time on. We have built this shitty societal infrastructure by pushing to the sidelines what matters, which is lifelong learning, art, and love

Every prompt to chatbot software is “generate me some text.” If it generated you some text, it performed its function correctly. It never lies, it never wants anything, it’s text generating software that generates text.
Not wanting to disappoint you so much that it lies is the last quality I want in a computer.

And THAT'S why Trump does weird things like bragging about not paying taxes for 19 years, or bragging about sexually assaulting women, or hanging his mug shot in the Oval Office...the point is not that he got arrested or evaded taxes or assaulted women.
The point is: he got away with all of it.

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

It will not come from anywhere else.

when RWers say "grooming" they mean "threatening my patriarchal sexual authority, corrupting my property, damaging my goods." they don't actually mean anything to do with sexual abuse, which they see as perfectly permissible under the right circumstances.
