Don't change the pdf extension on some of the Epstein files to make them viewable videos! Not only disturbing, but also exposes you to criminal prosecution, if you retain them on storage media you own.

About the Epstein File PDFs that are Actually Movies - DON'T DO IT!! DON'T VIEW THEM!
People have discovered that there are dozens - maybe hundreds or even thousands - of files in the Epstein files release that are actually videos or images, but “mislabelled” as .pdf files.

I'm wondering what the Tarrant County results say about the new reddish districts TX, MO, and NC created with their 2025 redistricting.
I'll bet I'm not the only one wondering.

I worked on a software engineering contract at PacBell in San Ramon for a few months in the early 90's. Scott Adams was still working there, though his star had definitely begun to rise, and he was beginning to see a real income from it. "Dilbert" cartoons were visible in every cubicle.

I'm wondering how long we have before the billionaire-owned platforms simply refuse to share video uploaded by ordinary people, or worse, serve up a non-stop torrent of AI-generated fantasy that supports the administration's narrative.

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation
Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

It seems weird to me that Trump disliked the Time cover because of neck folds. I disliked it because it made him look serious and statesmanlike, instead of how he usually comes across: deranged, incoherent, and bloated, with dandelion-fluff hair and splotchy, poorly-applied orange makeup.
