Was home invaded & robbed.
Sus', incorrectly ID'd as he, she is factually a murderous bitch, who has been eating our house, home & furniture, not figuratively, all summer.
The murder (manslaughter?) was of a baby pigeon under the deck. 🧵

For a lawyer he doesn’t seem to know how the law actually works but for a pedophile he seems quite well practiced
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 just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

And I have a flat tire. Please, if anyone needs art done for them, consider hiring me.
Hey, I'm going to be honest, I've had some rotten luck these last couple months. About three different projects got cancelled, so, if you need covers, pages, posters, album art, and you like my style, please consider hiring me.

Ever watch ye olde Brit shows from back then? It's depressing AF. Ppl were still pooping in their backyards in 1975. If they had any, their teeth were madly off in all directions. Adulthood was filling out UB40s & queuing for pogey. Nostalgic for grubby, post war poverty? Try some Plays for Today 😑
"What is certain, and felt instinctively by almost everybody, is that things cannot go on in their present way" – The Times, May 1975

“It is difficult to imagine a previous period when such an all-pervasive hopelessness was exhibited at all levels of British life” – Professor Stephen Haseler, 1975

Do political science profs have to explain to their students that, for most of American history, it was actually borderline unthinkable that elected officials and their spokespersons would constantly talk like trashy reality show contestants?
After calling Schumer a "Palestinian," Leavitt refers to "Gavin Newscum." So she's just ripping off her boss's smears now.

"why don't women want to have more kids?!"

Because you made a country they want to flee.
"In 2025, 40% of women aged 15 to 44 say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. The current figure is four times higher than the 10% who shared this desire in 2014, when it was generally in line with other age and gender groups."

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

This is the thing . . . and also the only victims they can really get away with systematically targeting are other Black folks, especially Black women and queer people. Who society doesn't care about.
Unfortunately, the Black community has its own issues with supporting known pedos. However, the pedos in our community rarely have the ability to systematize their evil at the scale Epstein did.
