Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
Stuff like this makes me wonder why there hasn't been any reporting about Trump having affairs during his presidencies

For the record, this is why it's inaccurate to suggest that the NY Times is just transiently and in good faith wrong on trans issues. They embarked on their hate campaign specifically because they were already in the paedophile class and their other friends in the paedophile class told them to.
@nytimes.com caught red handed. Journalism is a sham. They were in the tank for Trump. Never give them a cent.

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.
Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.
Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.

One horrific thing to me is that the president- a man who has gotten away with everything including literal murder up to this point- seems extremely nervous about anything regarding Epstein coming out. Like how bad does it have to be

New — Israeli forces just killed this Palestinian boy.
Last month, he and his family were harvesting olives. Soldiers bombarded them with tear gas, making him collapse.
He was in critical condition until today.
He is the 47th kid killed by Israeli soldiers and settlers in the West Bank this year.

After almost three decades, Canada has lost its measles elimination status.
That means in 2025, this extremely contagious disease spread consistently in our country for the first time since 1998.
This was preventable, which makes it embarrassing -- in more ways than you might realize:

Wow: Per Hamdi's legal team, his only charge was a visa overstay — after Trump revoked his visa.
Despite DHS tweeting that Hamdi supported terrorism, they never charged him with any criminality.
In other words: Trump revoked a journalist's visa, so agents could arrest him for overstaying his visa.

NEW: British journalist Sami Hamdi is being released from US detention.
Trump administration agents detained him two weeks ago at the San Francisco airport — hours after he addressed an event, where he urged US leaders to take an “America First” approach rather than “Israel First.”

I’ve seen a lot of people say recently that narrative games can’t actually make player choices meaningfully matter because of exponential scaling issues.
To that I say, the first episode of Scarlet Hollow is free.
And if you remain a disbeliever, you can buy the rest of the game and keep playing.
