Yeah, it brings me zero pleasure to report that not only is Groening mentioned in the Epstein Emails (albeit not alongside any implications of wrongdoing), but the late Virginia Giuffre said she was forced to give him a foot massage on the Lolita Express when she was 16:

Knowing that Matt Groening flew on the Lolita Express sure makes this scene from The Simpsons S12E06 a lot more interesting:

Not only is it Black History Month. It’s also its 100th anniversary!!

To commemorate its centennial, I wrote a list of 10 Black films, one from each of the last 10 decades, to stream.

Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse at VA hospital in Minneapolis, was killed by officers of the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol last month. He is being memorialized nationwide, but chaplains at VA facilities in MA have been barred from mentioning his name -- or even counseling nurses.

More context:
According to FOX 9, a Minneapolis federal judge demanded to know why DOJ is missing deadlines & AUSA Julie Le said, "The system sucks, this job sucks" & asked to be held in contempt so she could sleep.

PACER shows she got assigned to defend the govt in 88+ cases since Operation Metro Surge started.

I have confirmed the gist of this report out of federal court in Minnesota today from a source familiar.

If you have more information about the District of Minnesota—either the court or the U.S. Attorney's Office—and how they are handling all of this, please reach out. I am at crg.32 on Signal.

Two agents involved in the shooting deaths of US citizens in Minneapolis are reportedly part of paramilitary tactical units—including ICE’s two Special Response Teams (SRT), CBP’s one SRT, and the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC)—whose extreme tactics are generally reserved for war zones.

A company with $1 trillion in market cap should be required to pay a living wage. That market cap is based on profits that are dependent on corporate welfare in the form of public assistance to its workers.

The feminist trends and ideals of modern Romantasy framed via the commercialisation of Girl Power in the 90s. A true banger of a video! As a fellow sad millennial elitist; I love it truly! Go waaaatch.
Finally got this one out! Was hard to work on this amongst everything, but I hope it adds something productive to the conversation <3

I'm now reminded of cheapskate Les Moonves who was in charge of Viacom during ENT's run and was very ridiculously fixated on making Naked News a thing.
So Paramount cancels Star Trek Prodigy and removes it from the platform but Geordie Shore has a new season. How is a quality sci fi worse than a bunch of Geordies getting drunk having sex over and over again?

Can’t tell you how refreshing it is to be living in what seems to be an anomalous political environment where the mayor really likes his city and believes it should be improved and shared.
It’s your city, from the sidewalk to the skyline. The David Dinkins Municipal Building’s rooftop is open & free to everyone, starting this June.

This guy is a great example of why the way to handle people scared of cool progressive stuff is to ignore them, do the cool progressive stuff anyway, then watch as their protests quietly fade because the cool progressive stuff is inarguably good.

3 February 1942 | A French Jewish girl, Marcelle Pizanti, was born in Vichy.

In June 1944, she was deported to #Auschwitz together with her parents. Jacob and Alice. None of them survived.

More indicative of a breakdown at the DOJ than a breakdown by the AUSA, imho.
This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

With all possible compassion for a woman on the edge, I’d also suggest that this demonstrates the pressure is working.

Grateful to all those involved in the defensive lawfare front.

It grinds my gears that Neil Gaiman can assault as many people as he wants and still have a new book coming out, while marginalized authors say one kinda tone deaf thing at a con once and lose their entire careers over it

To my view, this exchange further undermines Wolff’s claims that his relationship with Epstein was that of journalist and subject. Here, Wolff shares the pitch for funding from an accused man with Epstein, and offers commentary indicating a shared ideological commitment against the Me Too movement.
I hadn’t known this. Two men who were accused of sexual abuse on the Shitty Media Men document that I created back in 2017 reached out to Michael Wolff for help as they looked to sue me, and Wolf forwarded their concerns to Jeffrey Epstein. Epstein offered to help. www.jmail.world/thread/EFTA0...

“I have always thought that the way back from this climate is through specific instances of individuals successfully challenging their persecution,” is what Wolff writes to Epstein about an anti-Me Too retaliatory lawsuit.

There’s literally a straight line between Trump, Epstein, and the retaliatory lawsuits against women who came forward with allegations against celebrity men like Amber Heard and Blake Lively. They all even have the same PR folks. And yet people still refuse to see it

What the public does not understand about these retaliatory cases is that what is on trial is the ability for men to abuse their power against women without consequence. When women lose defamation lawsuits for speaking up, men win the right to abuse with impunity

Whether Blake Lively is a good or likeable person is not on trial. Whether women should be allowed to report sexual harassment in their workplaces without facing retaliation is what’s on trial
