There’s also the fact it’s explicitly illegal for them to do it for that reason.
As others have noted, these redactions appear to be blatantly illegal (assuming Fox News' report is correct).

They booked a bunch of 14 year old models to come to a Mar A Lago party, told them to dress sexy and tried to ply them with alcohol.
These are the people who are willing to go on the record.

The thing about genetics is, these two mice are both females of the exact same age who have had the exact same diet and activities for their entire lives.

I've been thinking about this over the last couple of years and its connection to COVID. There is a lot more brain injury out there from repeated infections, and I'm wondering if everyone pretending COVID is not still happening has allowed a whole generation to suffer life-altering injuries.

there’s a quote I love which I believe is originally from Paul Tillich, though I first heard it from a book by Ann Lamott: “The opposite of faith is not doubt; it is certainty.”

An excellent and thoughtful thread regarding game design.
For yrs I've pondered a paradox:
1) The fact that crunch is poisonous to creative work
2) The fact that many of my favorite games were made with crunch
My answer:
Crunch allows a team to naively reach a crucial creative state, at high personal cost.
It can be reached w/o crunch

This is one of the things that's often missing from online discussions of anti-capitalist theory. The question that actually determines our socioeconomic status and fate is this:
Do you live off what you're paid for your own labor, or off the profits you draw from the labor of others?

I can’t believe you idiots are still arguing with me about this. Idc what your job is paying you now, you still have to labor for your money. You’re working class.
All it takes is an unfortunate accident or illness for you to be in the poor house. Medical debt and fallout would cripple you. Stfu.

All of you are poor. These hypothetical poor people everyone is discussing are us. We’re poor. Idc if you make 6 figures or not. You’re poor too.

When my grandmother was 9 years old, she and her family lived in Texas and they were extremely poor. She lived with her mother and stepfather and three sisters. My great-grandmother made all their clothes, and they scrimped on everything so that they had enough to eat.

There's a joke about the origins of many Jewish holidays: "They tried to kill us, they failed, let's eat."
But some of us *were* killed in those days, and some were killed today.
This is a holiday about hope, persistence, and light shining when it shouldn't be possible.
May all the killing end.
