Currently, the outrage to the visible contents of the Epstein files is so mild that I have to think the majority of people just aren't even casually checking them. I can't think of a phrase to describe what I've read even as a forensic analyst. "Cartoonishly evil" is too gentle. Horrific. Inhuman.

@kennethhite.bsky.social @robindlaws.bsky.social as a child, was captivated by the haunting at the Borley Rectory. Am now thinking about an Esoterrorist scenario derived from remarks you both made during KARTAS #94-- it started as a hoax, but now people believe in it, and the membrane there is thin

Very impressive. Françoise Thom, who may be France's premier Russia analyst, writing before release of the Epstein files had a very firm grip on what they would show in terms of Epstein's relationship with the Russian intelligence services and what they were up to in the US, UK and EU.

I've read some pretty direct and outspoken court orders from judges before, but none as withering toward the government as this one
I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.

But did you look at the judge's order?

It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

Jim Jarmusch’s Collages
(Luc Sante - The Paris Review)
#JimJarmusch #Collage

Jim Jarmusch’s small, eerie collages are all about faces. And about the bodies attached to those faces. And about what happens when faces get switched off onto other bodies.

Jim Jarmusch’s Collages by Lucy Sante
September 7, 2021 – “You could say that Jarmusch, ever the director, is engaging in exploratory casting,” writes Lucy Sante in her foreword to a new collection of Jim Jarmusch’s collages.

Fascinating thread from Mr. Scott-Railton--
Someone spun up a social network for AI agents.

Almost immediately some began strategizing how to establish covert communications channels to hide from humans.

In many cases the agents are on machines that have access to personal data.
