i'm trying not to constantly post about it but all the shit about epstein is boiling my head cos it's not actually news. the media has completely failed in their role to make it clear the news here is the authorities were fully aware of both epstein and his network.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Rob Reiner wanted to make The Princess Bride
- a story about a father sharing his favourite book with his son - because it was his favourite book, given to him by his father Carl Reiner.
That act of love became a grandfather reading to his grandson on screen.

Apparently we’ve established that if the US can seize the largest tanker off Venezuela, it can just as easily seize a small, alleged drug boat without murdering the occupants.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia wasn't supposed to be released.

He was released.

Indiana was supposed to gerrymander.

It didn't.

Maybe ordinary people fighting, and not waiting for some savior, is the way to go? As that community organizer said, "WE are the ones we've been waiting for."

That sound you heard was every GOP elected official with a lick of sense absolutely SHITTING themselves thinking about the visual of Mark Kelly back in uniform before a military court as Whiskey Pete's handpicked chucklefucks try to railroad him on bogus charges.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Watching people pour through the released Epstein files and just thinking how much better things would be if reputible, responsible, morally centered journalists had been fully engaged with the Epstein story from the beginning.

You’d think “Jeffrey Epstein offered our reporter pictures of the president with bikini-clad girls in Epstein’s kitchen” would be a story all on its own, no?

If you're writing any historical fiction set in the UK in the first half of the 20th century, I can't recommend www.1900s.org.uk enough.

It's run by a retired academic who's trying to archive what life was like then for normal people, and it's got all kinds of little details you'd never make up.

Does this mean that married women could be forced to have their passports in their maiden names? Are passports used to attest to historical facts at birth or to prove citizenship? If the latter, what is the need of the former?

Look I don’t get any food aid from the govt, never have, but if a grocery offered discounts to people who had lost SNAP? Not only would I NOT feel cheated in some way, I’d be more likely to shop there, on the grounds of “at least they have some human decency”

I think that ban is wrong.
