Extremely obvious combing through this who is redacted and why. It's Epstein, Maxwell, a lot of Bill Clinton, maybe Michael Jackson (?) and basically nobody else. Everybody else's head is in a black rectangle. In practice, they didn't release shit.

This is like when I diet by skipping breakfast and then somehow pack in four meals between lunch and dinner.

Scott Santens: "the mountain of evidence—from the plains of Namibia to the towns of Canada, from the plasma centers of the US to the tribal lands of the Cherokee—the signal is clear: Poverty is a policy choice, and crime is one of its side effects." scottsantens.substack.com/p/elon-musk-...

I was frankly a lot more comfortable with the idea that the CCP would have my data than these people

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

Shout out to O Come All Ye Faithful for being the only popular Christmas carol that explicitly rejects the Arian heresy

All super rich guys sound the same now. It’s all “I sleep four hours a night and spend the other twenty hours a day developing a product that’s going to bring us the best widespread poverty anyone’s ever seen.”

Crypto Leaders Call For Infusion Of 20 Million Dopes To Stabilize Market

Without going into too much detail, a friend of mine is on the management side of a negotiating team with a union (he's personally very pro-union), and his take on this stuff is that if you have serious labor relations problems it's because you're dumb.

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

marxism for me is the ultimate "love the band hate the fans" school of thought. the Tool of ideologies

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important. We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

This mural has gone up in Kingston, ostensibly for Christmas but AI has ensured it's actually to celebrate the return of our dark lord Cthulhu

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans: Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet. So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

I WANT TO HOST ONE OF THESE

Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

This Maintenance Week we thought we’d highlight the reality of maintaining historic churches. Although thought to be a less glamorous aspect of our work, maintenance requires great skills and expertise.
