Gonna be taking a loooong and very hot shower to scrape the filth off me after reading all this

weird, what could today's youth possibly have to be anxious about

in case you're wondering how the cope is going www.mediamatters.org/megyn-kelly/...

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck? It's the Pope in 1982.

Maybe it's my Autism Brain or whatever, but I don't really get why anyone who had access to this stuff wouldn't have splashed these horrific revelations literally everywhere the second you knew about them. Take these fuckers down.

The idea that sexual abuse is part of “private” life instead of a public crisis has done incalculable damage. Anti-rape activists have to fight to even make it possible to expose sexual abuse as a wrongdoing in public without being silenced and undermined. That fight is far from won

Would be helpful if the journalists who fawn over #ElonMusk would follow his actions supporting fascism at the expense of democracies around the world. AfD are literal unabashed Nazis. He appeared virtually at a campaign rally. h/t @notesfrompoland.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/note...

Anyone know if there's an AAA scam going around or did I get nailed by some AI weirdness just now

This continuing resolution was already a bad bill, but now it’s worse. Republicans slipped in a provision to give hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars to some GOP Senators connected to Jan 6, but they still do nothing to improve health care. 🧵

The more time passes, the more it seems that if someone was described as "misunderstood" it means "he was a sexual predator and we were all cool with it"

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed

*taps mic* *clears throat* It is a global far right power grab

i mean you don't NOT get why conspiracy theorists imagine a grand web of powerful people all covering each other's asses on days like this

Right, these are the two options: Either they tolerated Epstein's eugenics to get to the sex crimes or they tolerated his sex crimes to get to the eugenics

This future imagining is sobering and important

Really wild how all these Harvard scientists and mathematics guys constantly talked about how Jeffrey Epstein was this brilliant, "misunderstood" man and then you read his emails and he's clearly a barely literate lecher, extremely easy to understand

my brain can't process how horrifying all these powerful people are because if I let it sink in I will probably scream for the rest of the week, so it keeps tripping over the fact that they're all borderline illiterate weirdos talking about doing crimes on gmail

man we need a way to say "the moral rot and depravity of this country's elite must be burned out of it with cleansing fire" that isn't wildly reactionary-coded

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

Wild how every single member of the political and business elite went into full drooling fascism the second the prospect of consequences for abhorrent behavior started to seem possible

We have some good neighbors.

"The more-than-300 comments responding to that anonymous post are full of mothers looking for property in New Jersey or Florida, predicting that Mamdani’s promise to make buses free will lead criminals to rape and kill innocent passengers." LMAO @ UES mommies crashing out

The Epstein files are clearly more damning than we assumed, which is saying something.

What if instead of Cyber Monday (aka Daddy Bezos Day), we did a Support Indie Media Monday? What are your favorite indie publications? Who are some of your favorite freelance and indie reporters and commentators? Can we make this a thing?

Aside from every other repulsive thing about these Epstein emails, they offer direct confirmation of Michael Wolff as one of the sketchiest creeps in a teeming universe of gross behavior

Every month for the last 77 years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics has estimated Americans' unemployment rate This streak dies tomorrow Govt staff could not survey Americans about whether they're working or looking for work in Oct, the 1st time in 934 months This blind spot will remain forever

I have decided that The Diplomat exists in the same universe as Slow Horses in the same way that Succession exists in the Ferris Buelker's Day Off universe

A Washington judge said images taken by Flock cameras are "not exempt from disclosure" in public record requests.

Finally a good photo op for the big lighted cross I pass on walks.

Amazing how many criminals get together and decide the first order of business is emailing each other about the crimes every three minutes

As Karoline Leavitt concludes her press briefing and walks off, @andrewfeinberg.com asks: "What was the president doing with Virginia Giuffre for hours at Epstein's house?" She did not respond.

i know folks are making good cracks at this, but i think he’s about to order a bunch of war crimes on venezuela as a distraction

It's getting cold in a lot of places. You can send a case of 50 gloves, men's undies, women's undies, stocking caps, or socks to your nearest shelter, mutual aid group, or community closet for between $45 and $75. bagsinbulk.com

New today at Science Advances from @kshoub.bsky.social and me. We revisit the question of whether a local tragedy (mass shooting) influences voter behavior. They do, at least at the local level, with some important caveats and implications for policy. Short thread... www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

I didn't know about this and am horrified. it just destroys the entire notion of, for example, poetry

The account owner of @sarahkendzior.bsky.social was suspended for 72 hours for expressing a desire to shoot the author of an article. The post, made 11/10, stated: "I want to shoot the author of this article just to watch him die." 1/2

Q: "Why are White House officials…meeting with Rep. Boebert in an effort to try to get her to not sign this petition calling for the release of the [Epstein] files?" Leavitt: "I'm not going to detail conversations that took place in the situation room."

Good afternoon from inside federal court, where Kat Abughazaleh, Andre Martin, Michael Rabbitt, Catherine Sharp, Joselyn Walsh and Brian Straw are set to be arraigned before Judge Heather McShain momentarily Follow for updates:

The US Mint has ended production of the penny after 230 years.

This is so weak

This appears to be an exchange from former NYT reporter Thomas Landon Jr. to Jeffrey Epstein in 2016

everyone in portland, go do this now.

sure sex is great but have you ever had a growing and persistent sense of dread that turned out to be horribly, sickeningly justified

Another point: I cannot say 100% certain but the quality of video changed drastically the day Sora was released. The videos look like they're Sora videos, and they follow Sora tropes (Walmart, McDonald's). The biggest, most "valuable" companies on Earth are enabling and pushing this shit on people

Meanwhile, people I know have had their Meta accounts suspended within minutes after posting nonspecific complaints about ICE helicopters circling.
