It is so shamefully dangerous to be a teenage girl in this country. It is so shamefully dangerous to be a child, period. I'm not sure there could be a vaster gulf between the right's worshipful posture towards the capital-C Child and their brutish disregard for actual, living children.

Bia is sticking her nose into your timeline to double check you’re getting enough rest. Also, drink some water and bring her a churu.

This isn’t even the stuff they’re trying to actually stop from getting out.

Quite a lot of people aren't aware how inextricably linked Starmer and McSweeney are. McSweeney is pretty much unsackable. If he goes it's the end of the PM.

Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes. Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.

Brits, we need to prepare for the fact that in the next few days it's likely emails will be released where Peter Mandelson is sending Jeffrey Epstein some truly cringe memes.

I knew that much of Labour's policy towards culture, media and sport was being made without an interest in any of the above, I just hadn't realised that was a deliberate choice until now: www.ft.com/content/e65c...

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

DROP THEM NOW

It's 'Fox News is focusing on healthcare subsidies' levels of bad, it appears.

Right now, Karoline Leavitt is being coached on how to say “ephebophilia” in the least creepy way possible.

Can none of these millionaires sex criminals write in full sentences? Have you heard of paragraphs? Punctuation? No wonder ChatGPT sounds like a genius to these clowns.

Could this conversation about our massive criminal conspiracy have been an email

I saw a gaudy Cybertruck on the road that had a big red oil drum poking out of its trunk and I thought “video games have prepared me for this moment.”

QAnon: The powerful pedophiles have invented elaborate codes to secretly discuss their crimes that require decades of interpretation Actual powerful pedophile: Hey Jeff hope this email find you well last week was great so when we meeting up to do pedophilia again

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

My god (sorry I’m late on a bunch of this stuff. But wow!) According to this NYT report, the head of the FBI and the Attorney General are holding meetings *in the Situation Room* with GOP lawmakers they are trying to pressure to rescind their votes to release the Epstein info. This is madness.

every generation gets the moon landing they deserve

pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

Shameless plug: For a year, I've been working on a series about the vast systems that underlie life in most of the world. Built up over generations, these systems are the cathedrals of our time--but all too few of us know anything about them, and they're all at risk of failing. Here's the latest:

Time in the 2020s is such a construct.

TBC I have little doubt that multiple intelligence services viewed him as an “asset” since he knew tons of powerful people, had dirt on some percentage of them, and was himself vulnerable to pressure.

Not trying to widen the political divide but I just think it would be good to have a president who isnt a pedophile

First They Ignore You, Then They Laugh at You, Then They Attack You, Then You Win.

FUCK YEAH CLAIRE!!

I hereby apologize to Eyes Wide Shut for thinking it was hyperbolic

Oh, we’re here again:

just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:

Farage says he's "boycotting the BBC" all the time. Here he is last year. Normally lasts until the next invitation comes.

I regret to inform y'all that we are now far enough into 2025 for me to create this year's TV Shows That Aired in 2025 list (to assist all in end-of-year coverage). As always, this is a LIVING DOCUMENT: Feel free to comment with potential issues/changes! docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

BREAKING: Rep. Adelita Grijalva signs the Epstein discharge petition, serving as the 218th vote to force the bill to the floor for a full vote of the House.

More US-based academics exit the United States, including world famous astronomer Sara Seager 🔭🧪 www.utoronto.ca/news/new-con...

Obviously these people are, on a literal, factual level, insane. But it's interesting to think about this in terms of what it suggests about the actual function of bus fares and similar user fees: to keep undesirable people out of public spaces.

Sometimes you just need deep fried cornbread and homemade ice cream.

If you're keeping social media score: This is a self-own of not appreciating cultural context. Such moderation failures disproportionately affect non-English speakers and other similar groups; thus, this is an iceberg tip in the shape of a country music reference. Very bad look for BS here.

on the other site, a magnificent post of extraordinary proportions

I am stuck in traffic and the teen boys in the car in the next lane are wearing so much axe body spray I can smell it from here.

millennials: perfect angels

time for liberals to start asking themselves why the Democratic party, confronting a historically unpopular, pedophile president, is completely unable to resist his agenda

Theatre skill I will always have: Finding my light

Seen a few of the epstein emails now, all with different people and it's not the main issue here but is everyone illiterate

When I call MAGA/GOP post-truth, this is what I mean. It’s hard for people who value truth to fully grasp. “But don’t they care about underlying facts? Don’t they worry it’ll come out?” No, they really don’t. They reject that factual reality matters. Words are just things you say to get something.

When your theory of the case rests on someone acting in a way that could be characterized as THIS absurd and self-destructive, it's possible your theory of the case is...incomplete.

CEO saying “It’s important to assume every game company is now using AI" is so foolish it's almost funny. "It's important to assume everyone's this terrible, so you accept how terrible we're being" 🫠 Imagine a guy like "to understand why robbed him you must first accept that many robberies occur"

Bia is just poking her head into your timeline because it’s lunchtime. JAZZ PAW!

We gotta have a clear term for people so cynical they become gullible.

Please do not use "AI-slop" to illustrate your articles or presentations. If you need images and have none just use one of the free stock image sites. It's not harder and doesn't make you look like a dumbass.

why are they "trad wives" and not "girls gone laura ingalls wilder"

"The BBC isn’t perfect – but it’s ours. If we don’t defend it now, we may lose a cornerstone of British democracy."
