I don't really believe the conspiracy theories about Kubrick being murdered but I do absolutely believe in the theory that the Victor Zeigler character was based on/inspired specifically by Jeffrey Epstein.

Today we learned that child molester Jeffrey Epstein really did kill himself, and in a suicide note told another child molester that Donald Trump is also a child molester.

Middle school teacher telling me about a girl in the cafeteria who never has money for lunch. They give her the form for free lunch in Spanish and even offer to get a translator to talk to her parents. Girl admits that her parents won’t put any information on a government form, because of ICE.

so a thing just occurred to me. a downside of declaring a blockade against venezuela is it makes it easier for other large powers in different parts of the world, say asia, to blockade, say for instance democratic islands, and cloak it as lawful

ICE cut off her wedding ring. Sue Tincher is a 55-year-old American citizen: a grandmother, 5’4’, and white. Just in case you thought you’d be safe. She walked to her neighbor’s house after getting alerts that ICE was nearby. She stood across the street and asked an officer if they were ICE.

Compared with older adults, young adults are especially likely to get news from Instagram and TikTok. The difference is stark even between those ages 18 to 29 and the next oldest age group, ages 30 to 49.

It’s wrong to lump all top Trump people in one category. There are differences among them. But they do seem to fall into three (sometimes overlapping) categories: • Ordinary criminals (grift and corruption). • Sex criminals. • War criminals.
