You know society wouldn't even skip a beat if we arrested all the billionaires tomorrow, right? They're not adding anything to society. They're provably taking everything away. Everybody could keep on doing the same thing that they're doing now and things would immediately start to get better...

screeners need to start asking if people recently travelled to the US

wasn't expecting the Todd Howard jumpscare, but at least he wasn't just there to announce Skyrim again ig

🤔 It’s definitely not suspicious at all to have people point out your common Twitter sign off is in the Epstein files and ten completely delete your yacht’s logs right?

Mark Gatiss: “The Disney money obviously did something, but in the end, it’s essentially a spooky show. It’s a weird show. And that’s what I’ve always adored about it. It’s not like anything else. And actually when it tries to be like something else, it’s not Doctor Who.”

I believe that by definition, a great many of the meetings with Epstein that people and the law take issue with were done "in the presence of others". What were the approximate ages of those others

[upbeat zohran voice] I'm here at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany, where 80 years ago some important progressive work started [smash cut] but hasn't ended. So here's what we're doing:

You know things are good and normal when the governor is passing the Things That Should Be Obvious Are Now Explicit Just In Case Those Guys Get Any Ideas Act.

wow that sucks for them they should eat their service pieces over it

Both of those shootings literally did have body cam footage, which tells you how meaningful this actually is in preventing more murders.

i think if they’re trying to normalize calling people the r word again like it’s the 90s then we should match that throwback and be allowed to normalize curb stomping nazis

I can’t get over the “insult to the author” part of his complaint. Because everyone knows there was an author who wrote the Odyssey down with pen and paper and oral storytelling had nothing to do with it at all.

For those curious, I think this is what he's referring to.

Many are saying this.

The Pitt got greenlit for a season 3, out next February, and the announcement has very funny comment from HBO chairman Casey Bloys that’s like “yeah, turns out if you just make a TV show like how we used to make TV shows you can have a 15+ episode season every year 🤷‍♂️”

the epstein stuff is so gross it exceeds my capacity to process any of it while maintaining my ability to function. why are rich people so stupid and mean and gross.

The feds who murdered Alex Pretti were ID’d, one whose ex-wife said he became a “gun enthusiast” by the time they split in 2021. www.propublica.org/article/alex...

Joanne’s team reached out to Epstein. Not the reverse. And years after he’d already been committed. This would destroy anyone else’s career, but Joanne will just look at the reports, say something smug, blame trans people some more, and then go bathe in her endless money.

A really under-discussed thread around Jeffrey Epstein is that he was also a white supremacist who was actively invested in mainstreaming white nationalist positions.

A year ago: We need TAXES on the WEALTHY Now: We need a cleansing fire

I feel like these files really build a deeply compelling case for a massive, confiscatory wealth tax that functionally abolishes billionaires, if we were in a country with a remotely extant socialist politics.

For decades the Right has daydreamed about saving their country from monsters, they finally got the chance and it turns out they love the monsters. The monsters are even monstrous in the exact ways they fantasized about! You never have to listen to these guys about anything again

Elon Musk confirmed "worst hang of all time," asked to leave Pedophile Island for being too weird and sweaty

I really need to flag that Musk comes across as one of the biggest perverts in the files to date. Not just commiserating or flattering or what have you but actively trolling for an invite to Pedophile Island parties after the sex trafficking conviction.

Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous, indeed

nature is healing

it was definitely a blockage and not an ill-advised early attempt at sounding

“Epstein plausibly responsible for /pol” is too much for me

Palestine solidarity graffiti in Melbourne on the offices of the ruling Labor Party in protest of the upcoming visit by the Israeli PM Isaac Herzog

One reason you can't just tinker with ICE/CBP is the whole thing is facially illegitimate. The intent is rotten. It's run by a white supremacist maniac and will continue producing white supremacist maniac results

microsoft's stock and relevance has fallen due to many reasons of their own making, including but not limited to them shoehorning gen ai worse than any other company, anti consumer practices galore and being besties with the idf but their takeaway from this is "people just don't like gaming anymore"

The good news is all the brazen, cartoonish corruption makes it easier to run on an anti-oligarchy, good government platform. The bad news is you still need candidates who want to do that

One of my cats finished bothering me and walked out of the room at the same moment as the other one walked in. They're working shifts. I swear I saw them nod when they passed each other

She has to be ready like this because the far right has been on overdrive targeting her. She’s always subject to harassment but the last few weeks it’s been assassination-level bad. Honestly disturbing he got this close before being grabbed.

Body cams for government thugs are a joke obviously but here's my compromise idea: shock collars for government thugs

I *really* dislike Youtube's AI intergration. Like ofc generative AI already sucks, but couldn't you find a better use for the Torment Nexus™️ than having it make summaries of videos that just end up being made redundant by the TITLE AND THUMBNAIL?

ah. the ram im using costs over €700 now. even 16gb ddr3 is about €100 now. sam altman is public enemy number one

The BBC claims to have “research” that supports its decision to use abusive transphobic terms for trans women. But it will not share that “research”. At the most basic level research is not research if it is not published. It is just a lie. The BBC is lying.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Also, I keep hearing people say “the Trekkie fandom is toxic”. These assholes are not really Trekkies. I’ve been to the cons, I’ve been doing reviews and podcasts for nearly a decade. These people weren’t part of the community. They’re showing up now because they’re jumping on a grifter hate train.

call the offices of every Dem who voted to fund cold-blooded executions on our streets and tell them what you think of that

Nuremberg trials for ICE is the moderate position
