устният превод е странна работа, мъкнеш се по цял ден с хора, които си говорят с термини, жаргон и половин изречения, защото всичко се подразбира, и ти седиш като комуникационен детектив и се мъчиш да разгадаеш какво точно се има предвид с минимален брой уточняващи въпроси

Summers deserves his fate. But I suspect they’ll keep the random museum heads and so on named so that they can be the red meat for people to feed on —dummies asking the monster for money —and the finance people will be shielded. They will sacrifice the lower tiers to save the higher.

защо "Убийство преди вечерната молитва" (заглавие е), а не "преди вечерня"? Evensong не е (единична) молитва, а служба в църква, точно като вечерня #твпреводи

това трябва да е някаква версия на main character syndrome - всичко непременно се върти около и подчинява на въпроса, който теб лично те занимава най-много

I suppose ever woman’s life is a binary; the years where men you don’t know (or work with) annoy you, hit on you, and worse—all uninvited and unwanted. At a certain age, you become invisible to them. In both cases, women aren’t regarded or respected as human beings, let alone equals.

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

We've seen it in all the Twitter deepfake stuff as well. When women complain about deepfake nudes, the guys tell Grok to also make the pictures bruised and bleeding. Misogyny is the canary in the Fascism coal mine.

аз съм дърта феминистка и мъжете не могат с нищо да ме шокират вече, но това, че до ден-днешен е възможна такава полова сегрегация, че не един и двама мъже да си изкарат целия живот без нито една приятелка, още ме изумява

One of the reasons I so greatly dislike the “can men and women be friends?” nonsense (yes, full stop, shut up) is that it casts suspicion on people with opposite-sex friends instead of where it more often belongs: on people with no opposite-sex friends.

like sure, gender might *also* function as consolation prizes for the average man to feel like he can terrorize his own little fiefdom in the absence of access to capital (so he doesn’t rebel against his billionaire master). but it’s so much bigger than that. it’s very much become its own aspiration

някой сетил ли се е да кръсти някой бар БАРлога? като гледам, е задължително да се ползва някакъв каламбур с "бар" за име

това гледище съм го чувала стотици пъти от всякакви съвсем обикновени хора. това е всъщност нормалната реакция на подобни истории. възмущението е изключение. женомразието и експлоатацията на жените не признава класови граници

I keep thinking about how morally useful it must be for these terrible men to have her around. Here’s a world famous victim telling us she wasn’t a victim and what we are doing is not abuse.

This indifference or enthusiasm for sexual violence is a cultural pathology born of misogyny, not a peculiar or unique degeneracy of the rich. You know people who have responded to rape like that.

I understand the reasons why it’s more jarring and consequential to see it happen among billionaires, but the kind of shrugging disinterest or impishly approving encouragement of sexual abuse among Epstein’s circle is the same dynamic that happens in less powerful milieus.

I'm reminded of the ending of Line of Duty (the best police show of all time, period) which SPOILERS . . . . . . . . . . rather than reveal who the mastermind orchestrating police corruption was, established merely that corruption is an organic part of an organisation like the police force

There are literally emails between Epstein and gargantuan GOP donor Peter Thiel like "as discussed we shud distroy society" and yet the right wing propaganda machine is smearing Lutheran soccer moms as being on Soros's payroll.

The whole thing is projection. They want to pretend that Netflix is the big ideological player in all this and not Paramount (which legitimately is). Republicans will threaten to block the Netflix/WB deal unless Netflix moves rightward. Netflix will do that.

how is a supposed liberal bias even relevant in the context of freedom of speech?

И полицията влизала рядко при сигнал. Абсолютна абдикация на държавата. Между другото подобна картинка е и в ДПС регионите, както и в отделни села и паланки, в които местните мутри са си спретнали охранителни отряди. Хората нямат достъп до имотите си, полицията не смее да се вясне, държава няма.

Important thing Epstein files show. Certain type of men bond with other men around misogyny. That misogyny is very crucial to how they see themselves. It is their identity, a basis to form a community. Community activities’ involve rape, pedophilia, sexual harassment, etc. It‘s a group phenomenon.

Ntm the way Freud convinced everyone all incidents of reported sexual abuse/incest were just 'fantasies' of the victims. That remained accepted psychiatric doctrine well into the 70's.

I know that the left loves Freud now, but this idea that there’s no *real* sexual violation—that all force is secretly or unconsciously desired and welcomed by the weak—is a pretty clear contribution of his to right wing thought.

The report was restricted by the US Ambassador to Israel because the photos "lacked balance" - they "lack balance" because this is genocide and one-sided destruction on a massive scale. There is no "balance" to be had.

Look at the photos. The thing I heard often working on the USAID Gaza response from our partners in Gaza was the field of dead bodies - men, women, children - that fanned out around IDF checkpoints in the Netzarim corridor. Shot by IDF soldiers for no reason (unless "for fun" counts as a reason).

‘Beauvoir described Cold War America as a coercively cheerful country that refused to confront the reality of death, that expressed its horror of the body in advertisements for deodorant and laxatives.’ @adamshatz.bsky.social’s Winter Lecture, ‘Another Country’. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

A Swedish colloquialism for 'foot sweat' or 'smelly feet' is 'tåbira', which literally means 'toe beer'. The Norwegian equivalent is 'tåfis', literally meaning 'toe fart'. Check this space for more Scandinavian linguistic gems.
