I wonder how much effort and how many people had to be involved to get him out of bed this morning.

A Guide to the Epstein Files, Part I Here we go.

"You are not alone in looking at this mountain of rancid shit and wondering where to start and what you should know as you go along. So, I’m starting this guide, which is intended to be just as helpful to myself in understanding all of it."

The time period starting around 2015 and through now feels like it has been the "first Monday in January" for the century.

Like the old joke about lawyers - it’s a good start.

You could actually structure your moral code around the idea that law enforcement doesn't exist to execute people. You don't have to create perfect victim narratives, you can just refuse to accept that the state gets to kill people.

If I recall correctly the Titanic didn’t need to turn around, it just needed to scooch a few yards to the left (much like a couple of recent presidential elections).

I’m tired of being talked down to by people like this. They are doing the Elon Musk Mars In 2 Years bit but have tied the entire U.S. economy to a bespoke compliment generator. It’s time to start talking about these AI mutants like delusional babies.

I would dearly love to watch her prepare that meal. And then eat it.

In Casablanca (1942) the opening scene depicts nazis demanding to see papers then shooting a man who runs away. However, it’s slightly more complicated because the man wasn’t cooperating and the officer was practicing self defense.

I got hit by a car last week and only apologized once; I was pretty proud of myself.

Whoever came up with these tariffs in the first place should be fired.

I want to say I once heard something about wall-climbing cattle but I don’t think it was in this context.

Happy November 1st! Welcome to second October. Things are dying. Night comes sooner, hungrier than in the summer. The cold is here. Things haunt the woods. Snow can trap you, Donner Party your plans. Colds and flus awake, go hunting. Yeah, it’s still spooky season. It’s always spooky season.

Trump is NOT a doctor and no one should be taking medical advice from a man who once told people to inject bleach.

Talk to your doctor and listen to the experts—not conspiracy theorist quacks like Trump and RFK Jr.
