Jeffrey Epstein ran a child rape factory. Many, many academics participated in Epstein's world — knowingly profiting from his child rape enterprise. The British press — in fact, no press — has hounded any of them the way they prosecuted Jason Arday.

Musk owes his riches to federal bailouts and contracts: if he wants to "eliminate government fraud and waste" he should turn over his files to an IRS inspector (if he can find a survivor of the DOGE massacre) and surrender himself for a lengthy prison sentence. 40/

Not for nothing, but there's a flex that a lot of top 10%ers do where they talk about how Trumpism isn't as bad as people say because it hasn't affected **them** specifically. It's no different than showing off a nice watch or a new car.

I encountered a variation of this in writers' groups. Inevitably, the biggest he-men would refuse to write women with any depth (or any women at all in extreme cases) and their work would become ridiculously homoerotic by default

Great piece from @andizeisler.bsky.social. These women suck. But it's an inevitable result of two conflicting patriarchal pressures. First, women are told their only value is through male approval. Second, men are told it's emasculating to show affection for women. www.salon.com/2026/06/04/w...

SpaceX's rocket crashed into the ocean. The team cheered it as a "rousing success". (was better than the last 2) 🙄 Blue Origin's rocket blew up on the launch pad. And what about NASA? They launched the Artemis II mission, perfect launch, 10 days in space perfect landing. But let's fund SpaceX. 🙄
