An entire political movement founded on uncovering hidden messages in documents to discover the powerful secret pedophiles and meanwhile the powerful pedophiles out here sending gmails saying "Hi fellow pedophile when are we meeting to do pedophilia again"
Disgusting.
In an email on Sept. 11, 2013, Mr. Richard Branson, founder of the Virgin Group, wrote to Mr. Epstein, “It was really nice seeing you yesterday.” He added: “Any time you’re in the area would love to see you. As long as you bring your harem!”

If you read an email release implicating many of the richest and most powerful men in the world in serious sex crimes and your take away is "Adventure time ships are problematic" I'm going to take your brain out with an icecream scoop.

If I was an entomologist I would be desperately searching uncharted jungles for a new species of bug to name "[Family name] melania". Ideally one that practices traumatic insemination *or* a variety of ichneumon wasp that lays its eggs in paralysed victims which the larvae then feast on.

We gays grew up hearing politicians claim that gay people having kids was “against nature,” “social engineering,” “grooming,” “ideology,” etc. Now this rhetoric is recycled to degrade trans lives. This is why the fight against transphobia is also a fight against homophobia. Bigots will trash us all.

You guys yes the murder-curious Ohio AG candidate makes for a funny quote but it is important to note he is a crank and neither a good person nor going to win.
[sees someone talking about Elliot Forhan]
So, is now the time to bring up how he harassed fellow Democrats in the state house which literally led to him being stripped from committees and loss of access to office+starehouse, not to mention he got primaried with him only getting 12% of the vote.

It's like we're supposed to believe Epstein was this weird little sicko some folks accidentally emailed once or twice, but it looks more like he was the camshaft of a gigantic trafficking and blackmail machine involving intelligence agencies, world leaders, and literally every single oligarch.
it honestly seems like jeffrey epstein was as close as you could get to the "main character" of the west for a decade? and he was fully evil!
we're being ruled by a dying pedophile with dementia because another pedophile collected all the scientists and nazis he could into one big network and then died, leaving them rudderless

As much of Australia cranked air conditioners in this week’s oppressive heatwave, solar met 59% of electricity demand between 9am and 6pm.
More than half of this was from small-scale systems spread across about 4 million roofs. The rest was from large-scale solar farms.

Australia’s grid now relies on renewable energy as much as coal. Those who doubted it look foolish
