If something this bad was left in, imagine what they might have redacted...
Jesus fucking Christ.
HUGE NEWS from the new Epstein files:
Records show that Maria Farmer, who worked for Epstein, filed a "child pornography" report to the FBI in 1996.
The FBI has never before acknowledged that complaint. The case went nowhere, and mass abuse followed.

You know those Epstein victims who threatened to start talking more publicly?
Now seems like a pretty good time for that, if they're still willing...

Math gives me existential anxiety.
Because what do you mean there are infinite infinities, each one larger than the last? How am I supposed to go through life with that knowledge floating around in my head? This kind of stuff keeps me awake at night. 😂

The thing people need to realize is it's not just about Taiwan. There's a convenient excuse with Taiwan, but capturing Taiwan isn't the only goal 🤷♀️
Asked about Chinese exercises near Japan, Taiwan’s president describes them as “very inappropriate behaviour.”

"A senior Taiwan security official briefed on the matter said it is standard practice for Taiwan to provide an 'escort' to foreign vessels from like-minded countries transiting the strait, knowing that such ships are often harassed or subjected to mock attacks by China’s military."

Kaohsiung, I love you. But like a relative or friend who's fun in small doses but you'd never want to live with full-time. 😅
It's been great seeing friends, meeting new ones, and exploring a bit. I hope Linkou is chillier than Kaohsiung, though. Warm weather makes me cranky.

Me, in a Facebook group: "Does anyone have personal experience with XYZ that you'd be willing to share?"
Random person responding: "I haven't tried it myself, but I found this on Google."
Gee, thanks. I don't have access to this "Google" thing you're talking about. 🙃

Very pro-democracy administration we've got. 👌🏻
So Trump is giving up helping democratic Europe fend off Russian encroachment, is giving up helping Japan, Korea and Taiwan limit Chinese influence, and has the US army focus on hitting fishing boats in the Caribbean and marching through US Cities. Is this making America great again ?
