I’m annoyed every day why stop now
Someday I'll stop being annoyed by the words 'nonfiction novel' but today is not that day.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

The throughline from the Epstein story to Trump's gradual decline as a political figure is one of class. It has a hook in the public's imagination not only because it's salacious but because it's about wealthy men abusing teenage runaways and that rhymes with people's own resentment towards the 1%

I am begging America to not be stupid enough to embrace a racist and an antisemite because Donald Trump thinks she's a meanie. Just grab some popcorn and watch the Nazis fight.
Trump: “I am withdrawing my support and Endorsement of ‘Congresswoman’ Marjorie Taylor Greene…”

The problem is that the people who have the power to impose consequences are themselves the people who need to be punished
Something the US needs to accept too is that without a large-scale correction imposing consequences on a large number of people, the crisis of governance here will continue indefinitely

Forced sterilization never died!
“Many of the women say that they were pressured to have unwanted or unnecessary gynecological procedures while in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement”

You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique
Something absolutely perfect about Larry Summers riffing about the scourge of woke cancel culture being unfair to predatory men in a friendly email to his pal JEFFREY EPSTEIN.

Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he started in creeping on 14-year-old Sally Hemings. And Sally, who was enslaved, shared a father with Martha Wayles Jefferson—Tom's wife.

He's been dead literally centuries and the US refuses to reckon squarely with what this meant for definitions of American greatness

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

the thing is that so many republican men simply do not give a shit about sex abuse or pedophilia

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Really difficult to overstate the fury one should feel that the GOP and institutions like the New York Times went all in on transphobia as some mortal threat to women and girls while covering up something like this.
When you read these Epstein emails, you start to understand why so many prominent conservatives are obsessed with checking the genitals of children. It's a big thing for them!

Honestly Dems have no fucking excuse for tolerating transphobia, like none at all, “you creepy fuck, why are you obsessed with the genitalia of minors” is RIGHT FUCKING THERE

If the Democrats were a real party, they would be full court pressing this, ousting everyone associated with Epstein and bringing the whole Republican party crashing down. But they're gonna do the same old Democrat shit.

We need a progressive movement. I hope one is starting to build.

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

The president of the united states is a pedophile rapist who was best buddies with Jeffrey Epstein and spent hours with an underage victim at Epstein's home. Now he's currently huddled in the situation room directing a cover up about it like it's a seal team 6 operation. Do I have that right?

Really wild how all these Harvard scientists and mathematics guys constantly talked about how Jeffrey Epstein was this brilliant, "misunderstood" man and then you read his emails and he's clearly a barely literate lecher, extremely easy to understand

As Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva is finally sworn in — after a seven-week delay — remember:

- she’s poised to sign the Epstein files discharge petition

- the White House appears quite desperate to derail that discharge petition www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

As the Arizona Democrat becomes the newest member of Congress, the White House still hopes to kill the discharge petition she’s poised to sign.
