The more time we spend on Epstein before getting it buttoned up, the less time we have to investigate all the other Epsteins.

This is like shuttering a single vendor on the boardwalk in New Jersey, or closing exactly one fast food restaurant in Los Angeles.

Try to gain some perspective on a global industry that was thriving long before, and certainly after, just one trafficker was caught.

This is bigger than just one spoiled piece of shit. He had a lot of friends among spoiled pieces of shit.

White people habitually do half a job and submit an invoice. Now that you know, make sure justice is served without shortcuts.

When teams break camp after MLB Spring Training, the 40-man rosters on all 30 clubs will represent a maximum of 1,200 players.

Over 1,000 children were sex trafficked by Epstein for waiting crowds. Everyone has a different definition of a national pastime.

Perspective goes a long way when trying to process evil. Even if it makes you hold back vomit.

Cultural allowances for people who grew up with an allowance.

While everyone else did chores for their small "allowance" money.

The shapes of things.

Gonna be pretty hard to sell "TOLERANCE" bumper stickers after the Epstein files.

Tolerance is why there was an island of trafficked children.

These proclivities were hardly secret, and have been met with a lot of tolerance.

Try to be pickier about white people.

If you're in SE Portland, and get your flowers from a supermarket instead of Kern Park, you're missing out.

There's a person who bought an incredibly rare vintage guitar at Guitar Center for $649 a few weeks ago, stripped the original Kluson tuners off, and installed new crummy ones. He is now asking just shy of $1,300 for the guitar, and another $400 for the original tuners on Reverb. Because of course.

Europe: "Americans aren't doing anything about the Epstein files! Look at our performative reaction to over 600 years of trafficking in the Caribbean!"

US: "Americans is doing a lot of heavy lifting. Where, prithee, did the culture come from that propelled an Epstein in his professional interests?"

Europe: "Look! We're reacting!"

US: "While we deal with the violence of your people on the daily. Thought about repatriation? As a treat. You all have national airlines."

Europe: "Not like that."

Collecting rapists, molesters, and murderers is one thing.

Not being able to get a dime from empty people when we return 'em?

That's called littering.

Our immigration problem arrives here in a jet.

Remembering a descendant of Chief Sealth talking about how children grew up safe in a longhouse because there were so many eyes inside the space.

It stuck with me.

Such a stark contrast with cultures who don't value their children, and act surprised when bad things happen in relative silence.

Pun intended.

@steter This. We had the same issue. Learned to love life without a coffee maker too.

The left has a chance to make things happen when the market is flooded with dark money from a foreign lobby.

That's new.

What if we simply assumed an entire class of people were deviants because we have thousands of years of documented behavior?

Perhaps the US already knows these people all too well.

Europe is still trying to maintain a surprised face.

Glad to see them going after powerful horrible people, but Europeans have been involved in human trafficking throughout the Caribbean for over 600 years.

They're pretty motivated to spin this cultural hellscape of their own making into something positive.

Chuck Schumer.

The verb is right there.

Use it.

The Mariners pitching Woo should have been a hint.

Yes, that is still the best pun in baseball.

Remember when Sally Struthers advocated for hungry children?

Her estimated wealth looks to be about $6 million dollars.

Taylor Swift is a billionaire.

She isn't on basic cable with a plea for hungry kids.

Because she could feed them now.

Watching the standards for white women plummet has certainly been a thing.

Swift is awful quiet about Epstein too.

Performative feminism has a certain latency and delay on the uptake.

Especially when their mouths are choked by money.

To be fair, Oprah is quiet too.

They must be hoping the class war blows over.
