This might be my favorite Jasper face yet

Everything these guys touch turns to stinking ashes. Augmented reality has so much potential, and they want to do this with it.

Fair enough👍🏻

Don't pay them any attention. Rescued my cat off the street 17 years ago, he's very happy living in an apartment where he doesn't meet other cats. Doing "cat things" is sleeping all day on the windowsills; sleeping all night on the end of the bed; sleeping on my lap in between + snacking on crackers

Fallout 2026 is a documentary.

Disaster capitalism spelled out in the Epstein files. They know exactly what they are doing and they intend to profit from it.

Variations on beans, bacon, eggs.

My preference: plain haricot beans, scrambled eggs, Roquefort cheese because it melts into a sauce.

Okay then, so what's your problem with llamas?

Bear in mind that none of this has anything to do with Epstein's sex crimes. Peter Mandelson is going down because of Epstein's connections with Putin.

@katie0martin.ft.com Happy birthday Katie. Appreciate the perspective you bring to the Unhedged podcast and the FT in general. Makes me happy to subscribe. And thanks for bringing the donkey into the room.

Intense engineering school workloads force students to learn how to collaborate. Teamwork trumps technical expertise which can be replaced, or even be made redundant.

Heathcliff comes into the Earnshaw fam an orphan without a past. Brontë's H could be PoC, but it could also be 'Black' Irish (Mediterranean/Celtic) or Traveller, or maybe just different. What's significant is that Hindly's projection of hateful otherness onto Heathcliff is repaid with destruction.

what the fuck man

- Epstein was Putin's wealth manager.
- Renaissance Technologies kept their doors open to Epstein.
- Renaissance Technologies were far and away the greatest donors to Trump's 2016 campaign.

Renaissance Technology bankrolled Trump's 2016 campaign.

I subscribe to 2 daily newspapers' digital editions, and a few journals. Very happy with the quality of news I get.

The FT article about Epstein's relationship with Kathy Ruemmler is revealing. The signalling in his choice of gifts.
