Burning question on my mind: who is the current Epstein?

Who is satisfying the sick fantasies of the rich and famous RIGHT NOW?

I can't believe they are healthier now than 10 years ago. Not when we see their public behavior and it's so toxic and inhumane.

One horror after another. When will it stop?!?

What's happening is truly shameful.

I like the idea that other countries are filing charges and may release unredacted versions.

This tracks.

Watching EM is like watching a small child who thinks they're invisible, but everyone else can see what they're really doing. x1000.

Losing our democracy.

Innocent until proven guilty, yes.

So where are the trials? How could our justice system sit on so many crims?!?

New study finds WV to be only state worse off than it was 50 years ago — more tax cuts won’t help • West Virginia Watch New research affirms what the WVCBP has been warning for years: reducing tax rates doesn’t strengthen economies or raise households’ incomes.

WV: always #1 in the BEST statistics.

"Many policymakers willfully ignore these prior results and existing evidence, choosing instead to press on and promising that the NEXT tax cut will be the one to turn things around."

Risk of maternal death during pregnancy greatly underestimated, study finds A new study comparing deaths of pregnant people and of those who have an abortion show that risk of death due to pregnancy is three times higher than previously estimated.

"The findings suggest that abortion bans force pregnant people who otherwise would have sought abortion care to take on the substantially increased health risks associated with continued pregnancy, the researchers noted, including hemorrhage and high blood pressure."

Natural consequences are highly effective in changing behavior.

There are plenty of studies that show that anonymity gives people permission to be their worst selves.

"Good Guy Syndrome" props up patriarchy. If you aren't speaking up in situations that prop up patriarchy, you are perpetuating it.

Same concept with racism and illegal deportations and ableism.

Privilege comes with responsibility.

The world I'm working for.

All humans.

La Mujer Que Nunca Hizo Nada (“The Woman Who Never Did Anything”) is a 2001 sculpture by Spanish artist José Luis Fernández located in Zaragoza, Spain.

The invisible work load placed on women is difficult to describe and qualify. Too often it's dismissed as complaining without taking a good look at the balance of responsibilities in a relationship (or workplace).

This sculpture accurately represents the lived experience of most women.

Justice is accountability and consequences for a person's actions. We should all be held to the same standards.

Maybe also consider this:

If nothing else about AI makes you pause, consider this:

Stop protecting pedophiles.

Release the unredacted Epstein files.

Prosecute acts of sexual assault, abuse, and violence.

Prosecute embezzlement.

Prosecute whatever illegal behavior is documented there regardless of who it is.

Give immunity only in cases where people have to admit guilt.

Double standards really annoy me.

Here's an idea...
