I’ve seen parts of this interview between Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson but just watched it in full. If they aren’t smitten with each other or maybe just platonic soulmates, they are more amazing actors than we thought. youtu.be/qlLVQYzgQQg?...

Peter Thiel Just Accidentally Made a Chilling Admission. Five Decades Ago, One Man Saw It Coming. He was laughed out of academia for this take about the internet. Turns out he was right.

I called everyone in Jeffrey Epstein's little black book. What I learned about rich people, conspiracy, Ghislaine, stand-up comedy, and evil from 2,000 phone calls.

Epstein’s "little black book" totals 97 pages, containing 1,571 names and roughly 5,000 phone numbers. At least 38 names are mysteriously circled, including Donald Trump's.

“I got my hands on a copy,” writes Leland Nally. “I made close to 2,000 phone calls.”

This is absolutely true. If you do not have a Miami Herald account or use Apple News, the gist is it’s unaffordable. Same goes for many other places, including Chicago! www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...

Watching the 2023 Indonesian #horror movie The Haunted Hotel (Panggonan Wingit). I am drawn to Asian horror that has #folklore as its central theme. I’m only 30 mins in so we’ll see. When they tell you to not go into the room on the 3rd floor, you might want to listen.
