Screenshot of excerpt from article:
While Beecher considers some of the girls that Epstein and Maxwell trafficked as victims, others are portrayed as duplicitous money grubbers who knew what they were getting into.

Much of the reading public will find the mere idea of the book distasteful, and Epstein’s survivors will likely find parts of it offensive. This is not the kind of book that will come up at a Westside political salon, which makes filling a room for a launch party challenging.

“If the wrong people showed up something easily could have gone wrong,” says Jessica Reed Kraus who co-hosted the event along with the online publishing platform Substack. In recent years, Kraus has emerged as an influential figure in the MAHA movement with The Wall Street Journal calling her The Queen Bee of MAGA Socialites.

I don't think I've ever heard a driver say "do you know what I wish they'd stop putting in cars? An instrument panel right in front of me. They should move it far to the right, over by the passenger." AND YET.

The smooth, featureless hellscape driver-side dash of the new Mini Cooper. An abomination.

the featureless inside of a tesla, where a useful instrument panel has been replaced by an ipad glued to the center and you have to deal with sun glare and touchscreen nonsense to do anything.

Somewhere in Palo Alto, a startup founder is already opening up a fresh pitch deck www.popularmechanics.com/science/heal...

Screencap of white text on black background from the article that reads: “We want to make it clear that our goal is to advance brain research and the treatment of neurological diseases, not to replace robotic controllers and other kinds of computers with lab-grown animal brain tissues,” UC Santa Cruz’s David Haussler, a co-author of the study, said in a press release. “The latter might be considered cool, but would bring up serious ethical issues, especially if human brain organoids were used.”

OK I've only used Ellipsus for like 15 minutes so far, but this is really fun. Anyone else using it? write.ellipsus.com

A dark green square with light green text that reads:
What I'd taken at first glance to be a large stuffed animal popped up from behind an old espresso machine. It was the biggest, purplest dog I'd ever seen, standing over six feet tall with a lolling tongue nearly as long as my forearm, and bright gold eyes that smiled warmly, if vacantly, in my direction. I was so taken aback by the tongue, I almost missed the springy pair of bat-like wings peeking out from its opulently fluffy back, or the gold horns nestled in the shaggy fur between two wolfy ears. A spiked purple tail dragged on the ground behind them.

"Hi, I'm Rex. Datapad, please," they said, holding out a big, clawed paw. The claws, I noted, looked sharp enough to cut a throat with ease.

Rainy mornings in my cozy little library nook are my favorite 📚💙

A dark blue room with a pink floral rug, two forest green velvet armchairs, a wooden tall coffee table with books on it, flanked on either side by floor to ceiling black bookshelves filled with books. On the back wall behind the chairs, a circle window ringed in coral LED light shows rainy sky beyond.
