Went for a bit of a walk. It's warm out. Muggy. I don't much like mugginess, so I probably made a mistake living the whole of my life on an island in the north Atlantic.

You can have Hibiskus-"tea" for ages, we always had it on our sommer camps like rosehip-"tea", so it should be okay.

Ironmouse, a v-tuber just recently released an opera song and it is incredible. But what has been giving me joy these last couple of days, is that Marco Meatball did a reaction to the song, explaining a breakdown of the techniques and offering a critique, and then Ironmouse reacted to that, and Marco has just bounced back with another.

And normally, I dislike reaction videos, but because this back and forth is both about the deep technical aspects of the song and singing, and also, two people just really appreciating each other's talent, it's the most wholesome thing. We need more of this sort of stuff

New in PN: The conspiracy to free the world's most notorious sex trafficker

"Trump has made it clear that the quid for his quo is dirt on prominent Democrats. And so if Maxwell wants out, she better start singing about *blue* birds only." publicnotice.co/p/ghislaine-ma…

in reply to Aaron Rupar

We need to quit focusing on what a convicted trafficker, who proved not credible in court, might or might not say.

Instead, we should focus on what's on Epstein's computer and other files that the FBI is sitting on.

in reply to Aaron Rupar

How do sex traffickers like Trump's buddy Epstein & his girlfriend/co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell usually make their victims fall into their clutches?
They're lying to them, making attractive but false promises never to be kept.

So Maxwell is not an anyhow credible person.

We host Nazis because if we didn’t, things would be even worse — That’s #substack’s policy since quite some time. I’ll leave it up to you to decide if you want to support that take by visiting their site or using it to host your content.

I don't know how to deal with Nazis. On one hand I think they should have free speech on their own platforms that I don't use. But excluding them from platforms I do use feeds into their narrative that they're speaking the uncomfortable truths that shadowy elites who control the international banking system don't want you to know. 🤮
