I love how the showrunners get his shirt off him in every episode. They know what they're doing.
The guy can act, too. And an interestingly written character.

The FAA is definitely a culture that doesn't tolerate fucking around.

One thing I'm uncomfortable with is how many leaders on the left are also corrupted by Epstein, like the Clintons. There's a moral rot spread wide across the Epstein class. I'm glad to see Trump's feet held to the fire but it's a wide problem.

I used to be at the Santa Fe Institute in the 1990s, then the MIT Media Lab. I rubbed shoulders with a lot of very smart and creative people. And we all went off on a lot of sophomoric bullshitting. What's remarkable about Epstein is how good he was at flattering people for it.

As an avid MeFi user for 20 years, I agree! What kills me is how smugly ignorant it is. "I never use AI and know nothing about it but I am confident it is useless and evil."

Hardly "bonkers" for his era, a depressingly common set of ideas.

Miller's quote is the textbook definition of fascism. He feels safe saying it out loud because he knows Jake Tapper won't strangle him.

he's already done so many things to help out money launderers and black marketeers, why not this too?

Good Gruyere is about as much work to make as good Parmigiano or any other hard aged cheese. I bet that piece you are holding is considerably more delicious than whatever you are thinking of.
