the special thing about Jeffrey Epstein and his island is that he made clients
of the rich and famous.
there are dens all across the country which do the same thing. Epstein and his
island is a dog-whistle, a symbol, a signifier of our intent - we will not
tolerate this behavior anymore.
we never did. But now we are looking for it. He was not special - his island
was not special.
Special meaning "different or unique"
Human trafficking is slavery, and as such I am elementally aligned against it.
I just... have bigger problems, because I am convinced that capitalism, the
system of exchanging goods and services for currency, is a form of slavery.

I once wrote that fetishes are wrong because they distract you from making
families or whatever. That's... okay? it's okay to be wrong? it's okay to be a
little evil.
it's like rock climbing, bouldering, or adventuring. If you disturb the
environment, you lose points. Disturbing the environment is evil, but, it's
okay to do so sometimes.
similarly, fetishes aren't wrong because they disturb the environment. They're
wrong because they're a deviation from the right and the norm and the
biological and the natural and *that's okay, because humans are anything
but natural*. Relish in your stupidity, celebrate your diversity, and
contemplate the lessons of antiquity. This is the gift that humans possess, the
ability to be different.

You should not, generally, spend time in places covered in bird poop or poison
oak. You should also avoid abandoned wooden structures or old fallen logs,
because spiders. Also, don't spend too much time on islands made of sand. They
wash away as you step on them, as erosion takes its toll. Plus permanence is
impossible in your structures. Not ideal in any sense - build on rock.

microphones but they mean something to hurt you because they know what stings
or they want to entrap you.

when they believe one thing and are personally harmed whenever you speak to the
contrary, as faith is sustenance in the way that the pumping of blood through
your veings sustains.
