"A staffer in the Justice Department said in a secretly recorded video that the department would redact any Republican names from its investigative files on the late sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein."
“Trump was friends with Epstein for years and is reportedly mentioned repeatedly in the files. The department reportedly had hundreds of staffers poring over the documents, in part to flag instances of Trump’s name.”

The video showcases a serene and picturesque scene of a road flanked by tall coconut trees, creating a natural canopy overhead. The road is paved and marked with a white centerline, surrounded by lush greenery, including various plants and shrubs. The atmosphere is tranquil, with a light mist or haze in the background, suggesting early morning or late afternoon. A person riding a traditional cart, pulled by a bicycle, is seen moving slowly down the road, adding a sense of calm and simplicity to the scene. The cart is covered with a cloth, and the rider is dressed in a checkered shirt and dark pants. The video captures the essence of a peaceful rural setting, with the road curving gently to the right, inviting viewers to imagine a leisurely journey through this idyllic landscape. The watermark "[@]smotrinetupi" is visible in the bottom left corner of the frames, indicating the creator of the video.

The Republican platform is simple: they want to sexually abuse children, and they want you to pay for it.

Sometimes I think about that YouTube video where a linguist goes around Rome speaking Latin to Italians just to see if they can understand it.
The answer is: yes, but they find it annoying.
It also contains this amazing exchange
Italian (in Italian): Where are you from?
Linguist (in Latin): I’m a citizen of the world.
Italian: You must be an American. Only an American would be so stupid.
You know what? Forget post privacy settings to people I follow.

The video begins with a serene scene of a person standing in shallow, clear water, with their bare feet visible. The water is transparent, revealing a rocky and pebbly bottom. A dark-colored stingray is seen swimming near the person's feet, moving slowly and gracefully. The person's legs, clad in striped shorts, are partially submerged, and the water's surface reflects the surrounding environment. The stingray continues to swim around the person's feet, occasionally coming close to them. The background features a rocky shoreline and a wooden structure, possibly a pier, with reflections visible in the water. The text '[@]smotrinetupi' is visible at the bottom of the frames, indicating the source of the video.
The scene transitions to a close-up view of the stingray swimming near the rocky and pebbly bottom. The stingray moves gracefully, creating ripples in the clear water. The rocky and pebbly bottom is visible, with some green algae and small rocks scattered around. The water's surface reflects the surrounding environment, including the wooden structure, possibly a pier, with reflections visible. The stingray's movements are slow and deliberate, occasionally coming close to the camera. The text '[@]smotrinetupi' remains visible at the bottom of the frames, indicating the source of the video. The video concludes with the stingray swimming away, leaving a trail of ripples in the water.

What you truly need to vibe and thrive is simple, some good food to nourish your body, clean water to keep your spirit flowing, a little movement to keep the energy dancing, and a cozy spot to rest your head. When you’re living in community, sharing the love and looking out for each other, all that falls beautifully into place.
What you don’t need is a giant screen flashing noise at you, the newest shiny gadgets or games, or getting caught up in the endless swirl of political drama. Real wealth is found in connection, peace, and the freedom to just be.

The video begins with a view from inside a vehicle at a traffic intersection, showing a clear blue sky and a road with multiple lanes. The traffic light is red, and a black SUV is stopped in the left lane. An inset image in the upper part of the frame shows a different angle of the intersection, highlighting a red car with a red circle around it, indicating it is about to run a red light. The text "DYE MC ANIMATIONS" is visible in the top left corner, and "[@]smotrinetupi" is displayed in the center of the inset image.
As the video progresses, the red car moves forward, crossing the intersection despite the red light, and collides with a white SUV, causing it to flip over. The black SUV remains stationary in the left lane. The text "DYE MC ANIMATIONS" and "[@]smotrinetupi" remain visible throughout the video.
The aftermath of the collision is shown, with the white SUV flipped over and the red car stopped near it. The black SUV is still in the left lane, and other vehicles are seen moving around the intersection. The traffic light remains red, and the text "DYE MC ANIMATIONS" and "[@]smotrinetupi" continue to be visible.
The video concludes with the scene remaining largely unchanged, showing the aftermath of the collision with the white SUV still flipped over and the red car stopped near it. The black SUV remains stationary, and other vehicles are seen moving around the intersection. The traffic light remains red, and the text "DYE MC ANIMATIONS" and "[@]smotrinetupi" are still visible.

Ich stehe am Tresen beim Arzt für das Kindy singe "Methylphenidat" auf die Melodie von Feliz Navidad und tanze geistesabwesend dazu. Ich erzähle, dass ich mir nur so merken kann, wie das Medikament heißt, aber dass ich den Ohrwurm jetzt wieder drei Tage haben werde.
Guckt mich der 10jährige an und meint ganz trocken: "Und so hast du deine Diagnose bekommen."
Die MFA wäre fast vom Stuhl gefallen beim Versuch, nicht laut zu lachen.
Das könnte echt ein Trick sein, dass ich mir endlich den Namen merken und nicht immer im Internet nach "Inhaltsstoff Ritalin" suchen muss.
