- I’ve been having some very dark thoughts about the latest Epstein revelations, and they’ve led me to this: we now have proof that patriarchy and men’s sexual appetites are shaped by pedophiles and rapists. Men need to look inward and think hard about why they find certain things sexually appealing

I absolutely loved my job my brilliant coworkers & the thrill of reporting @ the center of forces upending the world: AI & Silicon Valley’s political power

- This site is one of the most beautiful things on the internet. Every time you load it, it loads a new letter written by someone who cares and who wants you to stick around. Please share, and please write a letter if you feel called to do so. www.reasonstostay.co.uk?utm_source=i...
- The pandemic showed us very clearly that women run the world and that if we stopped caregiving and household management, the world would collapse. Which is why they want to force us into those roles. I am so damn tired of watching mothers run themselves ragged for men who depend on their labor
- Roughly half a million women in the US exited the workforce in 2025, and 42% of those who voluntarily left cited their caregiving responsibilities as the main reason, according to a recent survey from Catalyst. www.hr-brew.com/stories/2026...

- Reposted by Meg PillowSadly, I have a personal ask: ICE kidnapped a staffer who works at my grandson’s daycare this weekend along with two other family members. Can you help the extended families with legal costs & famity support? It would mean a lot to me. I’m just sick about this. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

- Reposted by Meg Pillow“There is no conceivable degree of institutional incompetence sufficient to explain the scale, consistency, and persistence of the failures that occurred —particularly where the sole task ordered by the Court and repeatedly emphasized by DOJ was simple: redact known victim names before publication,”
- So, there are a class of pedophiles who are horrified by their attractions and take tremendous measures to keep themselves away from children. That is not these people. And if you choose to associate with unrepentant pedophiles, your judgment and character should be questioned
- Reposted by Meg PillowI think there are a lot of academics who were knowingly attended dinners and lunches where they knew Epstein would be in the 2010s that are telling themselves that actually it's cool because it's not like they're pedophiles but by the 2010s he was an unrepentant convicted pedophile, folks
- Y’all there is too little genuine good-hearted fun in this world, but our friends over at Merriam-Webster are resharing their own Groundhog Day definition repeatedly and sharing when ppl quote & reshare the definition too, and it genuinely made me smile. Enjoy 💗

- Reposted by Meg PillowAs the latest Epstein files circulate, I want you to consider one thing: If these men, doing such vile things, about which they communicated with hundreds of people for *decades*, could escape public scrutiny for this long - imagine how many men have gotten away with garden variety sexual assault.
- Many ppl are willing to give folks who have done terrible things a second chance if they are held accountable and repair damage they caused. But pedophiles and perpetuators of sexual violence are notoriously difficult to rehabilitate. Acting like all offenders are the same is deeply fucked

- Something I’m realizing about the ppl in power is that they think regular ppl are doing heinous shit because they do heinous shit constantly and are the most evil ppl alive. Clarifies a lot
- Reposted by Meg PillowIt's not lost on me that the MeToo movement fizzled because of allegations against Joe Biden The very Joe Biden who became president and sat on these Epstein Files his entire term

- Reposted by Meg PillowWhy the fuck do we have so many cops & so many FBI agents & so many sprawling law enforcement intelligence fusion networks if all they ever do is say "the victim didn't email us back so we never followed up on their accusations against Jeffery Epstein" or "she sounds crazy, allegations disregarded"

- Yeah I think it’s criminal actually. Goes to show you that the ppl in power in every party don’t give a fuck about women, SA survivors, or anyone who doesn’t have power. I am sickened to my core by this country

- Reposted by Meg PillowMy neighbor, a single mother of two in South Minneapolis, was abducted today and everything about it is heartbreaking. There is an immediate (and steep) financial need for lawyer costs. I know there are so, so many of these right now, but please consider this dear family: gofund.me/9516b14f7
- Reposted by Meg PillowThere's been a lot of discussion about the echoes of the civil rights movement in the protests today, with people obviously drawing comparisons between the strategies, tactics and coalitions that were vital then and are still vital now. But this post has me thinking about a different echo ...
- Reposted by Meg PillowBut I think people who hold this double standard should feel ashamed 🥲 I also think shame is self-indulgent if it isn’t part of your process of becoming someone better
- I don’t share details about my kids online anymore, but my youngest just got great news about school next year, and I’m so proud of him and all his hard work. Feels good to celebrate a joyful moment
- I know I just did a whole thread on ppl’s capacity to change and not wishing suffering on anyone, but I actually don’t think we have to forgive or accept a single apology. Let them go and do the lifelong repair work. Keep your distance. If they’re real, it will bear out over time

- I also want to point out that when you relish in the suffering of MAGA, you’re relishing in the suffering of their children. Kids don’t choose who they are born to. That makes you no better than the conservatives who relish in the suffering of immigrants and refugees and their kids
