Meanwhile, in #Egypt:

New high-speed trains unveiled. Will run on 3 lines, with top speeds of 250 km/h (155 mph).

Morocco already has a high-speed network; Nigeria is building one.

So who’s gonna investigate the former Florida AG who gave Epstein a free pass?

Given how many times Trump is mentioned in the 20,000 documents that were just released. Are they actually the Epstein files or the Trump files?

Just blocked a gaggle of weird dudes jumping into my mentions defending Megyn here. Let me say this with my whole chest: I don’t care about your legalistic definitions or hypothetical Romeo and Juliet scenarios. These were children who were sex trafficked against their will who did not and could not consent to be raped by powerful men more than double their age. Stick to the issue.

King of UK, to his own brother: "That does it, you're not a prince any more. Out you go."

US, now that Trump is clearly implicated: "Technically it's not really pedophilia if the girl is 14."

Dear news sites,

When I open one of your stories, I don't want to see an unrelated autoplay video, especially one labelled "made right now with AI!"

When I stop it, and scroll down, I don't want to see it pop up again.

I also don't want pop ups for other stories getting in the way while I'm trying to read this story.

And when I finally manage to make it to the story I wish to read, at the end of it you're asking for donations?

@arstechnica

he was ostracized for racists, sexist comments.

So, he’d have been right at home with your publisher then?

For those unaware (I was until today), Ars Technica is owned by Condé Nast. This is the company that just fired all of the black and trans reporters at Teen Vogue (one of their other publications) and then also fired everyone who complained to to HR about this.

Please don’t drive traffic to their site.

Obamacare is now 15 years old. That must be why Republicans are fucking it.

Thanksgiving's association with the Pilgrims only solidified around 1900, coinciding with a wave of immigration that alarmed Protestant leaders. The story they promoted emphasized Plymouth's settlers as America's true founders, subtly excluding Catholics, Jews and Indigenous peoples. https://theconversation.com/how-the-plymouth-pilgrims-took-over-thanksgiving-and-who-history-left-behind-267944
