I hope they do expand the lore but keep that origin canon.

"Ma still tells the story of when Wario came to her saying he needed a partner for Tennis. Nine months later, I was born."

I unfortunately ordered something from the link before I realized it was a scam. It was a cool print, thought it would be good for work, but I should have known it's not legit, the signs are there. Hopefully they will cancel it and give me my money back.

Autism is many spectrums but in discourse we typically merge all the parts of what we call autism into a single spectrum. And that spectrum is the degree to which behaviors associated with austism cause functional difficulties in your life. The diagnosis of autism requires the autistic behaviors to limit your ability to function. So, everyone is on the spectrum of "the degree to which autistic behaviors limit your capacity to lead a life independently," with many being on the "basically not at all limited" end, but when we say "on the autism spectrum," we are typically referring just to the side of the spectrum where someone's life is notably limited in some ways by the effects of autistic behaviors or learning disorders.

In my opinion, we know enough from the victims of this sex ring to have pretty high confidence that Epstein was taking part in abusive sexual acts even in his own home, alone with the victims. So, if Epstein was acting as some kind of honey pot, it was because he was already doing these things and the government officials were either bribed or threatened, or under pressure from bribed and threatened officials not to go after a wealthy well-connected man like Epstein. And it is plausible they invented a honey pot cover so he could continue to get away with it. But even that I find unlikely, since if there was some kind of honey pot mechanism for this within the FBI, you would expect that some more significant portion of the powerful people we know are implicated would have had some kind of case levied against them. This sounds less like a well-intentioned plan to prosecute crime, and more like yet another glimpse over the crumbling facade of democracy. The more evidence we gather, the more we see how things really work. Rules are enforced often enough on middle-class people to give the impression that things are fair. And those people who believe in the fairness hold the fabric of society together and keep people from getting angry about the truth. That we are cattle and subject to the whims of a ruling class who take anything and anyone they want, whenever they want, and there are no mechanisms left in the system that have any ability to stop them anymore. There is no honey pot - not in any way that would have prevented the worst things from happening. If anything, it enabled further harm because of how broken the system is when it comes to what rich people are allowed to do. We can see the fence now. So, instead of spending too much energy arguing about whether we are fenced in or fenced out, we should start putting more of our energy into figuring out how to gain collective control of the gate.

Yes, that is what is means. Trump was chummy with Epstein for many years, knew about the child trafficking and took part in it. Epstein "stole" a young girl from Trump's resort and Trump got mad that Epstein took her out from under him. So, when Epstein wanted to buy a mansion, Trump used a Russian oligarch's money to outbid him. And Epstein was so pissed that he threatened to expose Trump's ties to Russia, and as a response, Trump turned Epstein in to the FBI. Alex Acosta was persuaded to give Epstein a sweetheart deal where he was not given Federal charges and got out on work release for up to 16 hours a day, 6 days a week, during his massively shortened sentence. And when Trump and Epstein later made up, Trump returned the favor to Acosta by giving him the Secretary of Labor position in his cabinet. So yeah, Trump "informing on Epstein to the FBI" definitely does not turn him into some kind of hero.

"It's very important we write down every last thing we plan to do."

"But we're not actually going to do any of them, are we?"

"Oh, no, of course not. Why would we?"

Completely agreed. Only seasons 17, 18, and 19 are canon in my mind.

None, that's a jar.

Ah, they seem to communicate by vomiting and bleeding from their skin. Interesting...

Neither, you grow it directly inside the bottle.

Oh, you are correct. Miss USA is where he did the peeping, and it's 2013's Miss Universe where a Russian oligarch paid Trump 20 million dollars to bring the pageant to Moscow. And then that oligarch's son connected the Trump campaign with a Russian lawyer in 2016 to get dirt on Hillary Clinton's campaign.

It's hard to keep track of all the debauchery.

Yep, the problem would be worse because he would be a martyr and out of the news enough that his crimes would fade away into history. And a different fascist would lead that group. At least this way, there is some chance a few more people will finally understand he is a lying thieving scumbag pedophile rapist with no intention of ever helping anyone other than himself.
