    This is also ripe for a “so far” meme given the enormous number of omissions and redactions.

      Mmm, I get what you’re saying but that’s not really how you use that meme. “Worst day of your life so far” means that a future worse day would make this no longer the worst one. Uncovering more mentions isn’t going to change the fact that it’s already higher than all those other things. That meme would just imply that the number of bird species or languages or something might eventually outnumber the mentions.

      The answer is actually stunningly low, 2-3000, max 10,000. The orange pedophile is mentioned 38,000 times over 3.5 million pages.

    Are there really less than 38,000 visible stars?

    I’ve been out in the open ocean hundreds of miles from land, lights out, looking at the whole of the milky way on a clear night. Just from my one hemisphere view it seemed like 10’s of thousands…

    The “files” from the “Trump/Epstein” files are mostly MP4 files yet they throw written documents out there as if it is 1950. Don’t fool yourself for a second, they videotaped most of that crap that was going on.

        Epstein himself said he videotaped everything. Now why would a narcissist take orders from the leader of another country? What kind of absolute leverage would cause that? Tapes. Of unspeakable horrors.

      Generally, fewer is used when a number of things can be counted (“fewer problems”) and less is used when an amount is measured (“less trouble” or “less time”). However, this is not a strict rule and there are accepted instances of less being used with countable amounts such as “250 words or less,” “3 items or less,” and especially with money (“less than $20”) and distance (“less than 3 miles”). Note that in all these cases, the things considered are often thought of as amounts rather than numbers.

      https://www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/fewer-vs-less

      “38,000 mentions”, so “less” is appropriate.

          An entire Wikipedia page exists on this due to the evolution of use. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fewer_versus_less

          Even Tesco avoided using “fewer” to keep from getting stuck in this debate.

          The rule may have been codified in the 1700s, but plenty of linguistic shifts have occurred since then.

    In the words of a “totally-not-Republican” person I know (who identifies as “far-right”):

    “I’m not saying I would have the man over for dinner.”

    Obviously I was taken aback and have yet to come up with a response that I believe they would find convincing in demonstrating Trump should not be in the White House, even years later.

      From the article linked by MML:

      You might be in for a surprise when you read it, though. To answer the question, “How many stars in the sky?” The total comes to 9,096 stars visible across the entire sky. Both hemispheres. Since we can only see half the celestial sphere at any moment, we necessarily divide that number by two to arrive at 4,548 stars (give or take depending on the season). And that’s from the darkest sky you can imagine. I don’t know about you, but that number seems paltry to one’s impression of an inky night in the backcountry.

      At the poles, where the north and south polestars are pinned to the zenith and no stars rise or set, the same ~4,500 stars are visible every single clear night of the year. At northern mid-latitudes, the pole star is halfway up in the northern sky, allowing us to peer deeper into the southern realms of the celestial sphere. During the course of a year from latitude 45° north, we see roughly half again as many stars as we do at a particular time on a given evening. That tallies up to approximately 6,800 stars. Still pretty lean, but apparently enough to convey the impression of an intensely starry sky.
