Gosh, people, are you ever satisfied with anything?

"This sandwich is good, but I can't enjoy it because Epstein files are not released"

The objection is that releasing blurry pictures of airplanes, birds, and lens artifacts is not newsworthy, but it's getting coverage anyway instead of the things that are newsworthy.
Their excuse was they couldn’t possibly screen and redact documents fast enough to release them in large batches. And now...
Comments I’m seeing are more like:

“This sandwich is bad, also we’re ignoring their covering for sex trafficking.”

Or "the public asked the government for transparency about sex trafficking, maybe it isn't transparency for the government to excitedly reveal the contents of a sandwich are a nothingburger"
Are these your thoughts when you're having a lunch?
I don't tend to rely on whatever scraps the US govt feeds me for lunch. YMMV.
If you look at your meals and think "that's scraps from US gov", then you probably need to seek help, seriously.
Says the guy so obsessed with food he keeps trying to turn a comment thread about the US government files into a conversation about my lunch

Get your own lunch. Or some Ozempic.

They mistook EpsTein files for ET files.
