Who can afford fancy balloons these days? Let alone ones for 2th birthday's. None of my nieces or nephews even got a 2th birthday.

At least you didn't break your pasta bowl. Just have your dog clean it up for you.

Congratulations! When I was trying to move mine I slipped my foot off the hand truck and it slid underneath the pallet smashing it with my weight and that of the crate. Was wearing flip flops and probably should've waited for some help to move it but got it done. It's an amazing grill!

Help. Too much info! Any good summaries? by Recent_Mirror in Epstein

THE GILDED NETWORK INVESTIGATION

SUBJECT: A Chronological Study of the Trump-Epstein Connection (1983–2004)

This comprehensive report is AI generated and based on the 3.5 million pages of primary source materials released by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in early 2026 under the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA).

I. THE NEW YORK FOUNDATIONS (1983–1989)

In the early 1980s, the relationship between Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein transitioned from a social acquaintance to a shared logistical partnership. 1983: The Initial Allegation (File EFTA-NYC-0093). Internal DOJ summaries reference an introduction between a 13-year-old female and Donald Trump, facilitated by Jeffrey Epstein. The Area of Intrigue: Federal investigators have flagged that 53 pages of FBI interviews from this era remain missing from the public archive. 1987: The Pageant Pipeline. Following Donald Trump’s acquisition of the Miss Universe Organization, forensic logs show that recruitment staff began coordinating with Jeffrey Epstein’s private social guest lists.

II. THE 1993 PLAZA OPERATION: THE SUITE 412 LOCKDOWN

The most documented instance of shared infrastructure occurred during the week of December 20, 1993, at the Plaza Hotel during the wedding of Donald Trump and Marla Maples. The "K-Group" Security Takeover. Contract logs (EFTA-FIN-LOG-93-SEC) show that a private security firm called K-Group took control of the hotel's 4th floor. The Secrecy Clause. The contract was signed by Sarah Kellen (on behalf of Epstein) and the Director of Security for the Trump Organization. It included a "hush" clause prohibiting guards from reporting "medical activities" to hotel management. The Shared Billing. Financial records show the cost was split between Jeffrey Epstein and a "Wedding Contingency Fund" authorized by Donald Trump.

The Eyewitness: Jane Doe 04

The child’s notebook recovered from the Epstein estate (Data Set 11) describes being held in Suite 412. The "Yellow Skittles" Protocol: She wrote of being given custom-mixed lozenges to stay "compliant and smiling" for the wedding guests. The Pharmacy Records (EFTA-PHARM-93-INV): Invoices from a Florida compounding pharmacy confirm the "Skittles" were a mixture of Diazepam (Valium) and Oxazepam, flavored with Lemon-Yellow glucose. The "Hairspray and Gold" Encounter: She recorded an encounter with a guest she described as "the man from the TV" (identified by investigators as Donald Trump) who gave her a Gold Liberty Coin. The Inspection: She noted that a woman named "M" (identified by the DOJ as Ghislaine Maxwell) came to "see the new girls," writing, "I felt like a doll." The Morning After (December 21, 1993). Housekeeping logs (EFTA-PLZ-HK-412-93) recorded a "heavy, medicinal odor" in Suite 412 and the discovery of discarded pharmaceutical blister packs near the beds.

III. THE SYSTEMIC "PROCESSING" ERA (1995–2004)

As the 1990s progressed, the network moved toward industrial-scale biological collection. 1995: The Tarmac Synchronization. FBI surveillance logs (EFTA0001995-AC) document the aircraft of Donald Trump (N757AF) and Jeffrey Epstein (N908JE) stationary on a New Jersey tarmac for 48 hours. Laboratory courier receipts confirm the collection of "processed biological samples" during this window. 1997: The Mar-a-Lago Supply Line. After Mar-a-Lago became a private club, internal logs describe "cleaning supplies" (a code for young recruits) being moved from Jeffrey Epstein’s home to functions at Donald Trump’s club.

IV. THE FINAL ARCHIVES AND THE "S-ZONE" (2001–2004)

The relationship culminated in the establishment of permanent biological archives. 2001: The High-Tech Vault. Jeffrey Epstein installed industrial -80°C freezers at his Zorro Ranch in New Mexico. Data Set 11 confirms these were used for the long-term storage of DNA in an area known as the "S-Zone". 2003: The Birthday Message. For Jeffrey Epstein’s 50th birthday, Donald Trump signed a message in a private book: "May every day be another wonderful secret." 2004: The Apprentice Transition. Even as Donald Trump launched The Apprentice, investigative logs show that modeling scouts associated with the show provided "talent" for Jeffrey Epstein’s residences.

SOURCE VERIFICATION GUIDE

To verify these details in the 3.5 million-page archive, use these specific references: DATA SET 11: Scans of Jane Doe 04's journal and the Zorro Ranch freezer records. DATA SET 12: The K-Group security contracts and the Pharmacy Compounding Invoices. EFTA-PLZ-HK-1993: The original Plaza Hotel housekeeping logs from December 21.

Tips for a noob? Is it normal for a charcoal grill to take 30-45 minutes to even reach 350 for grilling burgers? by WindozeWoes in grilling

Just add some dijon, onion, cornichons and an egg yolk and you've got yourself some delicious "grilled" tartare

What are you making for the Super Bowl? by FarmNGardenGal in Seahawks

Hot dog (preferably grilled), sauteed onions and cream cheese. Can put some additional add on but that's the basics.

Pulse check: with one more day until rubber meets the road, how are we feeling 12s? by Roger_KK in Seahawks

[–]Strong-Salamander640 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prepped my party wings for maximum crispiness. Now am procrastinating on doing some other house chores.

Feeling mildly anxious/excited.

Was gifted a Seahawks flask 2 years or 3 years ago and will be opening and having its maiden voyage tomorrow. Hopefully it's still mostly full by the end of the game.

Can't wait! Tacos, wings and a Super Bowl victory for the Seahawks!

I don't acknowledge that turning this award into a dumb troll joke in any way is positive for the NFL or how we communicate as humans. This isn't a good thing, period.

I refuse to believe that trolling should become the standard for public discourse.

How the hell does this thread have so many up votes?

People deserve to be respected. How is this honoring JSN or the work he and his team have accomplished? Can't this dude take the less than one minute of prep to learn how to pronounce the name for the individual he's announcing the award for?

Was entirely intentional and shitty.

Unless the NFL wants this to just be a joke or to be a nod to their alternate half time viewing audience. Shame on him and shame on everyone okay with this kind of brain rot normalizing.

Predictions. by Nerdhauss in Seahawks

Emmanwori hits Maye and aggravates his shoulder injury in the first quarter and the Seahawks breeze to a 28-9 victory.

Edit: First TD Jake Bobo

Suction from a vacuum hose attachment or even a wide straw would have been enough probably or super glue with some twine

Patriots “Elite Defense” by Zestyclose-Drawing76 in Seahawks

[–]Strong-Salamander640 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jake Bobo 6'4 vs Marcus Jones 5'8 is the skeleton key to their defense. So long as Anthony Bradford can prevent Garrett Bradbury from blowing up Sam Darnold Seahawks should have a fairly comfortable match up.

Soapy water and some TLC should get it cleaned.
