The Horror
Feb. 23rd, 2026 07:24 am I dreamed our garden was full of junk- and we were clearing it away and burning it so the children from the school next door could come in and work and play.
Now there's symbolism you don't have to work too hard to understand.
I gather the police are treating Prince Andrew's former home- Royal Lodge- as a crime scene, taking up floorboards and thrusting remote control cameras into areas that are hard of access.
And attention is shifting from Little St James to the Zorro ranch. There are reports of bodies being buried there.
Early trawls through the files concentrated on mentions of the current president. He had had his people redact and redact again but even so he was all over them- and the evidence was damning. Now attention is focused on other names and other oddities. What exactly is this obsession the Epstein class had with food- and cheap food at that? Do "pizza", "grape soda" and "jerky" mean what we are coming to think they mean?
How do you talk about any of this? Words like "horror" are shopworn. I find myself veering aside into euphemism and even humour. Perhaps the best mode is the straightforward reporting of fact.
