Oh, I see. I think it still reeks of conspiracy, though. (I looked online, and suicide watch was retracted, the very day that Epstein died? Really?) It's very scary to me. I always suspected these sorts of machinations routinely happened in high society, but it's quite something to experience them in real time.
Look up Gary Webb: investigative journalist who looked into the CIA. Two gunshots to the head, suicide.
Look up Gareth Williams: code breaker for the MI6. Found decomposing in a padlocked duffle bag. Deemed “probably an accident”
That sounds very suspicious, so basically the COA “legally” kills people?

For Gareth Williams it almost certainly wasn't local intelligence services. Stuffing someone in a bag is way to crude and hard to explain away. Nobody would order that method of eliminating a troublesome person. They'd have dozens of more plausible plans they could use. One theory is that it was the Russians, which is plausible - if it was done by a foreign hitman who really didn't give a shit and only wanted to be in and out as quickly as possible, while also not carrying anything he could be arrested for having.

'Stuffed in a bag' has a certain ring to it.
Like 'tongue dangling from your throat'
or 'fingernails peeled back slowly'

It sends a very catchy message.

... it's a DF reference, not an avengers one. Probably. Something to do with a quirk in the dialogue engine after one of the major updates, iirc. Don't quite remember when it happened, but it was prior to 2019.

I finished cleaning out my clothes drawer. I apparently kept so much socks and underwear from over the years.

... it's a DF reference, not an avengers one. Probably. Something to do with a quirk in the dialogue engine after one of the major updates, iirc. Don't quite remember when it happened, but it was prior to 2019.

Basically, when two people are having a conversation, either you're in dialogue with them or overhearing two NPCs, usually when you(or one of the conversing people) mentions something usually bad, the other will often respond with "It was inevitable." or "That's terrifying." It began with the addition of extended conversation trees, which I think was 2016, but I could be wrong. I can't find the release announcement for that feature.

"It was inevitable" is also a major line from The Matrix: Revolutions.

My mother went full Karen earlier.
Also, I read "centurylink" as "Centrelink" and was mildly concerned.

I know it is trepanation, but he said trepanatation.  I was seeking clarity.
