Honestly I thought this was going to be a guide to increasing the fluffiness of a hamster. Clickbait indeed!!!

Genuinely will be thinking about this hamster essay. Something about the conscientious listing of facts up to and INCLUDING the end just hits. Thinking about shame around "failure to love", which becomes so visible in its ABSENCE here. The child's mind..

If we all had the pragmatism and emotional regulation of your 8 year old self, therapy would be a thing of the past!

I got halfway into this thing before I realized that the hamster is named Fluffy and you're not giving out tips about how to make your hamster fluffier.

I didn't even know the CIA even published such a thing, do they not want to write cool fun facts about all those files?

It was just stats about each country - demographics, size, holidays, etc. I use it all the time for work. Can’t help but think it was taken down for nefarious reasons. What, I don’t know. But I’m angsty now.

Very strange! And nothing I can find online anywhere saying it was going to go away. Nefarious, indeed!

Strange that it happened on the same day the longest-serving member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence sent this letter to the CIA Director: https://www.wyden.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/wyden_letter_to_d-ciapdf.pdf
