That’s not him looking serious, that’s him filling up his Depends.

I love how in the interview the woman asking questions looks like she’s preparing for Dorothy to spray spit all over.

Dorothy should read some Streetsblog. You don’t need a Citibike to get killed by a car in New York New York Big City of Dreams.

Seven lonely days
And a dozen towns ago
I reached out one night
And you were gone
Don’t know why you’d run,
What you’re running to or from
All I know is I want to bring you home

I forget, was this what we used the profits from the illegal Iranian arms sales for or was it tax dollars?

New York attorney Stephen L. Kass cited proof that the government carried out “virtually indiscriminate murder of men, women and children of any farm regarded by the army as possibly supportive of guerrilla insurgents.”

Rural women suspected of guerrilla sympathies were raped before execution, Kass said. Children were “thrown into burning homes. They are thrown in the air and speared with bayonets. We heard many, many stories of children being picked up by the ankles and swung against poles so their heads are destroyed.” [AP, March 17, 1983]

I’m trying to calibrate my outrage meter.

Somebody misunderstood how the whole new media outreach thing was supposed to work.

If he had stuck to diapers or wetsuits, he’d still be a free man today.

What is especially funny about this is that Law Enforcement basically made the Boston area into a giant posse whose sole task was to stay inside.

That was the most fcked up of all the fcked up movies.

Plus, Jeremy Irons is dagnasty.

When you go back and RTFM, you’ll see that yes Quinn was prepped for her Grand Jury testimony, and she punked Heymann. As her article states, the trouble began long before that when she went with her two lawyers to a proffer meeting with the ADA. She believed she would be dealing with a human, only realizing too late that she was negotiating with the Nazgûl.

Jacob Applebaum talks about the extraordinary surveillance he has received from being what he calls a “Wikileaks related individual” during his keynote talk at the 29th Chaos Communication Congress this past December.

Take the time and watch it.

I recommend taking an hour and listening to Jacob Applebaum’s keynote address to the 29th Chaos Communication Congress this past December. Despite being the object of significant lawless surveillance at the hands of the US gov (primarily as a result of his association with Wikileaks, Assange, and Manning. And Tor.), he is hopeful that we can still defeat the constant security state.

“What would I do? I’d shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders,” Michael Dell said before a crowd of several thousand IT executives.

An excellent book about the history of Uranium mining in the Navajo lands is Yellow Dirt by Judy Pasternak.

As Krugman has put it, Boehner and Repulicans just lit the fuse on the Austerity Bomb!

This a sad loss for America. Daniel Inouye was a true war hero, and as far as I know, the only American Senator to ever be declared a Badass of the Week:

Daniel Inouye received the Distinguished Service Cross, which was later upgraded to the Medal of Honor. He lost the arm and had it replaced with a badass hook, and after 20 months of surgery and recovery in various military hospitals, he went home, got a law degree, and worked as a prosecuting attorney. In 1962 he was almost unanimously elected to the Senate (thus making him the first Japanese-American in Congress) — he’s won the post nine times since then, making him the longest-serving current member of the Senate and the second-longest serving Senator in the history of the United States.[in 2011]

Click over and read how he got it.

A Standard Bearer for the Greatest Generation.

And yet you keep coming back.

Glenn don’t care cuz he’s going to be uploaded into an immortal robot.

Meanwhile, the rest of us have to live with his soulless quest.

CEO of the conservative PJ Media made a play but can’t decide if it’s conservative?

If they really wanted to be sure to get the play covered, they could have done worse than “Penthouse Bolsheviks”:

So even though it was late

Because Andy was often up waaay past closing time for some reason.

He loved this country too much, I guess.
