Petition: Drop Charges and extradition for Julian Assange and Wikileaks

Huh, just tried to sign it, email confirmation never arrived. Tried again with a different email, same. Also, the petition was started May 4 and only has 1220 signatures... smells fishy. At least I'm on a list now, gonna kick back and wait for my drone-strike.

Good breakdown, thank you. I was 100% onboard the global warming hysteria train since middle school (mid 90's) until it magically became the only socially acceptable opinion sometime in the last decade or so. I recently made the faux pas of hinting at my growing skepticism to my arm-chair liberal friends/family and might as well have clubbed a baby seal with a plutonium swastika... yet I'm the only one of the bunch who commutes to work on a bicycle.

They absolutely make traffic less safe. My city has a ridiculous and growing number of red light and photo-radar cameras. Now, the instant a light turns yellow people slam on their brakes. Good times for tow companies and body shops though, and the private (out of state) companies who sell and operate the cameras and radar vans.

I just returned from a week drinking ayahuasca with a bunch of beautiful hippies in the Ecuadorian Andes. At one point in the afterglow of a very powerful ceremony, a young apprentice Shaman played a cover of this on an old Spanish guitar, and I haven't been able to get it out of my head since... and I don't want to. Happy Easter everybody.

The Orville is absolutely the spiritual successor of Star Trek, and it’s fantastic.

I was sure it was gonna be a dude in a suit, or a 3 legged deer but nope, definitely a kangaroo

Someone should record a song solely via HDD, and maybe autotune

Just discovered this sub and came here to post this, beat me to it Jason, nice! Also, “beat me to it” could be a Dewey Cox song.

This is a really, really good read. Scratch that, this is really good journalism. Maybe the most insightful thing I've ever come across on r/conspiracy, and from a mod no less. Definitely deserves a cross-post to s/conspiracy. I'm a little suspicious that it hasn't been memory-holed though.

DrStrangelove · 2019-02-27T05:12:39+00:00

Wow, actually worse than I thought. I really hope this scandal/movement becomes a force for good and not an excuse for more evil.

DrStrangelove · 2019-02-27T01:01:26+00:00

But why now? This has been going on for years, Elsagate anyone? This particular outrage is a decade too late and obviously manufactured.

Multiple life sentences for running a website :/ All of his convictions were for non-violent crimes. If it weren't for the war on drugs and the threat of crypto he might be palin' around with Bezos and Zuckerberg. Meanwhile big pharma continues to rake in billions from the completely legal and arguably engineered opioid epidemic. What's the opposite of a justice boner?

Legit, it's even in his wikipedia:

In 1951, along with many other Ivy League alumni, Buckley was recruited into the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA); he served for two years, including one year in Mexico City working on political action for E. Howard Hunt;[23] who was later jailed for his part in the Watergate affair. The two officers remained lifelong friends.[24] In a November 1, 2005, column for National Review, Buckley recounted that while he worked for the CIA, the only employee of the organization that he knew was Hunt, his immediate boss.

But as they say, once a company man...

*edit: He might have been a stooge within the CIA, as in rich kids playing spy

What a time to be alive.

side note: William F Buckley was CIA... and so is 4chan (probably)

This made me wonder if "offal" and "awful" have an etymological connection. Surprisingly, they do not.

As far as doom-porn goes, this guys stuff usually has pretty decent production value. At the very least, this video made me realize I haven't been paying enough attention to the current state of affairs in Venezuela. Also, dude might be Batman.
