    Mkultra is STILL treated like some nut job conspiracy theory.

    I bring it up as example of how the government will do whatever to whoever and lie for decades, fuck the consequences.

    People look at me like I’m crazy, and plenty have even straight up told me mk ulta isn’t real, is just a conspiracy, just an excuse for hippies who did too many drugs, any number of “that didn’t happen” excuses. Including “if it actually happened, we would know”. To which I responded “THEY FUCKING ADMITTED IT” and that was the end of the conversation because I cursed and therefore lost an “argument” I didn’t know I was in…

    Ohio is crazy…

        I was happy to read that he felt like he failed in his work with the CIA.

        It doesn’t excuse anything but I do take great joy in him knowing that he was a failure at his lifes work in the end. For someone like him I bet that really messed with his head.

      There’s nothing wrong with Ohio…except the snow and the rain.

      I really like Drew Carey, and Id love to see the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

          Seriously. Am here. Counting down until I can gtfo. Fuck this place. If I’m going to live in a right wing redneck goat rodeo, it had better have nice weather or a beach. No, lake Erie doesn’t count.

          I think you’re the only one.

          But it’s still a band and theyve done a few albums lately and had some bangers. Getting old sucks, but they’re still fun.

          Also that cover album a couple years ago set me off on a whole pop-goes-punk phase, and I contend it’s still the best version of Flowers.
