The prosecution of Charles Manson for his cult's murders via brainwashing made claims about types of "mind control" MKULTRA was attempting to perfect, which wouldn't be revealed to the public until four years after his trial. His cult attended a clinic headed by one of the lead MKULTRA scientists.
There’s literally front page news articles from the day of the murders where in the corner you’ll see an article about one of the biggest illegal gun / drug busts in LA history and that was also Charles Manson and his cult and they dropped all charges the next day for seemingly no reason !
Highly recommend Chaos by Tom O’Neill especially since he’s just some guy who was like “oh there’s a drugs angle that was never really followed up on” and then slowly goes insane as he finds all this stuff that was just never covered or reported on
We are also taking Chicago. There's a ton of mexican people over there too. Hell last time I was there I barely use English.
You can keep Texas tho, we don't want that back, it's your problem now.
I wonder how the world would be different today if the design of intermodal cargo containers had incorporated some kind of access hatch for boxcar hobos so they could continue their lifestyle
It just hit me in the shower once and it occasionally just bubbles up to my conscious brain. I mean The Smiths were on the rocks by 86, so the timeline almost works. I also think about if DLR had hired Johnny Marr and not Steve Vai on SKYSCRAPER. Brains. How do they work?
I have a friend in SF who was in a Smiths cover band; if I get super rich I’m going to put him together with ¾ of the Atomic Punks and make the dream happen.
My first thought of this was how would the Van Halen boys deal with droll brooding lyrics over Hagar’s “awesome!” approach but realizing there is some overlap actually is astonishing. “Oh darling finish what you started / this no place for the broken hearted”
