Never got my canapes. Just sayin’.
Great show!
I too was disappointed by Disinfo’s failure to go dark on SOPA day. I’m glad you guys brought it up and discussed it. More noise than signal over there lately IMO. 2012? Well, here we are. Any rain yet? Less Graham Hancock, more Terrence McKenna. Know what I mean?
Indeed, what would Terrence do?
DMT of course. Another thing the suits have already made illegal, regardless of the fact that we synthesize it in our fucking heads.
If SOPA goes through then youtube is a bit fucked isn’t it?
