you may be aware that trip hop artists were sadly declared extinct in the wild about a decade ago due to the invasive spread of ‘lofi hip hop beats to relax/study to’. But did you know there’s a team of conservationists dedicated to preserving their natural habitat in the outskirts of Bristol? They’ve had some really promising efforts towards getting a fourth member of Portishead through their breeding programme and they’re testing habitats in Berlin, Marseille and the Balearics to see where artists can safely be released back into the wild. They’re open to the public too, it’s only like 20 minutes drive out of town. Most of them sleep during the day so you might not spot much but if you get really lucky DJ Shadow is very tame and might eat out of your hand.

Is reality tv a form of consensual abuse in a similar way to that bdsm is

Not really. It's basically economic coercion in many cases. Exploitation.

The way people are acting about Mangione's guilty plea is pissing me off. Again, much of the evidence they had against Mangione was seriously flawed or capable of being planted. Much of it should have been inadmissable. This is something we shouldn't cede because guilt needs to be proven beyond reasonable doubt in court. They did not do that. Many reasonable doubts remained, particularly for police forces we know have a history of fabricating evidence. Further, the strategy of the state is to pressure defendants into putting in a guilty plea on some kind of bargain. The reason Mangione did this is to get around the federal death penalty. Every day, people in America plead guilty to crimes they didn't do, because the cost of being found guilty by trial is too severe, and they have been intimidated or coerced to compliance. We have reason to believe Mangione was physically tortured at the beginning of all this. The guy has been the target of years of media campaign. There's no way he would have gotten a fair trial. As soon as he was arrested, everyone just accepted it was him. He could have gotten the death penalty. This is the exact kind of circumstance where people plead guilty to shit they didn't do.

It is less about this specific case and more about the principle of the matter. Particularly in a case so high-profile, we need to scrutinize the case of the state as much as humanly possible. We need to maintain awareness of how the state operates, how it prosecutes, how it punishes. This same pattern has played out with unknowable quantities of other people being ground to paste in the machinery of the prison industrial complex. This is a conversation everyone in America needs to be having. These are maneuvers every American needs to be aware of, particularly as the police state kicks into higher gear than we've ever seen it before. We cannot trust state prosecution. You need to maintain your skepticism, not for this case, but for all the cases that are going to follow it. We all need to hang onto this together.

Okay, not to undermine my point about this whole deal now that a bunch of you reblogged it, but I was misinformed about the federal death penalty thing and I got some information out of order. They plead to the federal charge with no formal deal to dismiss the state charges as a matter of double jeopardy. But even this is, also, a threat. Stop fighting or you'll get even more time. This whole process is waging war on a man's soul. Beating him and imprisoning him and saying you're trying to take the rest of his life from him. There's also very much the case that federal prisons are just nicer to be in than state prisons. Even still; if not death, then his decision was choosing which hell he goes to and for how long. Point about the rest of it still stands. Still the fact that the rest of this man's free life is being dangled in front of him, and that's something that may as well be death.

Ever looked into external ventricular drains? Of course md would have to be competent and believe you and capable of reading ur imaging but its a pretty consistent treatment for iih. I have it too and treatment was pretty much one spinal tap, 3x the normal pressure, and diuretics which . If i went back it would probably be high again bc my pulsate tinnitus is still kicking but. A treatment option to be aware of. Proud of you for being alive it is a really special kind of torment<3

I've been bringing up lumbar punctures for like. At least three years now. Maybe longer. I've brought it up to multiple neurologists. Particularly because, if possible, I'd just be interested in seeing what my neurotransmitter situation is like and it sounds like csf is the only way to really figure that out. The cerebrovascular specialist asked and sort of smirked when I said "I've been trying to get one for a while." But the pulsatile tinnitus and shit is the thing that makes it pretty undeniably intracranial hypertension. My head hurts when I cough. Sometimes I feel like I'm pushing a marble through my brain. This is all so ass bruther.
