Contents of Bin Laden's computer released. Sorta NSFW Tweet

Not kidding: Osama Bin Laden had a big folder of classic game emulator cover art/screens and he LOVED weird bootleg babe games

(links to CIA source are provided in a following Tweet)

There were also Anime porn games and a Steam account which was used to play... Counterstrike, lol. Though it's worth noting that there was only one computer in the whole place and many residents, so that might've been one of the kids or guards or someone else.

NYT: US currently revoking passports of sex offenders and reissuing new ones which mark their conviction record in them.

“We do believe that this is a very slippery slope,” said Janice Bellucci, the founder and executive director of the group.

“Today, it’s people convicted of sex offenses involving minors, but, given the current political environment, perhaps next it will be Muslims,” she said. “Or maybe it will be people who are gay.”

I've heard that a lot of seized terrorist computers have porn on them, so I wouldn't be surprised.

@caylenb: who do y'all think Osama main'd in Super Street Fighter
@ChurdChamp: Cammy
@caylenb: agreed

Heh, her outfit is trashy enough.

At this point, it certainly feels safe to assume that any horrible idea you have, you can bet this government would at least contemplate it.

Someone stop this ride, I want off.

Not to mention that there are people on sex offender registries for consensual sexting between two minors.

Texas county sheriff wondering if he can charge someone with disorderly conduct over their "Fuck Trump and fuck you for voting for him" window sticker.

"Many families have called that have seen that truck on our county roadways and are very offended by the language on the truck," [sheriff] Nehls said. "I think they're walking a fine line."

But y'all weren't offended by anything the goddamned president said? The man in the White House bragged about grabbing women by the pussy, called Mexicans murderers and rapists, yelled about "bombing the shit" out of terrorists, called his rally attendees to "knock the crap" out of protesters, and that's just what I can cite off the top of my head.

But the word "fuck" next to the word "Trump" gives you the vapors? Then I'll refer you to that giant window sticker.

This is one of those people who, were they a character in a novel, would be totally unbelievable. Except for maybe a Chuck Palahniuk novel.

Jesus Headsploder Christ, that is legitimately disturbing to read. Like, if you gave that to me as part of a movie script for an insane character, I'd groan and tell you to dial it back because nobody actually writes like that.

A friend commented that "It's tragic that a man so clearly mentally ill committed suicide. It's even more tragic that he was a member of the party that ensures people with such conditions cannot receive the care they need."

Here is the longform investigative report on Dan Johnson which was published this week

It is basically the long sordid history of a pathological liar, blatant racist, sower of hate, arsonist, molester, fraud of the highest order, and general snake oil salesman.

A story a bit too familiar.

I read these events bottom-up, starting with Mongrel's post, with no previous awareness of Dan Johnson. I instinctively added 'Representative' to his name based on that description. Too familiar indeed.

A cat lady got Bill Gates as her Secret Santa. He did not disappoint.

(Not sure if it was the Reddit Secret Santa or the Imgur Secret Santa - it's on Imgur but there's a Reddit icon on the card)
