Wow.. Just read about “conflicts” over CoS probably played a role in her breakup with Fred Armisen.. Fred.. “Of[-] fred” The coincidences just keep piling up, Liz..

> do an aspirin commercial and isn’t that out tech?
What? I thought they were only against psychological drugs? Since when does aspirin have anything to do with neurotransmitters? (Yeah, I know, it probably *does* – but that’s not what it’s *known* for.)

Video is “Celtic Frost – Drown in Ashes” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BGVlf0723c) I think.

I wonder why the video embed doesn’t work? Disqus people?.. (Not letting people save the discussions except by a total save everything including i-frames and other HTML accouterments like in Firefox is also a pain for people who want to “research” long threads over time..)

“baby farm [..] Sea Org would totally do if ”

Wow.. I don’t think I ever ran into this in my week or so web-research about the nonsense of the Co$ a decade-odd back.. More shades of Handmaid’s Tale. *Why* exactly is Ms. Moss doing HMT I wonder? Prelude to .. saying goodbye to her family for a while (till they wised up)?

> backstory to the clampire [..] Moss serve up a ‘mystery sandwich [..] truth is just too awful.

“Awful”? You call the idea that we’re all descended from a giant extraterrestrial clam “awful”? More like *absolutely ridiculous*! (Or was it that we were cursed to live on Earth by the ET clam Xenu? I forget.)

> when Matt Lauer let Tom Cruise go spinning around like a burst balloon
That has “funny YouTube video based on the Bogart scene from Harry Potter” written all over it.

@Guest > So, we should heartily embrace Indian values such as enforced dowry,
suttee, gang rape, and shitting in the streets?
You forgot sati (bride-burning), and “revenge rape..

(Search “India gang revenge rape”, and see “India women: Arrests over ‘revenge rape’ in Jharkhand.” BBC News, 11 July 2014 [http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-28259634] )

Can you say “The Eyes”, Ms. Moss?

From “The Hungry Earth”?

RIGHT THING AND LEAVE.

Amen twice. I wonder if anyone has done a comparison between the Co$ vs. the breakaway groups, and Islamist/Wahabist Islam vs. the rest of Islam (“Mecca” Islam as Ayaan Hirsi Ali puts it in her book “Heretic”)? Specifically the views that the former (in both analogies) have “twisted” the words/teachings of LRH and Muhammad. Not that I’m saying that Co$/indepent-sceintology is “on the level” of Islam. And I’m certain such a comparison would make a LOT of people mad (“Gee, you want to get BOTH Miscavige AND ISIS *both* gunning for your behind?”), but it might be an interesting read.
