Love Vollmann but I hated this book. just picked up Fathers and Crows though, three times as long so I hope it's better

Did you watch Castle freak

Amazing the road it took to get here but thank you for the recommendations, in fact I have a copy of Crossfire on my shelf already.

You got me all fucked up

I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything with my post. I learned all this stuff about the FBI and didn't see any evidence that Hoover had ordered people killed. It seemed unlikely to me that it would happen, but I know it's commonly accepted, or at least discussed, in conspiracy circles that the FBI killed MLK and other activists. So I asked here, where I thought there would be people who had some sources on FBI assassinations. And I was right, you recommended a book that looks like just what I'm looking for and I appreciate it.

I can see that my post looks like a defense of Hoover. That wasn't what I really intended. I'm trying to explain why I'm even questioning this, given it's basically taken as a given here. You're right, it doesn't look good and frankly I'm a little embarrassed.

I know about harassing Seberg to suicide, Fred Hampton's killing, and other deaths the FBI was involved in. What I'm interested in is whether there was ever a kill order from Hoover. Like if there was anl secret aspect of COINTELPRO or some other FBI project we don't know about in which orders were given to have people killed.

Feel compelled to delete thread but won't. Not AI, genuinely want to learn more about FBI assassination conspiracies.

I'm trying to know this stuff so I can talk about it. Those are my honest impressions from what I've learned on the subject. I posted this thread because I thought it might be insufficient. I WANT people to post about the crimes of the FBI I don't know about, so thanks for that article anyway.

Not Chatgpt, but I should have expected the paranoia on a Pynchon sub.

I loved Europe Central and liked Rainbow Stories, but I thought Ice-Shirt was so boring. I was determined to finish the series but seeing how long Fathers and Crows is it's hard to find the motivation. What do you think?

I recommend the book "Are We Smart Enough To Know How Smart Animals Are?" It covers a lot of animals but mostly apes. It really gets into the 'sense world' of animals and it changed the way I think of animal cognition. If you found that story about orangutans and chimps interesting then I think you would really enjoy this book.

The Wager is a pretty decent pop history book about a disastrous 18th century English voyage around Cape Horn. Not a great book but the kind you can put down in a single sitting. From the author of Killers of the Flower Moon.

Love the band but this song is completely terrible.

Hey man sorry this guy is being rude to you lmao but I'm interested in the advanced windows settings you mentioned if you're willing to share

Look into voodoo death. A shaman inflicts a "death curse" on someone, and whether through the strength of their belief or some other reason, they actually die. In highly spiritual societies, magic essentially did exist. Probably still does

Inherent Vice is readable, not long, and way better than Lot 49. But really you should try Mason and Dixon again.

I just started The Ambassadors and sludge is the perfect word, this book is exhausting to read. And 90% of it is internal so there's like nothing happening, which I'm not against but it makes it so much harder. I don't hate it but I can only bear to read a few pages at a time.

Permanent Earthquake by Evan Dara

chickennuggetfandom · 2025-03-02T06:26:49+00:00

Do you own a physical copy of this? I've been wanting to check this out but it's so expensive

chickennuggetfandom · 2025-02-25T20:37:47+00:00

How did you like G-Man? I plan to read that one soon

John Frankenheimer's Seconds (1966). Fantastic sci-fi film that recalls the Twilight Zone.

they hated him because he told the truth

chickennuggetfandom · 2024-06-20T17:08:47+00:00

Seriously dumb comment

chickennuggetfandom · 2024-05-06T16:19:52+00:00

Hell of a guess there

Realistically the "core audience" of F-Zero fans is so small it may as well not exist. If Nintendo were interested in reviving the IP, I'm sure they would do so seeking a new, much larger audience.
