The youth of today will never know the lifelong suffering inflicted by having had a misnumbered album download off of Napster in 2006 and only learning it was misnumbered 6 years later so the album in its actual play order sounds perpetually Wrong. Thom Yorke's The Eraser continues to torment me.

I don’t recognize this feeling. Is uh…is this what it feels like to be proud to be an American.
Can't get over this. The first whistle blows before he's even got his door open. Within 10 seconds they are swarmed, but the crowd just keeps growing the entire time. The whole city is physically rejecting these assholes. Never seen anything like it.
Video of federal agents getting run out of Lyn Lake this afternoon. Agents drop a gas can at the end and someone kicks it back at them.
