Didn't this dude try to have someone assassinated because they were bad for business or some other petty shit?
The connection was made by linking the username "altoid", used during Silk Road's early days to announce the website, and a forum post in which Ulbricht, posting under the nickname "altoid", asked for programming help and gave his email address, which contained his full name
criminal mastermind (libertarian edition)
Trump does this for this questionable guy because someone whispered his name in his ear and yet Biden only commutes Leonard Peltier and puts him in a position where Trump can either have the FBI harass him to death in home confinement or maybe even send him right back to prison because he merely commuted the sentence rather than pardoning. Fuck Biden. Even when he does something sorta good it's done so ~~incompetently~~ incompletely and badly as to be almost more a taunt than a good deed.
because someone whispered his name in his ear
Crypto coin people.
it was a promise to the libertarian party. it was their one condition to free this guy to funnel votes to Trump
ah, that makes more sense. not as funny tho
I feel like this is him trying to one up Peltier. like he wasn't gonna do the j6 crew until Joe pardoned his fam, and then this is the 1:1 follow-up
Q: How do you know when a politician is lying?
A: Their mouth is open.
To be incompetent at something good they'd first need to intend something good.
That guy sold my best friend the drugs that killed him
That's a dope ass little plant you got there homie. I wonder what the story behind that is 🌱
I don't know why this specific person chose to own a plant. But, having been to prison, I know exactly how he got it.
We learn to love ourselves by learning to love others. An intentional progression often starts with a plant, then a fish, a cat, a dog, and then other humans.
Prisoners often suck at love for self and others. In the US, the best of Christians often fight for them to have rehabilitative programs to overcome substance abuse and learn to love. They also understand that most prisoners have tremendous value for any comfort or convenience not usually found in prison.
So, they get approval, give away plants to whomever wants them, and then teach their thing to whomever wants to show up.
Replying to my own post with my experience loving a plant.
The air in prison is cool and dry. We don't have access to larger pots. We only get partial sun for a few hours through our little cell window.
Keeping a plant alive means improvising materials to fix the cheap pot, curating every stem and leaf like a bonsai tree to keep it small, and replacing soil.
Replacing soil isn't allowed. We'd be searched before we went outside, then again more thoroughly before coming back inside. But, a few inmates ran a "store". It's like Red from Shawshank, with predatory prices and interest, enforced with third party physical violence.
For my cellmate and myself, I bought a a pair of $20 phone cards from commissary to pay the store for enough soil to fill two pots. Then, I taught my cellmate that we could split the worm.
(do) I wanna know how you got the worm(?)
Now do all the drug "offenders"... I am glad he got released somehow. Sucks the DOJ stole the 3B$ in buttcoin that was recovered which had been stolen from Silk Road. He "only" owed 180M.
