Clinton advisor Podesta is a sex magic witch: Drudge Report via Infowars via Wikileaks (seems legit)

So the band name is Red Hot Chili Podestas.

You’re just hanging in the wrong circles is all.

Except in Europe, there is that.

I haven’t; it’s a perversion of Buddhism, like the Catholic selling of indulgences.

Look, I realise this may be a revelation too far and perhaps I will regret posting it, but in my late teens I … did have sex with a witch who practised sex magic.
It is not an experience I imagine I shall ever regret.

I don’t think anything much can be determined from just the wikileaks email. Abramovic seems an odd bird, but it is not unreasonable to think that the event in question could be a normal dinner celebrating her strange art event. I would be hesitant to attend a dinner with her, considering her views on cooking. I would feel the same way about dining with Dr. Lecter, even if the menu said “chicken”.

I realize that Lecter is a fictional character.

Souls are at stake! These matters are too important to be left too ones own conscience!

It was a Kickstarter reward for people who backed a gallery she was building. (The Kickstarter page is still up.) She named the reward levels after former art projects, because that’s a cute thing artists with Kickstarters sometimes do. It could as well have been called “Persistence of Memory dinner” if it were hosted by Dalí.

They made soup.

I would still be a little hesitant to attend a dinner held by someone who comes up with those sorts of recipes as an art project. Reminds me of the joke about the Chinese restaurant fortune cookie that reads “That wasn’t chicken”. I do agree that the right wing panic over this seems to be unfounded. They seem to leap at any chance to scream about satanism.

Well, they say practice makes perfect.

The trouble with the 17th century is that the clothes are so ridiculous it is hard to take events seriously. Men in silly hats and long drawers translated the Bible into English, executed a king [and managed a highly destructive series of civil wars]*, and managed a rather peaceful invasion from Europe and takeover of England by the Dutch crown, while others around the world were busy murdering one another over religion.

*edited to avoid misunderstanding. I wasn’t suggesting the UK and the Netherlands were better than other places.

wikipedia notes 200,000 deaths.

Yes, yes, the Glorious Revolution was regarded as bloodless, but since you did bring up one king’s execution, I thought it only fair to mention the war.

I knew it!

I’m sorry, I wasn’t intending to gloss over the bad sides of the 17th century. I was purely referring to the way that the clothes in pictures tend to distract from the events taking place.

The filmmaker Jaques Peretti (I think) once referred to what happened when he took a fashion designer girlfriend to see Downfall. He commented that after the film he was walking around thinking what terrible events, how tragic, all those poor people killed" while she was saying “Do you think black leather and long boots would be a good look for Autumn?”
