The Torture Playlist

Music has been used in American military prisons and on bases to induce sleep deprivation, “prolong capture shock,” disorient detainees during interrogations—and also drown out screams. Based on a leaked interrogation log, news reports, and the accounts of soldiers and detainees, here are some of the songs that guards and interrogators chose.

Trust me, I just listened to this playlist, and it really is torture. Mixing Tupac into Christina Aguilera into Neil Diamond is really not right. Not right at all.

The new line of “bottoms” from the Lindsay Lohan collection. Let’s hope I can still get some “leopard ankle gloves” before they sell out.

The bit that starts at 7:25 and last about a minute is one of the better minutes you’ll spend in a science program.

yourmonkeycalled: Reactions Oprah announced she was doing one of her “Favorite Things” episodes, in which all the members of the audience receive cars, grills, trips, etc. The audience went APESHIT. They’ve gone apeshit before, but this was Kabuki-level, pure art APESHIT THEATER. So I had to take some pictures of my TV. See a few more images here. I highly recommend viewing these in the largest size, on the largest monitor you can find. Once you stop crying, please let me know how we can fix our country.

merlin: Maybe if Michael DeBakey had helped our President lie instead of saving thousands of lives with his 75-year career of fucking tireless brilliance, hard work, and ingenuity, CNN might have seen clear to give him the top spot today. Sorry, Mike, but no dice. But you’re definitely a strong second. Y’know, Doc, maybe, instead of dicking around helping to reinvent our modern understanding of heart disease, cancer, and smoking risk, you should have learned to play “blues flute.” Also, what was with all that education, health policy junk, and surgical procedure shit? Seriously. Get a room, dude. Anyhow. Tony Snow was on TV a lot and had a million-dollar smile. So. You know. Whatever.
