Julian Assange, Ecuador, Chevron, and the greasy world of Big Oil

This is what you call a Storify, and I’m not at all sure it will embed in a WordPress.com blog, even with all my tricks, so bear with me if I’m constantly editing this mofo.

Long story short: Heather Marsh, head of The Global Square, who is one of the most brilliant people I’ve ever met in my life, has come up with a possible link between the US pressure on the UK to invade the Ecuadorian Embassy and the economic interests of American oil companies in Latin America, including a possible debt for votes swap.

Okay, now that I’ve posted it I see it’s ugly as hell. I encourage you to read it on the Storify Site, where you can get an embed code to put it on your own blog, as long as it’s not a WordPress.com blog.

So why is this my problem?

I remember working for Fearless City…would have been about four years ago. The website’s been offline for three years. Still, no idea why I’m getting an email like this; I certainly never signed up to pay for any pro upgrades for them. Wonder if Hootsuite sent this to every member of the team?

So, whatcha gonna do, Hootsuite, repossess my interwebz?

HootSuite Header
Organization past due on payment

The organization FearlessCity’s Organization that you are a member of is past due on payment. It will be permanently removed from HootSuite in 13 days if no action is taken.
Why is this happening?

The organization owner has incorrect or expired billing information. We have contacted the owner, FearlessCity multiple times about this issue, but it is still unresolved.

To avoid the removal of this organization and disruptions to your HootSuite service, you have several options:

1. Pay for the organization
2. Send a message to the Organization owner
3. Leave the organization
Please login to HootSuite to address this issue

If this is not addressed within 13 days the organization will be permanently removed from HootSuite along with all the Social Networks in it. You will lose access to everything in the organization

No, I don’t think I’ll be doing that. NOW don’t you wish this had been sent from a reply-enabled email address?

I’ll just leave this here

A 500% (PERCENT!) increase in incarceration rates over the past thirty years. But don’t sweat it. You keep your head down. You focus on your work. You do what you’re told.

You just keep telling yourself everything’s fine. It’s what THEY would want.

GPOY and how are YOU this morning?

GPOY and how are YOU this morning?

What can I say? Between travelling to Ruralopolis again for a mini-working-vacation and writing up the Julian Assange Follies (or should that be the UK Foreign Office Follies?) for the Daily Dot, all overnight, I can’t say I’m well-rested.

Which is too bad, because apparently I have a wedding to plan. See you all on a nice, secluded beach in Ecuador soon. We’re registered at Jane’s Defence Weekly; we want matching night vision goggles. Can’t think what for…

  1. As a human being I can’t fly like a Dove,but my unspoken,mesmerizing memories can fly around this Universe….and in this way I can fly with the support of my Wings of Memories…

  2. And specifically what is the technical issue you are having with that?

    Have you done your pre-flight checklist?

    Are your ailerons and rudders functioning correctly?

    Have you cleared your flight plans and logged them?

    Are you in contact with the tower and queued for takeoff?

    Have you flushed your cache and cookies? They can really weigh you down.

  3. This is a support forum for wordpress.com bloggers who have issues with their blogs. We are not allowed to promote our blogs in this support forum, so I’m afraid you will have to fly away home.
