Cop Confesses Under Oath to Knowledge About Diddy's Involvement in 2Pac Murder (and Doing Nothing!)

We've all known it forever, but to hear a police officer say it under oath is something different.  Diddy offered a bounty to have Tupac Shakur and Suge Knight murdered by the Southside Crips.  When only Tupac was killed, he paid $500,000 to middle man Zip Martin (deceased), who never gave it to the Crips.  

Ex-LAPD officer Daryn Dupree testifying under oath.

And there it is.  But here's something we didn't know:  they suspected the Southside Crips of also murdering 2Pac's rival Biggie Smalls because the Crips were never paid by Diddy for the 2Pac murder!  

Compton police officer casually discloses this bombshell.

There are so many things wrong with this picture I don't know where to start.  The officer above was assigned to a Biggie Smalls murder investigation task force when Biggie's mom sued the LAPD a few years back.  They STARTED with the assumption that Diddy paid for 2Pac's killing but did not share any evidence with Las Vegas Metro PD, the city where 2Pac's murder investigation took place.  It was just considered a given.  But they also suspected this payment was responsible for the death of ANOTHER beloved rapper and did nothing.  Then they acted surprised when Keefe D (of the Southside Crips) "confessed" to killing 2Pac and even gave him a proffer agreement as if it was valuable information.  Meanwhile for all these years, Sean Combs has been free to rape, beat & "disappear" more people.  

WHY DID NOBODY IN LAW ENFORCEMENT ACT ON THIS INFORMATION?  Could you or I pay half a million dollars to have someone--a celebrity--killed and be left alone by police entirely for THREE DECADES?  Fuck no, we couldn't.  It's immaterial whether the payment was given to the Crips or kept by the middle man.  He was also paying bounties of $10,000 for every Death Row chain the Crips could snatch in the run-up to the MGM fight that cost 2Pac his life.  That's literally why they attacked Orlando Anderson:  because of the Lakewood Mall incident in which a Death Row chain was snatched from MOB Piru affiliate Trayvon Lane's neck.  Take away the cash incentive from Diddy and that likely never would've happened.  

I've said it before but Diddy was more involved in the 2Pac murder than Charles Manson was in the "Manson Murders".  If this heartless murdering chomo is released from prison without standing trial for the killing of 2Pac, it's 100% proof positive we live in a gangster society where wealth excuses murder.  I say investigate the cops who knew this info and didn't share it as well.  Were they paid to keep quiet?  Threatened?  Did they already know Diddy was a Fed asset and just left him alone?  

There's a lot of blood on a lot of hands and nobody currently paying for it except a low-life half retαrded blowhard named Keefe D.  🤬

Attack of the Clones

No.

Just a quick question for all the proudly unmedicated schizos* who like to claim that various celebrities & other public figures have been killed and "cloned".  WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?  Do you realize how utterly retarded you sound?  How out of touch with reality you are?  I'm serious.  Everything else you say after this point goes straight into the 🗑 because the premise for your thinking is so faulty it's not worth humoring, kinda like that maniac Daniel David Palmer who created the chiropractic discipline based on ghosts telling him some shit.  I--here, see for yourself:

Chiropractic is quackery and its creator was insane.

...thus, nothing that comes after that kind of faulty premise can be of legitimate factual basis.  The foundation has to be solid before the rest of the argument can be taken seriously.  So when you make the absurd, unproven and supernatural claim that a human being has been secreted away and replaced with an exact physical replica in the form of a clone or a body double, you'd better come with some airtight evidence to prove it.  It's similar to how that grifting maroon Alex Jones started the "crisis actor" nonsense during the Sandy Hook tragedy.  I don't know if you guys are smoking too much weed or what, but it's not doing nice things for your perception of reality.  Stop it.

The most recent public figure I saw make this embarrassing claim was a guest on SNL alum Jim Breuer's Youtube show, and he absolutely did nothing to refute or deny the idiotic claims.  In fact, it was his own vague claims about comedian Dave Chappelle, once his close friend and co-star on projects like Half Baked, that prompted the guy's comments.   See below:

Hunh?

Breuer claims Dave was "visited" by unnamed assailants shortly before his trip to Africa in the early 2000s and then lets his guest run with the suggestion.  It's a shame because other claims he's made about what goes on in Hollywood were intriguing and troubling, and I wanted to believe him.  I actually liked him on mid-'90s era SNL, but it seems like he's gone around the bend to the religious fundie side which tends to be tits-deep in conspiracy BS like this.  

And let me just say, it does a major disservice to actual victims of financial exploitation, sexual abuse, human trafficking, child abuse of all kinds... everything bad that happens in Hollywood, D.C. and other "institutions".  When "run-of-the-mill" horrors like those I just listed aren't enough to keep your attention so you sprinkle in supernatural, sci-fi or fantasy elements, you're diverting focus from victims and helping abusers.  Read that until you understand it.  Don't nobody want to hear about aliens, vampires, zombies, cloned humans or other Satanic Panic, L. Ron Hubbard-level horseshit when researching the awful things humans do to each other.  We want offender names and other useful details.  Preferably you'd turn this info over to the cops instead of the Internet Bureau of Investigations, but if you're going to vent it publicly, at least stay on topic.

It's the same with people who allude to a "Jewish conspiracy" running the banks, the media, Hollywood, Wall Street & other powerful institutions:  it's not that such a thing would be impossible with the America-Israel alliance; the problem is nobody ever provides a shred of evidence to support said conspiracy.  No names, no examples of Jews in high places abusing their power (personal anecdotes we haven't heard of, I mean--things only the victim and maybe a handful of others know), specific times/places/receipts.  It's all vague allusions to "tunnels," New World Orders and some shit Kanye said while in a nitrous induced yes-man enabled manic state.  When I say "proof," I don't mean a sus 1940s-era quote from an Israeli leader or similar.  I.  Mean.  Proof.  Something you could present in a court of law:  raw video, unretouched photos, financial receipts, flight logs, security cam footage, etc.

If you're afraid for your safety, there's always privacy measures like remaining anonymous by using a VPN + incognito browser & sharing the info with a journalist or other 3rd party via encrypted email like Protonmail based in Switzerland.  For added safety, type the text part of your message into a website like privnote or one of its competitors & link it in the email.  Strip your photos and videos of their Exif and metadata before sending.  If you have a Chromebook, restart it and log back in as "Guest" so it doesn't link your activity to your real email account.  Whatever you gotta do, but stop with the vague allusions to things that most certainly didn't happen.  It doesn't make you sound smart or powerful unless you consider the guy pushing a shopping cart on the street and muttering at the clouds to be a powerful genius.  🛒🚶🏻🗯

No CEOs on Death Row: My Beef with the Death Penalty

Since absolutely nobody asked, here's my main gripe with capital punishment.  (Well, aside from all those botched and rushed executions in the face of possibly exculpatory evidence).  My #1 issue with the death penalty in America is its unequal application.  Most people on death row are indeed guilty of their crimes, and horrific crimes they are.  They deserve to be where they are.  But they shouldn't be there alone.  Black people and other minorities/poor people are disproportionately represented to the point that they're nearly the only people represented at all.  When's the last time you saw an American CEO or multi-millionaire on death row?  Oh, right.  Never.  Not once, even when they committed murder or mass murder knowingly in the name of greed.  A few notable examples include:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Bayer AIDS scandal:  In the 1980s, Bayer's Cutter Biological division knowingly sold HIV-tainted hemophilia blood products to Asia and Latin America. The company continued to export the high-risk, non-heat-treated product for roughly a year after developing and releasing a safer, heat-treated alternative in the US and Europe.  Thousands of hemophiliacs (i.e. male children) in countries across Asia, Latin America & the rest of the world contracted HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C as a direct result of these products.  AIDS was a death sentence at this time.  TL;DR - Bayer infected thousands of children with a progressive, fatal disease with no cure rather than lose a few dollars.  Mass murder on a global scale.

The BP Oil Spill:  The 2010 BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, which released 134 million gallons of crude oil, was one of the largest environmental disasters in world history.  According to Wikipedia, Marsh vegetation was reduced along 350 to 720 miles of shoreline, while between 4 and 8.3 billion harvestable oysters were lost.  Between 51,000 and 84,000 birds, 56,000 to 166,000 juvenile sea turtles, and an estimated 2 to 5 trillion newly hatched fish were killed, alongside up to a 51% decline in the Barataria Bay dolphin population.  Rare deep-sea corals and red crab communities were affected across roughly 400 to 700 square miles near the wellhead, and recreational losses from reduced boating, fishing, and beachgoing were estimated at $527 million to $859 million.  Again, more death and disease as well as economic and environmental devastation inflicted on unwilling participants in the name of profits.

The Monsanto Agent Orange scandal:  Monsanto, along with companies like Dow Chemical, was one of nine government contractors that manufactured the toxic herbicide Agent Orange for the U.S. military during the Vietnam War between 1965 and 1969. The chemical was heavily contaminated with dioxin (TCDD), causing devastating long-term health and environmental consequences for both native Vietnamese people & returning U.S. troops.  Historical records have shown that internal Monsanto officials knew about the extreme toxicity of the dioxin contaminant in Agent Orange as early as 1962.  In 1984, Monsanto and other manufacturers agreed to a $180 million out-of-court settlement for U.S. veterans exposed to the chemical. However, subsequent lawsuits filed by Vietnamese victims against the manufacturers were consistently dismissed by U.S. courts, which ruled the government held immunity for wartime actions.  Translation:  Sorry, G00ks.  We actually meant to inflict generations of birth defects, cancer and metabolic disease on you so you get nothing.  Ya dirty commies.

The 2018 PG&E Campfire:  Erupting on November 8, 2018, in Butte County, this was the largest wildfire in California history.  It was sparked by faulty Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) transmission lines & worsened by high winds, which drove the blaze into the communities of Paradise and Concow, resulting in 85 fatalities and destroying over 18,000 structures.  The catastrophic wildfire blazed for 17 days, ultimately burning 153,336 acres and causing an estimated $16.5 billion in damages.  So all that hubbub about whether this was a result of climate change or California not cleaning up their leaves was a distraction--it was actually caused by corporate greed & negligence.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

These are just a handful of examples; there are many others.  Each of these crimes was a top-down decision made by an actual human or group of humans with full knowledge of what they were doing, and there's documentation to prove it.  Yet not a single CEO or other person in a leadership position spent a single day in jail for these crimes, nor were the companies shut down after the fact.  At worst, corporations and their leaders are usually subject to petty civil suits, even when the crime is an obvious criminal offense. They "settle out of court for an undisclosed amount" with the stipulation that the victims can never speak on the issue in public again and that's that.  A chilling effect on our so-called freedom of speech when it's perhaps most important to speak out.




Corporate Death Penalty

A question was raised recently about whether industries that kill more people than they employ annually, such as the tobacco and coal industries, should have a "corporate death penalty".  It went mostly unnoticed.  What would this even look like?  Why should there be a separate death penalty for corporate leaders and the rest of us?  The two-tiered justice system has been a massive failure already--just take money out of the current legal system and treat everybody the same.  That's all we want.  

Get rid of for-profit bail bondsmen, make quality legal representation available to all, do away with pre-trial detention for everyone except violent offenders and those proven to be a flight risk & quit cutting "deals" with rapists, child abusers, murderers & other violent fucks.  No negotiating with terrorists, goddammit.  Plea deals encourage false confessions while allowing horrible monsters to serve unjustly short sentences.  Enact truth-in-sentencing laws in all 50 states and stop locking up petty non-violent offenders like drug users/dealers, small time thieves  and sex workers who actually need treatment, not incarceration.  Focus on actually reforming people while they're locked up instead of making them perform slave labor for the state and corporations.  And do away with the prison informant testimony BS which is about as reliable as a Scientology e-meter.

Yeah right, like that'll fucking happen.  Prison is a for-profit racket just like everything else in this hellhole nation.  Another source of slave labor, nothing more.  🇺🇲💰🫱🏽‍🫲🏻

The U.S. is willing to not only tolerate but protect any industry that makes some fat cat in suit rich as long as he's willing to play along with the lobbying, ass-licking Capitol Hill Olympics.  Who cares if the only thing they sell is death?  That's capitalism, babay!  Employ literal children in your slaughterhouses illegally by the hundreds, some of whom lose limbs or die on the job after being hired with fake/stolen IDs?  Punishment:  Pay a fee equal to a few dollars to the average American and keep right on going.  Do not lose your business license, do not go to jail, do not get put on trial or sit in prison even one motherfucking day.  But get caught with a crack rock and $50 in your pocket and it's off to prison for drug distribution, even if you've never sold drugs a day in your life.  This is the state of corruption in the "greatest nation on Earth" and our media is making sure we hear as little about it as possible so we don't 🔥 it all to the ground.  (We're saving that for the 🤖📈 centers.  I kid.  They'll be protected by killer robot dogs so good luck).

So yeah, in conclusion that's my #1 issue with the death penalty: who it's NOT killing.  The things we view as violent vs. normal in this society are incredibly twisted.  Shoot one guy in a suit dead in the street?  That's violence!  Sit in an office killing thousands of people with "delay, deny, defend" tactics via a service they've already paid for (that people in other developed nations don't even have to pay for) as they die of horrific time-sensitive diseases?  Not violence! 

When people like Trump say they "love the uneducated," this is exactly what they mean.  They love complacent, ignorant people who blindly swallow the narratives fed to them by the idiot tube because they're easier to control.  📺

[Cannabis Review] - Elevated Hemp Co: Pineapple Express THCa (3.5 grams)

 As promised, here's Part 2 of my 2-Part THCa flower review.

This one's from Elevated Hemp Co. and it's a tad higher-shelf than the other, at least technically.  I ordered it on a Friday and received it the following Monday.  The strain is Pineapple Express and I got 3.5 grams of it for $39.98 with shipping included.  I thought I HAD tried this strain but turns out that was Golden Goat.  Or Cookie Wreck, which shares the Trainwreck lineage with PE.  I don't remember; I've smoked since then.  Here's the photo shown on the website:

Pineapple Express from Elevated Hemp Co.






Packaging was stealthy enough--no smell from the outside.  But that all changed when I tore into it.  Holy pineapple! 🍍 It came in a tightly (and I do mean tightly) sealed plastic jar with a Boveda pack, some Elevated Hemp Co. merch and a pack of free natural leaf rolling papers... nice touch!!

The smell was definitely on brand--pure pineapple with a hint of spice.  Buds are tightly packed, well-groomed & covered in trichomes.  I do think they could've skipped the Boveda pack though, as the weed clearly was still damp & in need of a cure.  Into the cure jar it goes.  





As broken up as I could get it w/out a grinder...

At the time of this writing, this strain had only 2 reviews but they were both 5 of 5 stars.  I'm about to see for myself if it lives up to the Pineapple Express hype.  The rolling papers are made out of chamomile and smell like a blunt wrap, but they're nicotine-free.  Very nice.  And glad they included them because the bong my mother got me is missing the bowl.  Bummer.  

Pineapple Express THCa flower

I roll the poorly dried material into a natural leaf paper and seal it to the best of my ability.  I decide to light up during my bath, which has become my favorite way to smoke this summer.  So relaxing.  Despite the dampness of the buds, it hits super smooth in these tasty wraps and tastes soft & slightly floral.  The effects are definitely in the expected range, producing an uplifting cerebral high after only a few puffs.  The initial high mellows out into a happy, chill effect after about 20 minutes, leaving me with an overall positive mood...  much better than when I woke up.  Music sounds great and I'm still getting shit done in terms of chores--thus, no heavy stone or sedation.  Excellent daytime/morning strain.  Despite the questionable dry/cure, it burns just fine when rolled up.    

Biggest bud in the batch.

My biggest concern with THCa weed was that it would be too dry and dusty, but this was just the opposite.  It's clear Elevated Hemp Co. takes their business very seriously, as evidenced by the extra freebies, fast shipping and careful packaging.  The only drawback of this order was the lack of proper dry/cure, though that's a fixable problem.  The quality is top-tier and I'd definitely order this strain again.  For that reason, my final review score will be as follows:

Price:  4.7 of 5 stars
Packaging/Stealth:  4.8 of 5 stars
Shipping Time:  4.9 of 5 stars
Effects:  4.9 of 5 stars
Aroma:  4.9 of 5 stars
Overall:  4.8 of 5 stars

Litter & the Ozone Hole: the Good Old Days

Remember when our biggest environmental worries were littering and recycling?  I do.  As an '80s baby and a '90s child, I really believed we could make a difference as individuals.  Boy, how naive and simple-minded THAT turned out to be.  But in my defense, we did manage to tackle a very real and imminent threat in those days:  the gaping hole in the ozone layer.  Rather than protest and deny reality until it was too late, world leaders got together with scientists to quickly phase out chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and replace them with substances that didn't destroy this vital barrier between the sun and the Earth.  I shudder to think how this would've gone if it happened in the internet age, when denialism is rampant.  We'd probably be burnt to a crisp right now.  In late 1999, the world pulled off another herculean feat when tech experts got together to address the Y2K computer crash scare juuuust in the nick of time.  Whew.  

Ahh, the good old ozone hole.  A simpler time.

But somewhere along the way, the rise of the internet in American homes complicated things.  Rather than making people more enlightened by making information available for free at the click of a button, it served to confuse fact with opinion to the point we can hardly tell the difference between the two.  Rather than asking good faith questions and using the internet to follow the evidence wherever it leads, people go backwards, starting with a conclusion already in mind and seeking out evidence to support it while discarding anything that doesn't.  This is called confirmation bias and we've all been guilty of it at times.  Echo chambers on social media make it almost impossible to avoid because they're tailor made to show us only the information we like & interact with regardless of any factual merit.  This has caused civil wars in Myanmar, major election scandals here in 2016 and a COVID disinformation campaign in 2020 that caused untold deaths & suffering.  

We're now so far into the climate change and aridification danger zone that death and destruction are almost guaranteed within my lifetime if I live to be older than 60.  Water wars, extreme storms, heat waves, mass extinctions of beneficial insects and aquatic species, the spread of vector-borne and other diseases, rising sea levels and sinking cities... these are very real threats, and to accelerate the destruction, we're building data centers on top of our aging power grids right in the middle of residential neighborhoods.  Unlike in the '80s with the ozone hole, the oil companies have so infiltrated the cultural conversation that about half the population refuses to believe man-made climate change is real, let alone an existential threat. 

Even though everyone from Gen X onward learned about greenhouse gases and "global warming" starting in elementary school, people remain in denial.  Even as half the country deals with rampant wildfires while the other half is under water and Tornado Alley shifted to the East, producing record numbers of deadly night time storms.  Even as capital cities like Jakarta, Indonesia (population: 1 billion+) are so far underwater they had to move the capital elsewhere and the Marshall Islands have sunken completely & had to be evacuated forever.  

This is the part in the Rat Utopia study when all Hell broke loose and the rats started raping, killing and brutalizing each other, then stopped reproducing altogether.  When a portion of males stayed indoors and obsessively groomed themselves 24/7 and the females became aggressive and killed their young as the carnage carried on outside.  When the remaining young generation had no "normal" adults to teach them how to be functioning adult mice, so they just froze in place and failed to reproduce or do anything else normal, causing the entire population to die out.  Mice are a great, if imperfect predictor of human biology & behavior, which is why we use them in so many animal studies.  The males typically act as "protectors" of the females and young just like most primates (including humans) do... at least when their colonies are functioning properly. 

We are here.

In Rat Utopia, it was overpopulation that triggered the downward spiral of death and destruction, and that is exactly what's led to the rise of problems here in Human Utopia as well.  We know that climate change is man-made, as are deforestation, extinction of wildlife species (caused by our ever expanding development of land, aka "habitat loss"), pollution of the air/water/Earth, the hole in the ozone layer which is still healing, radioactive waste disposal, over-consumption of resources like oil & gas that took millions of years to form & more.  As science allows us to live longer, we'll have to limit the sheer number of people being born or nature will do it for us, and it won't be pretty.  Americans are already having fewer children due to the cost of living and quality of life issues like uncontrolled pandemics and violent culture wars.  If this alarms you, don't pressure people to have more babies, pressure politicians and community leaders to make this country livable again & stop destroying the planet for future generations. 

Would YOU want to be born, helpless and screaming, into today's world exactly as it is?  I wouldn't.  Somebody's gotta be that last generation of young mice with no normal role models and no future, and I sure wouldn't want it to be me.   

[Cannabis Review] - Black Tie CBD: Bolo Runtz Indoor (1 oz Trim/Shake)

 

Close-up of Black Tie's trim/shake




Here's Part 1 of my THCa strains review.  For this one, I decided to go for quantity > quality and pick up an ounce for the lowest price I could find.  Hence, Black Tie CBD's $31 ounce of trim and shake ($43.04 with shipping/tax included).  I've seen mixed reviews for this vendor, but most of the bad ones were from years ago so I thought, why not stock up and get as much quantity as I can while the gettin's good since Trump's got a ban scheduled for November?  Obviously buds are preferable but is this really that much worse in terms of quality, or do I just enjoy the appearance of buds?  How much of a role does bag appeal really play in the end result when it comes to effects? 

I'm about to find out.  (Dun-dun-duuuuun).

Bolo Runtz whole flower

Pretty sure this is my first time EVER buying an entire ounce at one time and I'm excited, even if it is just the nasty bits.  One of the biggest PROS about trim/shake aside from the price is that it requires minimal breaking up or grinding and is ready to be rolled up or packed in a pipe or bong as-is.  (Speaking of bongs, my notoriously anti-drug mother bought me a nice glass bong for "Christmas" but agreed to give it to me early in light of this special circumstance, which was nice.  Of course she also called me a "homo" recently, so that wasn't great.  Just a regular week in Bipolarworld I suppose).   

Shady Pines, Ma.

 

Anyhoo, Bolo Runtz is described as a 50/50 hybrid strain descending from Gelato x an unnamed Zkittlez Family strain.  And y'all KNOW how much I love Zkittlez.  THCa content is 26.80% on this batch, which was harvested in November 2025.  Honestly that's a long time ago but I'm withholding judgment until I give it a try.  Aroma is described as pine gas, sweet earth, creamy citrus and herbal diesel.  Yum.

I ordered this on a Friday afternoon and received it the following Monday morning, which was damn impressive.  Packing and stealth were perfect, with nothing about hemp or CBD on the outer packaging.  As someone who's had a domestic order of hemp seized by law enforcement in the mail, that was important.  The last thing I need right now is a(nother) heart attack.  Inside was a sealed bag containing the good stuff.  Still no smell, but the second I ripped the seal off the bag (but before I'd even opened it), the strong smell of skunk hit my nose hard.  When I actually opened the bag, it was game on!  🦨💨  Upon second whiff, I could detect more of a nuanced scent--notes of berries and soft herbal sweetness were apparent.  I'm not usually big on smell when it comes to weed, but this is truly impressive for trim/shake.  

The flavor is actually tastier than what I'm used to as well:  very soft and inoffensive.  It burns evenly in a joint and has a smooth, gentle high that I really enjoy.  I feel clear headed but definitely am in less pain than when I started, and I've only finished about 1/3rd of a joint.  Don't wanna smoke too much in case the landlady comes up here, but there's really no need--I'm already about as high as I'd wanna be on a Monday morning. The texture isn't overly dry or unpleasant either like you might expect.  No real comedown to speak of with this strain, and the munchies are manageable.  Kinda ideal for my needs.  

My photos

Additional experiments reveal more of the same--this is good stuff.  As good as anything I've gotten in local medical dispensaries.  And I definitely chose the right strain to stock up on, as this shit is the closest thing to my beloved Zkittlez as anything I've found.  

My conclusion:  While this looks like the worst homegrown you ever smoked as a Gen X teen growing up in the Midwest, it hits like dispensary weed in both smell and effects.  There's nothing about the actual quality of this weed that's lower than if it were in bud form, and it's actually more convenient to roll as it doesn't require any grinding or breaking up.  It's ugly as hell to look at, but don't be fooled--once you smell it you know it's high quality stuff.  And once you smoke it you forget that it's shake or even THCa weed. 

This was not the review I expected to write but I'm pleasantly surprised.  I could see myself buying a few more of these ounces before the Big Stupid Ban in November.  It's high quality, budget-friendly & goes a long way in terms of quantity.  Now to figure out how to store it long-long term, because ain't no way I'll be using all of it in a timely manner.
