Orlando Letelier del Solar (1932 - 1976) was a Chilean economist, politician, and diplomat during the presidency of Salvador Allende who was assassinated by fascists via car comb on this day in 1976. After Allende was ousted in a coup and Augusto Pinochet came into power, Letelier fled to the United States and accepted several academic positions in Washington, D.C. In 1976, agents of Dirección de Inteligencia Nacional (DINA), the Pinochet regime's secret police, assassinated Letelier and his colleague Ronni Moffitt in Washington with a car bomb. These agents had been working in collaboration with members of the Coordination of United Revolutionary Organizations, a U.S.-sponsored anti-Castro militant group. According to John Dinges, author of "The Condor Years", documents released in 2015 revealed a 1978 CIA report that proved they had knowledge Pinochet ordered the murders. A State Department document also refers to eight separate CIA reports from around the same date. Pinochet, who died in 2006, was never charged for ordering these murders.

From the buoy's point of view (floating downstream) the ships move away from it at equal speeds in still water. Then they return at equal speeds in still water. Thus the two ships reach the buoy simultaneously.
Who took the pencil, who took the eraser?
I turned my back on two hexbears, :sicko-hexbear: and :hexbear-retro:, and asked that one take a pencil and the other an eraser. I said: "Whoever is holding the pencil - your number is 7. Whoever is holding the eraser - your number is 9."
(One number should be prime, the other composite but not divisible by the first.)
":hexbear-retro:, multiply your number 2. :sicko-hexbear: multiply your number by 3."
(One number should be a divisor of the composite number you called out, as 3 is a divisor of 9. The other number should not share any factor but 1 with the first.)
"Add your products and tell me the sum."
If the sum is divisible by 3, :sicko-hexbear: took the pencil. If not, :sicko-hexbear: took the eraser.
Why?
Like usual have fun :soviet-heart: and dm @Wmill the answer.
ngl, starting to get the feeling that the history of all hitherto existing society has been the history of class struggles
Just saw some pigs driving out of the apartment complex next to me with a crying child in the back seat.

Was depressed, then I took my hormones and now I'm fine. :shrug-outta-hecks:
A medieval flagellant being like, "Yeah, totally whipping myself in public to protect myself from the plague, that's the only reason." :side-eye-1: :side-eye-2:
Banned the wrecker / troll / whatever the fuck. Was that long enough for everyone to bully them?
I wonder how that witch girl who engaged in physic battle with Allah is doing
cw: covid death
Welp, my grandma died of covid. She'd been in a nursing home in Florida the entire pandemic so it's not like she had any control of any of it. She was really cool. Her mind had been going for awhile so it's like I've been mourning her years kinda. And she'd been in the icu for weeks so I've been seriously mourning her for that long too. But every time I think of her spending that long alone and in pain, I get sad and I get so furious at how absolutely needless it was.
Death to America
Something that's always bothered me is seeing people generalize indigenous people by applying many romanticized ideas to them. There are thousands of indigenous cultures and there's a wide variety in beliefs. Some have third genders while others actively ostracize anyone who isn't binary. Some are very peaceful while others engage in frequent warfare.
It's nice to see a narrative that in't entirely based on them being savages, but it still generalizes a wide group of people.
I like this game I'm gonna try

Imagine unquestioningly believing and repeating the transparently fucking stupid "they're not whips, they're reins dude" line less than a month after you and everyone else on your sub fell for the "they're not water jugs, they're explosives dude" line and unquestioningly believed and repeated it.
First forensic ballistics, now equestrianism. Is there any subject matter the free thinkin' brain geniuses at :reddit-logo: aren't perfect experts in?
