If you have a moment check out the episode of Stay Tuned when Preet hosted McFaul. Putin systematically harassed McFaul, had people follow him around, show up at his kids soccer game, break into his apartment and use the bathroom etc. Only safe places to have a conversation was the SCIFs at the embassy.

You know, a lot happened in April '92. I learned that from a sublime song.

Edit: to everyone asking which song

It has also come to my attention that many people born that year are redditors.

Guess the link is bad, try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkoMXxN_p3Y

It can be a terrifying way to go by the sounds of it.

I listened to the SYSK podcast on Cave Diving and one way you're likely to die if inexperienced is through disorientation and/or panic.

In the often pitch black cave it can be easy to lose track of where you are, and apparently even to know what is up and down. As well as this there can also be times where a cloud of silt will be all around you in the water completely obscuring visibility. In these situations not only do you have to be trained to know what to do, but you have to overcome the entirely natural urge to panic.

Shit really is scary.

There’s a fantastic episode of the podcast “Behind the Bastards” on him. I was particularly moved by the story of Rosemary Kennedy. Will give this a watch when I’m feeling more prepared for it.

Edit: I should clarify that you get a Hulu subscription for no extra cost only if you already have a student discounted Spotify subscription. You have to sign up for this in a certain way and I think it's only available in the US

Edit 2: I think this is the link to sign up for the Hulu account. It's from September so it might not still work right

I'm listening live right now, and it sounds like they're having technical difficulties and just playing clips to stall. Hannity is probably having a breakdown.

EDIT: He went on and mentioned Cohen. He'll decide whether he'll put out a statement later on, for now he's playing clips of Comey. Man oh man, you can't write this shit up.

If this isn't a case for Apple's version of Spotify Connect, don't know what is.

As it stands now, you can't use your iPhone's Music app to control Apple Music on Alexa devices, Google Home/Nest devices, and now PS5.

Tom Petty is another artist who is famous for legal progress on the behalf of artists in the industry. The article reminds me of "Won't Back Down - Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers"

Please upvote this for others to see. It is a relatively easy fix.

1. Go to your Deezloader intallation directory
2. Go to the resources/app directory
3. Open the file called deezer-api.js with notepad
4. CTRL+F and enter the following: Deezer.prototype.init
5. Replace that part of the code with the following one:

Time for me to copy and paste one of my favourite reviews:

>Do you know why everyone keeps writing the same review of this album? You know the one-the one with the street lights and the rain and the cold night air and the bus rides and the fast food and the melancholy? The kind that every wise-ass takes the piss out of? > >I think I know why, and it's the same reason why we sometimes look at a painting and want to live in it. We want to live in a London as stylized and strangely beautiful as the one in Untrue-we want those walks to the corner store at three in the morning, those nights on the subway staring out the window and thinking about the rain, those nights with a crappy omelet and a cup of coffee that tastes like turpentine. Because when you feel misunderstood and lonely, leaning against a lamppost with your sigh captured in the autumn air is much more pleasant an idea than staring glassy-eyed at a computer screen in semen-stained boxers while searching desperately for some sort of music to wake you up and make you feel something. We're not just waxing lyrical about the fog and the moon and the taxis to get likes, we're trying to get closer to the world we were shown in Untrue. It's melancholy as escapism, and it's beautiful.

Try spotify premium for 99c for 3 months. I believe new customers only. But give it a try see which is best. Just remember to drop it before the 3 months is up if you don't want to renew.

Spot on about going somewhere with good music. When I hear DJs playing top 40 radio songs, it instantly ruins my experience. I might just be really pessimistic or elitist, but unless it's techno/tech house/minimal/deep I can't enjoy it or dance to it.

edit: currently tuning into Luciano's Ibiza set from a few days ago. I'll stay at clubs till day break if this is going down...

Been listening to It Could Happen Here podcast recently and was surprised to find how plausible I found the speaker's hypothesis, something that 3 years ago I'd have found to be fringe lunacy.

I use rate your music and that tends to have a lot of stuff that doesn't make it high up on here.

The podcast Behind The Bastards has a good episode on the Krassenstein twins and the scams they are involved in, if youre interested in a deeper dive into their background! Also good podcast all around.

its hard to assemble all the details as they flood in at one place without running afoul of personal information. But court records show she was charged with defamation by a former employer in 2000, she was charged with domestic violence in 2001. She received multiple personal / professional / dating reviews on MyLife- all timestamped and verified from years ago- that recount numerous people telling stories like "She'll send you to jail by lying like she did with me." (Jun 18, 2017), "she's a cheater and a thief and will sell her body to anyone to get what she wants." (May 5, 2016), ""She's a filthy whore you seeks out married men." (Aug 29, 2018)

You can listen to one of her neighbors and family friends describe her here:

Note that her neighbor makes large numbers of verifiable details about her family, street, jobs, etc that prove that he's not a bullshitter. He knew tons about her from growing up, and described her as a total nutcase

I've read and heard so much good and bad about Prince, I have no idea what to believe. Back when ?uestlove used to post on the OKPlayer forums (he might still, I have no idea) he was full of awesome Prince stories. Prince's guest hosting appearance on the new Muppet Show is one of the all-time funniest things I've ever seen and it's just him making fun of himself the entire time.

EDIT: Intro: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Os4Qs2GAq4

EDIT: Rest of show: https://myspace.com/mike.couey/video/muppets-tonight-featuring-prince-/22721159

Sorry for the MySpace link. It's the best I could find. The entire show is still hilarious. IIRC, this was during the few years where Prince had completely isolated himself from the entertainment world. Like, he just disappeared for a while and no one could reach him. Apparently, he loved the Muppet show and asked them if he could be a guest star.

I looked up the terms and conditions but I didn't see anything about US only. This offer was shown and found on the Spotify US website, though.

Huh. I was wondering why this looked familiar: I took that photo in Berlin, during the QtCon 2016.

Good to see u/jbkempf and VLC getting some love outside the Free Software bubble. I had the opportunity of talking to him live and he told me how they have to fight off patent trolls and aggressive copyright lawyers all the time. He also told me a fun story about the beginning of the project.

We made a transcript and posted it here.

Have we talked about how iheartradio reported this was a song with Charli XCX because of a /r/popheadscirclejerk post? I'm dying.

~~I really should have jumped on the $.99 for 3 months deal they had a couple days ago~~ It's still up, but to be completely honest I don't get out of the house enough to justify the $10/month that it becomes afterwards. Especially being a high school student, I'm really only listening to music on mobile to and from school. Otherwise I'm at my computer or listening to podcasts.

Ex-SM trainee ACE is from Kazakhstan. He is now part of Ninety One who are basically KPop but in the Kazakh language.

There's also that Russian girl that was part in a super nugu group last year.

Well just to piggyback on your comment, here's the Pandora station I like to use.

EDIT: For anyone who can't use the link for whatever reason, the station is Dragon Age: Origins. Sorry, I am a Grooveshark migrant and I'm not real slick with Pandora yet.

u/ascendingstorm this is fucking rad. I checked out your art station and your website per another commenter. Your art is just... awesome and really thought provoking. This is coming from someone who doesn't really like surrealist art. Love your expression, man.

TLDR no

Such an impressive version of the song for such a worthy cause. I'll do my part in bringing it to Dave's attention with this article going out to all iHeartRadio rock stations: https://www.iheart.com/content/2017-12-26-choirs-moving-foo-fighters-cover-will-give-you-chills/

I think if {Iowa State} comes out and plays like they did against West Virginia, they'll have a shot at winning this. Also, I would not be surprised if Matt Campbell pulls third-string QB Re-Al Mitchell out of his hat and unleashes him on the Longhorns. Should be a good game.

#DownWithLonghornNetwork

Extremely Late Edit: Here is a link to a stream of 100.3 FM, which in the Ames/Des Moines area is the radio station that broadcasts Iowa State football games. Obviously listening to a game is not the same as watching it, but if you want, you can do what I do for when I'm watching an Iowa State game on the computer, is mute the volume on the stream (be it Hulu or something from /r/CFBStreams), and then listen to the radio because 9.99/10 times Iowa State's radio announcers are way better than most of those talking heads on the national, or other extremely local^^Seriously, ^^Screw ^^LGHN networks. The only downside to this approach is that the radio is almost always 1 - 2 plays ahead of the stream/broadcast, so that can be kinda awkward but it's usually worth it.

sebagian besar yang berupa akun premium, license windows dll di ecom/marketplace memang curian, Lapor ke shopee juga ga akan ngefek, div humas polri juga kalo kamu bukan pihak yang dirugikan secara langsung akan sulit untuk digubris.

I'm 90 albums deep this year (I have a list and thoughts on each for those interested). My favorite Hip-hop albums have been:

• Bedwetter (AKA lil ugly mane)- Volume 1: Flick Your Tongue Against Your Teeth and Describe the Present.
  
• Quelle Chris - Being You Is Great, I Wish I Could Be You More Often
• Oddisee - The Iceberg
• Onry Ozzborn - c v p ii d
• Jonwayne - Rap Album Two

Outside of rap my favorites have been:

• Sampha - Process (alt RnB)
• Kairon; IRSE! - Ruination (prog rock)
• Max Richter - Three Worlds: Music From Woolf Works (modern classical)
• Jesca Hoop - Memories Are Now (singer songwriter)
• King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - Flyling Microtonal Bannana (psychedelic/garage rock)
• Laura Marling - Semper femina (singer-songwriter)
• Immolation - Atonement (Death Metal)
• Blanck Mass - World Eater (electro industrial)
• Pallbearer - Heartless (Doom Metal)

Interesting, looks like it's priced halfway between an individual Spotify Premium account (19.99 zł a month) and a Spotify Family account (29.99 zł a month.)

Looks like it's only available in Poland right now? https://www.spotify.com/pl/duo/

If you don't have an issue with Japanese lyrics, you might wanna check out Midori. They're pretty interesting. Not exactly a Grindcore/Jazz band, but they are Jazz Fusion/Hardcore Punk.

What you're describing sounds like what RYM simply calls Singer/Songwriter. You'll notice it has some pretty esoteric sub-genres but it doesn't have a parent genre (as in: Rock -> Progressive Rock)

So I'd say that it does deserve recognition as a genre and it's a style that can also appear in any genre. You usually see it paired with stuff like Folk Rock but like you said an R&B artist could put out something like that too.

The hate towards it makes sense if people feel like the market is over-saturated with it. Not all poppy 80s metal was bad, but it sure had a shitty reputation by the time grunge came around. Then the wave of lazy Vedder-soundalike bands came along till all the "The" bands came along around 2002 with the Post-Punk / Garage Rock Revival thing. Then that got stale. And so on.

> Jan-Willem van Engelen, zendermanager NPO Radio 2, laat weten dat het interessant is om te zien dat ook jongere stemmers massaal op de klassiekers stemden. ,,Voor hen zijn deze klassiekers en de jaarwisseling onafscheidelijk geworden.

De Top 2000 trekt dan ook jongeren aan die dit soort muziek tof vinden. Ik heb jarenlang gestemd, maar ik wist eigenlijk niet meer waarvoor ik het deed. Ik zag in ieder geval veel van m'n favorieten toch nooit terug, en liedjes waarvan ik het zonde zou vinden dat ze uit de lijst verdwijnen (van Small Faces bijvoorbeeld, of XTC) die verdwijnen toch wel. En worden vervangen door drie nieuwe nummers van Ed Sheeran (wat geen troep is ofzo, maar echt goed vind ik het ook niet).

Toen ik net rock muziek begon te ontdekken was ik nog gefascineerd door de lijst zelf. Ik houd ook echt wel van lijstjes en om erachter te komen wat 'het beste' is. Maar de Top 2000 is wat mij betreft helemaal niet zo'n goede lijst daarvoor. Geef mij maar Rateyourmusic!

En radio luisteren doe ik sowieso weinig, maar de Top 2000 a gogo kijk ik graag, echt een leuk programma, ook al is Matthijs van Nieuwkerk wat irritant.
En Bohemian Rhapsody op 1 is wel erg gezellig.

The Family Plan is the best - 6 Premium accounts for $15 a month.

6 accounts for $15 or $10 for a single premium account can really add up the savings if more than 1 family member has spotify.

At this point the Republicans not speaking out against Trump on any issue is for self-preservation. They are only interested in keeping their job, not standing up for Republican "values." I highly recommend listening to Preet Baharara's interview with long time Republican strategist Steve Schmidt who recently left the party. It is fascinating.

I am not seeing this on my Neon systems, using the deb file as opposed to a snap or flatpak.

I think he might be accidentally promoting a student bundle he signed up for. Spotify Premium isn't $5, Hulu and Showtime aren't included.

RYM is my main new music source for almost a decade (user for +11 years). Lists, charts, boards -- all great sources.

I understand what you are saying about the ratings and charts in general, that's why I encourage you to find some user-curated lists. For example, I recently found The Dark Side of Techno list, which introduced me to some really great tunes, which aren't highly rated and/or popular otherwise.

Charts are also good source, especially genre-specific. For example, if you want to know gothic country, you can get ten first albums and most of the time you won't be disappointed.

I tried using AllMusic, Last.fm, Discogs, but none of those services are even close to what I got out of RYM.

- RateYourMusic review

No.

I’m a huge fan of Demon Days myself, and that record has bestowed upon us major Gorillaz hits in Feel Good Inc. and Dare, but this is honestly fucked. Ys is not only a masterpiece, it is wholly unique. I would say revolutionary, but people still haven’t copied what she’s managed to do, so no revolution has happened. I know ratings sites can be lame to use as reference points, but on RateYourMusic, Ys has a 3.9! Anyone familiar with that site knows just how ridiculously difficult it is to get a rating that high. That’s landed her the #222 album of all time with that rating.

I dreamed you were skipping little ~~stones~~Ys across the surface of the water —

frowning at the angle where they were lost, and slipped under forever,

in a mud-cloud, mica-spangled, like the sky’d been breathing on a mirror.

RIP Competition. To Pimp A Butterfly better go far.

Hating on Disco has some troubling roots. I know it's just a card, but here is a good podcast on it.

You may feel that you are owed a refund morally and based on your understanding of the terms & conditions you agreed to. I won't speak to the issue morally, but the terms & conditions you agreed to pretty explicitly state that Spotify can advertise to you, even as a premium user;

>7 Rights you grant us >>In consideration for the rights granted to you under the Agreements, you grant us the right... (2) to provide advertising and other information to you

Paying for premium does not exempt you from being advertised to, plain and simple.

It's the cover art for a single from the band Liars. Don't know the story behind the picture, though.

Remember, it's only $4.99 for students.

hooray, after just over 7 months i've finally listened to every album on the essentials list

heres my listening diary if anybody is interested in seeing my really bad opinions i have

this was a super high quality list and i found a lot of really great stuff. strongly reccomend checking all these albums out for yourselves!

Brett McMurphy is live on the Gottlieb show, "I think Urban Meyer is going to be fired over this."

https://www.iheart.com/live/fox-sports-1360-4688/?autoplay=true&pname=14137&campid=header&cid=index.html

Yeah I've really tried to understand the overwhelming praise and I just don't get it... It's decent but when people are throwing their arms up claiming it as some sort of "masterpiece" for the trap genre and it's got one of the 5 highest ratings ever for a trap song on RateYourMusic.com I just can't help but wonder why.

Like, people have been rapping about drug abuse and depression in hip hop since The Message. This is nothing new. And nothing about the way Uzi describes it comes off as particularly insightful or impressive to me. When he isn't talking about drugs or his ex the rest of the lyrics in the song consist of predictable brags ("Stackin' my bands all the way to the top", "Clothes from overseas, got the racks and they all C-Notes", etc.) The beat is nice but nothing that blows me away compared to the stuff that guys like Metro, Mike Will, Southside, etc. have been doing lately. Hook is easily the best part of the song but that's just one component of the whole piece, and I still don't think it's so godly that it deserves being praised to the high heavens like it has been. Also I've admittedly never liked Uzi's voice but I understand that's not a legitimate reason to dog on the guy so I won't count that against him.

I just fail to see how it's anything more than a catchy pop rap tune with slightly darker than usual subject matter for a song that's on the radio. I feel like I would need to be seriously invested in Uzi's personal life and relationships to be fully in love with it, and I'd honestly be very surprised if he's any sort of significant force in hip hop even 5 years down the line. Idk, maybe I'm wrong.

They're injections of something other than harvested fat to make your butt bigger. It's illegal. One woman was arrested for putting fix a flat into people. A rapper Cardi B admits to getting illegal injections in someone's basement and feeling like she was about to die here. I know Bri got a legit BBL but she might have supplemented with shots.

Cody is awesome. I definitely recommend all of the videos on this channel and his election podcast called Worst Year Ever along with Robert Evans and Katy Stoll. He also frequently appears on Robert Evans' Behind the Bastards podcast.

It's not in any official review but he has mentioned it as a 'classic' in his "I hate hiphop?" video, and on his rateyourmusic page he ranked it as 10/10.

In a world where we have 1 hour EPs and 22 minute albums, what do words even mean anymore

What's everyone's top 10 albums of the year so far? There's been a lot of releases in the past two weeks that could shake up the rankings. Here's mine:

1. David Bowie - ★ [Blackstar]

2. Xiu Xiu - Plays the Music of Twin Peaks

3. Anna Meredith - Varmints

4. Deakin - Sleep Cycle

5. Tim Hecker - Love Streams

6. Weezer - Weezer [White Album]

7. Deftones - Gore

8. 大森靖子 [Seiko Oomori] - Tokyo Black Hole

9. Teen Suicide - It's the Big Joyous Celebration, Let's Stir the Honeypot

10. Matt Elliott - The Calm Before

The Field - Follower is a honorable mention, but The Calm Before barely beats it out.

my rym for anyone that cares, i have a constantly updated 2016 list there

I've heard that as well, and we know Kirk Douglas has been accused of at least one crime, one that is relevant to the discussion if it's true.

If you're curious what other artists Pitchfork has panned, I made an extensive list on RateYourMusic. It has every album they've ever given a 3.0 or lower with quotes and links: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/camerabob1/pitchforks-least-favorite-albums-3_0-and-below/

• The Beach Boys when Brian Wilson has creative control
• "The Beach Boys" when Mike Love has creative control

Not surprising at all

This WDVE radio bit, "Pittsburgh GPS" from Tom Musial, features this intersection prominently as "that crazy intersection up there by that Arby's, where you're going up a hill, under a railroad track, and you're making a left and a right at the same time." The directions in the bit also include landmarks that "used to be" there.

Most recently... I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside and especially Solace by Earl Sweatshirt. His music is achingly sad but in a hollow sort of way and it took next to no effort to get extremely invested.

I believe the problem is simply due to you trying to share one account. What Spotify wants someone to do in your situation is have two separate accounts. And if you want to get the best deal, setup Premium Family.

Compare Kanye's discography to Eminem's. Almost all of Kanye's albums are ranked much higher than almost all of Eminem's. The last album from Em that was even close to one of Ye's albums was from 2002, and even that album would still be tied for the worst among Ye's solo albums. The majority of Em's albums are ranked below a 3 while Kanye has none that are close. Not to mention the staggeringly bad 1.28/5 that Revival got.

So yeah, obviously music is subjective and shit. But when you're trying to make the case that Eminem is objectively the better artist, it's pretty hard not to laugh.

R&B is allowed here. It doesn't have to be "in the realm of hip hop"

Instead of trying to be an arbiter of genres I usually just go with RYM because they're fairly accurate.

Tracklist

01 - Possibly Intro: I Switched My Robot Off

04 - Saturnz Barz (Feat. Popcaan)

08 - Charger (Feat. Grace Jones)

18 - ~~Possibly Interlude: Elevator Going Up (HM music video is Benjamin in an elevator)~~ Actually it's not

19 - Hallelujah Money (Feat. Benjamin Clementine)

Edit: true tracklist

If you're a student, Spotify is 5$. I don't know if you are, but I'm letting you know because its a steal.

He runs a syndicated radio talk show out of Nashville. They mostly talk sports but also talk about pop culture stuff like game of thrones and politics. They also have this segment called "animal thunder dome" where they report on animal attacks every morning. Easily the best radio show in the country.

Tits is coming in at 8am, possibly 8:30 EST. In last night's video he said he'll show the Roland shitting video to Weaze live on the air. I'm not a fan of Roland, but he should sue the fuck out of Opie. The fact that he keeps scat videos on his phone is just... wow

I ranked every song that has ever topped Billboard's Alternative/Modern Rock Songs chart and now I need a nap.

He also said

Here the album page for ABC on rateyourmusic: link. It has over a thousand ratings, 7 reviews, is #19 overall for the year, and #5 among hip hop albums. That's the only place where I've seen the album have any traction or discussed at length (the comments box has a lot of comments).

Ehh I get that but at the same time they're obviously catering to the le wrong generation crowd and have continually said that they were not inspired by led zeppelin. I think that's probably the worst part for me, like nobody cares that you want to be led zeppelin, but just fucking acknowledge that you are inspired by them.

We've actually done some tests on the algorithm in the past.

In reality, the algorithm is pretty good. The issue is how it responds to user input. Pretty much anything other than forward skipping will reset the shuffle so that you can hear the exact same songs that you just heard. Clicking onto another playlist, skipping backwards, or clicking any track on a currently playing playlist will all cause the shuffle to be reset. This should not be the case, and I suspect it's why there is such a discrepancy between Spotify's shuffle tests and user tests.

I would suggest that users write in their feedback on this issue and ask for the shuffle seed to remain persistent throughout these activities.

At the bottom: "create an account using your e-mail address". I think that should work for you, it's tiny text and isn't outlined at all, but it should be the way.

someone put my new album on rateyourmusic , which is kind of cool? but they gave it a 2.5 which is not that cool? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

e: hurray! another rating brought it up to 3!

Steve Schmidt, one of McCain's campaign managers, talked about how they picked Palin with almost no vetting, a decision he claims he wasn't part of. In a recent interview with Preet Bahara, he mentions having a realization moment, something like "Holy shit she doesn't know anything about anything!"

dat student discount tho. I was convinced after using it with ads for a few weeks and then found out about the student discount I got that shit immediately. delicious 320kbps.

I found u/MerovingianDynasty's RateYourMusic profile the other day. The plethora of 0.5 star ratings on Eminem and Kanye projects along with the 4 star rating for Everything Is Love pretty much confirms it's him.

Funk is a subgenre of R&B, so that's why you might be running into difficulty classifying or delineating individual tracks. Take a look at this chart. Maybe it can help you out.

Controversial opinion: Zaireeka by the Flaming Lips. Now this is obviously the perfect definition of an album that bridged the gap between two very different musical styles (and periods) for an artist, however the question is whether it is a great album.

When it was originally released it was widely talked about, not for its music, but instead the format it took, in which songs were separated into 4 CDs, which had to be timed and played at the same time. Obviously, this pissed of certain people (Pitchfork originally gave it a 0.0 given the format: https://rateyourmusic.com/list/VelvetDarkness/every_album_to_be_rated_0_0_by_pitchfork_media/).

What was missed however was how great the music was. This is the perfect transition album between The Clouds Taste Metallic and The Soft Bulletin, one being an goofy alternative rock album, while the later is an operatic indie pop masterpiece. In between those, Zaireeka was this odd experimental album, not just in format, but in the actual music made. The songs have prolonged, non-rock instrumentals, in which Steve Drodz and Michael Ivans take a bigger role in the absence of Ronald Jones. No longer are they making off kilter rock songs, but instead working more towards soundscapes, and exploring other genres.

The goofiness, experimentations, and edge of The Clouds Taste Metallic can still be seen Zaireeka, while some of the more thoughtful elements, and the complete change in style starts taking its roots here. They are well worth a listen, and are easily as good (if not better) than the 7 Skies H3 work that came from the 24 hour song. I would argue that he album is well worth a listen in its combined format, and is more than just an experimental music format, but is a great set of music on its own.

With that in mind, if you have 3 other friends bring their laptops (or phones with speakers) doing the experiment is tremendous experience, and makes for a great group experience

My Top 100 albums of the year is now fully complete on RYM!

Will make it the full top 300 in the coming days/weeks, but the top 100 is the REALLY great stuff I've heard so far. Will continue to update as the year concludes.

I hope you've all been doing spectacularly! :)

You can listen to the sub 20 minute podcast about it: Ny Times The Daily - A Secret In the Navy Seals

https://www.iheart.com/podcast/326-the-28076606/episode/a-secret-in-the-navy-seals-30877179/

If the NYT is too liberal, maybe the navy times will be more trustworthy:

>Chief Special Warfare Operator Edward “Eddie” Gallagher not only stabbed to death a teenage wounded Islamic State prisoner of war during a 2017 deployment to Iraq, according to an officer in his chain of command, but the SEAL also called in “false target coordinates to engage a mosque," tried to push his platoon into pointless and potentially catastrophic firefights with insurgents and became so mentally unstable that he should’ve been relieved from duty but wasn’t.

-

>It was then, he said, that Gallagher announced he had killed the wounded detainee “in self-defense,” according to the proffer.

>The troop chief told prosecutors he was puzzled by Gallagher’s statement. He said SEALs do not consider a knife to be a “reasonable or advisable method of killing, given all the other weapons, including grappling and hand-to-hand combat that SEALs are trained to employ.”

>“Knife kills are virtually unheard of in the SEAL community,” the proffer states.
