What do you all think of the costumes at the Met-gala?

shrug
I've seen better at anime conventions with cos-play

Yes, it did seem like cos-play a little bit didn't it?

84 year old former actress had a rent controlled apartment in NYC for $28 a month.

Her landlord was only able to legally raise her rent $1.98

She was pretty eccentric in her old age. Never had hot water installed. Only had 1 lightbulb. No bath. No shower.

Not that she couldn't have had it done. She just didn't do it.

Julian Assange is an Australian who is currently holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London. What on earth does the First Amendment have to do with him?

Julian Assange is an Australian who is currently holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy in London. What on earth does the First Amendment have to do with him?

Point taken. Julian has been trying to expose the scurrilous behavior of our government for 6 years [?]. Sweden dropped any charges against him, as the charges they had made up for him were phony in the first place. [having sex with a prostitute w/o a condom].

The Ecuadoran embassy in UK has censored him and keeping him from communicating at all. [free speech] He has exposed to much Hillary.

The reason he hasn't come out of the embassy in years is because the UK police will snatch him up and extradite him to America, who hadn't any charges against him.

Thank Sarah for defending America and our rights,

I heard this is because he literally stinks
They are sick of smelling him
He doesn't shower and after eating, wipes his hands on the clothes he wears
The guy is gross and disgusting

"in 2012, Jérémie Zimmermann, a friend and former colleague of Assange, said friends often have to force him to bathe.
“Unless the people around him force him into the shower, he might not change his clothes for days,” Zimmermann said."

Also the timing of Ecuador cutting him off was pretty close to a big arms deal between them and the US? I heard that about his body odor as well.

UK has said they will snatch him up if he steps outside the embassy, but he still isn't charged with anything. The US has no problem terminating people unfavorable to current Politics. Between the UK, and the US, they should let Ecuador release him to go to Ecuador seeing as how he is now a citizen.

I really don't get this
If he was in his own basement alone, go ahead and stink
But
He is their guest.
I'm staying at a friends, I am on my best behavior, polite and CLEAN
To stink as a guest is to me is somebody that does not give a sh*t about anybody
Its incredibly selfish and really bows my mind
They are helping him and this is how he appreciates help by stinking the place up
Maybe he should start acting like a considerate human being instead of some stinking zoo animal that doesn't know better

I believe in the beginning Ecuador was all about human rights and didn't want Assange extradited to America for not wearing a condom in Sweden, by the UK that had no dog in the fight?

Chances are if Assange leaves the embassy, he won't be invited back.
