according to the Mystery of the Carefully Crafted Hoax, when Paul Bonacci was 13, he met a teacher from another school named Mike Heaverin.
"He got me interested in history. He took me with him, along with several other students to a town where he filmed us in Nazi uniforms and also in sexual activities. He liked boys and was nice to me."
"Michael Heaverin was a Papillion Jr. High social studies teacher who was convicted of "contributing to the delinquency of a minor" in what was known as the 'Sarpy County Case'."
this doesn't go anywhere, just throwing it out there
it would be fucked up, I'm just saying, if there were any links between Nazis, stay-behind networks, SAC, and pornography

how about one last thread for the road? maybe the second to last?
I’m a fan of Cuba and the Cuban people. Politically, I support ending the embargo and the repeal of the Helms-Burton act. I think Fidel Castro and Che Guevara were some of the most interesting figures of the 20th century. There is much to admire in the Cuban project.
I’m always a fan of subterranean histories, especially when they intersect with insurrectionary and/or revolutionary history. What’s the parapolitics take on Cuba? What still remains to be studied with the Cuban Revolution?
a thread: a couple days ago, Daniela Klette, age 65, of the Red Army Faction’s third generation was arrested.
a lot of people are saying Bellingcat and/or podcasters found her. it's not entirely clear which, but it looks like some German podcasters for like a Most Wanted type podcast found her using AI tools, and then either they or a Bellingcat guy sent it to the cops
via the NYT article, the Bellingcat guy said “Somebody like me, who does not speak German, who does not know much beyond the basic background of Daniela Klette — Why was I able to find such a lead in like literally 30 minutes?”
for various reasons I’m obsessed with the baleada. it’s become one of my all-time favorite dishes.
the baleada is in some ways THE national dish of Honduras. what’s known for sure is that the baleada was invented in La Ceiba on the beautiful northern coast of Honduras. some claim that it was originally a Mayan dish (which I'll discuss later)
