This 1975 NASA documentary narrated by the great Orson Welles delves into the possibilities of extraterrestrial life as gleaned from the results of planetary probes, interstellar discoveries and findings about the nature of life itself.

I just watched “True Detective” the other night on HBO—shouts to Matthew McConaughey you looked stunning—and it scared the shit out of me. Not that I have any idea what’s even happening in the show but obviously part of it is about some Bible Belt satan worshippers, or something. So, life has been pretty dark as I’ve been thinking a lot about the paranormal.

Anyway, when I watched Meg Myers’ video for “Desire,” it was haunting and pretty relatable—you want someone who’s not there; you desire someone who’s not there, you get the point. But, because I’ve been scaring the shit out of myself by watching paranormal docs, I immediately thought, “out of this world ghost sex.”

Whatever the intention, the video is simply stunning and Meg’s voice embodies so many feelings that it’s clear there’s a lot going on behind this record. “I want to skin you with my tongue/I’m gonna kill you/I’m gonna lay you in the ground,” is just a preview of some of Meg’s lyrics on “Desire.” Watch the video above, and pre-order her upcoming EP Make A Shadow on iTunes right now.

This spring the U.S. will be sending troops to Ukraine to help train four companies of the Ukrainian National Guard. Heading up that mission will be the head of US Army Europe Lt. Gen Ben Hodges.

The story of the national guard in Ukraine is an interesting one. Back in 2000 it was disbanded altogether only to be revived after the color revolution crafted by our State Department. They’ve been steadily trying to recruit members since May and a new recruiting drive hopes to net another 10,000 for service by time the training begins.

The question is, will U.S. troops be asked to train Ukrainian Nazis of the Azov Battalion during this process? That would be some turn around from WWII wouldn’t it? I wonder if those troops have any family members who fought the Nazis during WWII. And now they might be tasked with training new ones?

Will the wonders of President Peace Prize never cease?

A number of the ultra-right militia groups were courted for membership in the National Guard at first but some decided they didn’t wish to give up their weapons. VICE did a story on the start-up of the National Guard back in March of 2014.

One of the most brutal and fascist of these militias was called the Azov militia. They are complete Nazis, not even a question about that. They don’t like Jews or commies and think the separatists should all be killed or captured and then killed. Many respect what Hitler did. Reports of their brutality toward civilians are plentiful.

The Azov militia has since been transformed. They are now the Azov Battalion and are the official Ukraine Special Forces regiment which reports officially to Ministry of Internal Affairs which would kind of make them like the Gestapo.

The head of this battalion is Andriy Biletsky who just also happens to be head of both the S.N.A. (Social-National Assembly) and the ‘Patroits of Ukraine” , the S.N.A.’s paramilitary wing. They are unapologetic fascist organizations.

wikipedia describes “Patriot of Ukraine” (but with wikipedia’s footnotes removed) — a Ukrainian nationalist organization with racist and neo-Nazi political beliefs. It constitutes a paramilitary wing of the Social-National Assembly of Ukraine (S.N.A.), an assemblage of neo-Nazi organizations and groups founded in 2008 that share the social-national ideology and agree upon building a social-national state in Ukraine. Both the “Patriot of Ukraine” and the S.N.A. engage in political violence against minorities and their political opponents. The leader of the “Patriot of Ukraine” and of the Social-National Assembly is Andriy Biletsky…

… In a youtube video (with English subtitles), Biletsky describes how he tortures residents in the separatist region (called “Donbass”), in order to extract confessions and other information from them; so, Obama’s conflict with the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee over the release of their torture-report might have relevance to his policies in Ukraine, especially since Blackwater-Academi is a U.S.-based mercenary firm, which Obama hires.

Biletsky was the commander who just lost the Donetsk airport after blowing it to pieces.

Azov has a slick marketing campaign and has drawn in mercenaries from all over the world. Fascist racist mercs, like those Takfaris and Salafists we train from Saudi Arabia.

It is unclear at this time whether or not the Aziv Battalion will be one of those groups our troops will have to train over in Ukraine this spring. I will keep looking into it.

In the meantime, here’s a little reminder: a video put together showing how the two largest and most influential pro-Israel lobbying groups helped keep our congress from stipulating our tax dollars and soldiers wont be used to help Nazis in Ukraine.

It’s worth remembering at this point. What’s also worth remembering is how Israel was just accused of operating what amounts to work camps with slave labor.
