This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

It’s our six-month anniversary! And we’re celebrating with whistleblowers – because everyone loves a whistleblower! From Chelsea Manning to John Kiriakou, we’re breaking down the lunacy of charging them as spies, and giving you the tools to help support those who speak out against injustices in our government. Next up, let’s take a trip to England, where the world’s most disappointing theme park has just opened. Believe me, you’ll wanna see it! Then Silent Bill gives us a rundown of the Secret Society of Super Villain Artists – doing good and having fun while doing it. And finally, here’s how you can join the fight to stop fighting and let diplomacy prevail over war. #NoWarWithIran. But first, we gotta go to the emergency room.
