NEW LEAD fresh off the barbie.
anon at half-chan has been digging into a youth writing program called '826dc.' that is having their annual fundraiser at Comet soon. "Tutors kids, weird symbolism on its site, members of the board tied to Clintons and orphanages. It has chapters in SF, LA, DC, and a few other places."
so all the usual suspicious activies/characters we used to seeing. what struck me odd was that the whole organization is peculiarly tied together with a magic shop called Tivoli's Astounding Magic Supply Co. appears like the two companies are owned by the same group, as Tivoli's is predominately displayed at the bottom of each page on 826dc's site.
check out some of the weird shit for sale there:

Showmanship 'performance enhancer'...with no ingredients (or warnings/usage) listed.

Stage Fright Antidote 'performance enhancer'...again, with no ingredients (or warnings/usage) listed.

Pizzazz 'performance enhancer...*does not include pizza' wtf?

an obligatory Ouija board...

related: if you dukdukgo '826dc alefantis,' it takes you to the Penn-Faulkner Organization. Ctl-F 'alefantis' and you'll see that jimmy comet and the esteemed honorable chuck e. cheese, er i mean schumer, as well as some other familiar faces, are on the Benefit Committee.

happy digging!
