Philosophy, life and painful things. Let's go on a journey…….


Life

  • The Apprentice

    The Apprentice

    Y’all need to watch the apprentice, it’s this show about a bunch of overconfident dim-witted unlikeable souls with soft hands that have likely never been bothered by real work, being condescended to by an unfunny bearded git that has two lackies and a room of potential butt-lickers baying to career-laugh at every word of his Continue reading

  • A Branding strategy

    A Branding strategy

    The question for me is this, why is every threat to the establishment seemingly met with the same strategy, one might call it a tactic? The exposure of an alleged sexual impropriety on the part of a male who is in the spotlight… I’m going to talk about Russel Brand, but this question, this phenomenon, Continue reading

  • Get into the swing

    Get into the swing

    A recent conversation sparked an interest in me to think about our sexual freedoms and how we voluntarily give up what some might term the “dark curiosity” within us, what I would rather apply the term “the real us” to, in an effort to be stable, rather than fulfilled. Now I don’t mean that each Continue reading

  • Arsehole persuasion

    Arsehole persuasion

    Long ago poverty was solved in principle by using modern technological innovations to replace hard work and provide for all. War was made unnecessary since these conflicts are always an expression of economic competition between countries trying to control resources, and we no longer needed that because of global trade where any country could sell Continue reading

  • We should think ourselves rather silly

    We should think ourselves rather silly

    Imagine having a monarchy in 2024, how utterly ridiculous would that be? But we do, we have a person who in April 2023 became the King of England, ascended to the throne to rule the country as a figurehead of government, that is, according to the Hobbesian argument (leviathan) and many other arguments before his, Continue reading

  • Banter training

    Banter training

    “Banter training” my pal tells me, that’s what’s going on in his workplace now. Holy fudge what an notion. Let’s destroy it.. Right, firstly we can easily dismiss the idea that ‘banter’ is something that can be defined. That a person can draw a line in the sand that says “this is banter up to Continue reading

  • What crisis?

    What crisis?

    The successive Tory governments of the last 14 years are the sole reason the NHS is in crisis. People are living longer yes, but healthier safer lives, the demand is not the issue. The destruction of this incredible socialist institution is deliberate, it is no coincidence that these former corporate capitalists, who have business relationships Continue reading

  • The worst of us

    The worst of us

    We have politicians, and unfortunately they are the worst of us, often the worst people they could be. Just take a sample of them and ask yourself if they possess the courage of their convictions, if they serve their own interests or others. Ask if you could do better, think better, act more morally, if Continue reading

  • The snowflake cracks

    The snowflake cracks

    I once thought that I was alone in my difficulties, they are not many but they often debilitate me. Then I watched what is maybe the best TV show ever made IMHO, Afterlife, that show with Ricky Gervais. I have some issue it’s true, I’m not so good socially and I am a slave to Continue reading

  • I nothing

    I nothing

    I feel the same way about her now that she’s no longer alive as I did when she lived, nothing. Why does that sound cruel, it’s the truth, I don’t give a hoot about her or her current status. The lady was a media glutton, a seeker of external validation. A self, built in a Continue reading
