I met an horrific person
A car crashes and people die, the witnesses tell people how they felt about what happened, what a surprise it was to them that it happened, how they were ill prepared for it happening, how it has potentially impacted the thing that they were on their way to do. It’s almost impossible for them to Continue reading

Democracy avoidance
Governments tend to democratise only that which they can win, this is not a quote, it is my opinion from observations I have made, I will explain what I mean by way of a few examples for you to consider… Wind farms are voted on – a wind farm location can be blocked by local Continue reading

10 years hence person
We are watching now, what some comedians and commentators are saying on TV, and we are entertained for the most part. The statements they are making cause no ire at all, they’re just banter, nobody is upset by them… but we have come to realise that in 10 years time we may see someone, from Continue reading

Strategy for a post-truth existence
I’ve got to admit to struggling to get my head around the now. I thought maybe it was a generational thing, and there may be some truth to that yes. However, if I am honest, if we are still allowed to be honest, I think the issue might be that I do not have a Continue reading

Constants end
I’m not going to tell you the details, but it’s been a month, and at the point of writing this it’s still that month… There are things in life that seem like they’ve always been there, and then they’re not, and it’s a shock when they go. My neighbour has this year experienced her husband’s Continue reading

You didn’t ask!
My TikTok feed is full of white men marching the streets of London calling for an end to immigration. These guys have a cause, not one I believe in, but one they feel strongly about. It made me wonder if they had had any children? I assumed that most of them must have, these are Continue reading
