  • RIP Capt Tom, and bugger off Pudsy

    RIP Capt Tom, and bugger off Pudsy

    Rip Capt Tom, a man whose actions to raise money for charity, while the government DELIBERATELY (imho) sought out the worst value for money it could find for healthcare provision so, I assume, it could fill the pockets of certain family members and old pals under the falsehood of expediency (it wasn’t), was indicative of… Continue reading

  • Correct, still an asshole maybe

    Correct, still an asshole maybe

    I’m talking about Elon Musk, maybe he’ll sue me over this piece, though that would be pointless as I have nothing. He is correct in what he is doing however, letting his X platform host whatever from whomever. Before you react, let’s examine why I think this… I’m not a journalist, but I write. I’m… Continue reading

  • Ruled by minorities

    Ruled by minorities

    Majorities are almost always ruled by minorities, for example… You work in an office with 9 other people, you swear, you laugh, you fart, you discuss your sex lives, you tease co-workers, you’re irreverent, you cover for each other etc.. introduce a single individual, a religious person, or a prude, or somebody who is highly… Continue reading

  • 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

  • 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

  • Stop Celebrating!

    Stop Celebrating!

    People would rather be told a lie by those they like than a truth by those they do not. This is our new power, in modernity, granted to us by the mechanisms of social media, to make us feel like we are significant and the things we feel are valid. Used to be that if… Continue reading
