Thanks Hucks, I am both being deliberately irritating about this and not. Ulitmately I don't even have much skin in the game as parliamentary politics is not my thing. Basically this isn't an exciting victory for Starmer. Thus far, he does not seem to have ignited the electorate in the way that...

Can this really be true? I thought the great british public was crying out for the sensible centrism of Sir Kieieieier and his definitely not socialist policies? What say the electoral experts and political pragmatists of Dissesnsus?

Anything is possible. Everyone has had serious experiences. I’m not sure “serious” is a good identity to aspire to.

I can’t find it now, but there was huge support for going back to the office amongst retired people in one survey. Not for them, of course.

Here comes the Telegraph backlash though. Interesting because it also fits with the existential crisis of post-industrial masculinity. A new front in the culture war…

I walk for an hour every morning in the time I used to commute. 8-9. I go a bit mad otherwise. There are some fun related walk activities like watching the seasons change, or giving people directions, or scraping off covid denial stickers too.

Fond memories of seeing Vaginal Explosion supporting Radical Dance Faction at the Acton Arms in the 1990s.

At our place when we advertise for jobs we can now choose from people all over the UK instead of near London. Potentially all over the world barring time differences I guess. A few people who we’ve interviewed have said that they were quite happy with their current job until they were told to...

And a London one in July too. https://www.cafeoto.co.uk/events/a-tribute-to-peter-rehberg/

Losing my shit in the kitchen when Fad Gadget came on. o_Oo_Oo_Oo_Oo_O

My parents ask me if I’m back in the office yet each time I speak to them. I suspect in my Dad’s case it’s so he can then ask me if the trains are alright. I keep telling them it’s not going to happen again but I think they just can’t get their heads around it after a lifetime of “going to...

At least I don't think so. I guess I wouldn't like it if they were aimed at defrauding people or similar.

I certainly don't mind if people post fictional events. :)

Los Dententos Do Rap were a Brazilian hip hop crew of inmates circa 1999 when I was out there.
