Yeah. Ultimately everything is some sort of synthesis that may or may not be successful/interesting/produce something new and I think this is quite striking because the parts are so discrete. It's deceptively simple, like a great piece of engineering. Sorry, quite hungover - having...

Surely Josephine The Singer deserves a mention here. Personal favourite and all that as well.

Ah shit, sorry, I thought this was the Post A Video Of Yourself thread! :o:o:o

Ah yeah, I hadn't thought of that! Still don't totally get this connection between paranoia and Jew-hating though. I almost did write something about Assange's own operating myth - how he sees himself, but I didn't want to get too tangential. Related to that is the question of the pressure he...

Just clarify/attempt to wriggle out of what I said upthread (:eek:) i.e. the thing about flawed heroes - I meant that this kind of binary good guys/bad guys world always strikes me as a bit weird, although I must admit I want Assange to be whiter than white myself (no racial undertone to that)...

Meant to be Prince on keys, unbelievably adept for 19. But it's very slick fusion (jazz-rock) funk. Like an old skool Madhouse. Minneapolis 94 East is better. Interesting though. Prince is a motherfucker!

Flawed heroes are OK by me. It's kind of the way that shit works.

Southwold is a couple of hours drive from Cambridge so not sure how do-able that is as a daytrip. Fuckit, lemme check. Yeah, Liverpool St->Ipswich->Brampton->bus. Bit much perhaps but the rail travel is about 3hrs. Just got a really pretty seafront/not that busy/these great places where they...

Woah, stay focused man. I watched that shit doc about J Dilla the other day & his beatmaking obsession reminded me of you. Do you want to be the next Dilla or do you want to see Frinton? Keep your eyes on the prize bro. That said, Southwold is lovely.

On the contrary Derek, posting on the Cambridge thread at this time is the very spirit of disingenuousness. ;)

Yup, that's the thing I think. Huge transient population, University students cloistered in gown-land, the Uni generally having a huge gravitational pull on the place culturally & the fact that they own tons of land + high rents = dearth of scene. Also for various reasons the venues we have had...

Warning to other Dissensian foodies: Nochexxx will eat ANYTHING, I swear. He'd eat Mr. Tea's Mum, for example. Less exotic than Durian, but is anyone else a fan of the morula? Unpleasantly phlegm-like flesh, but deliciously distinctive flavour. Idea for a Dissensus all-stars band name: Durian...

I've been feeling bad for not wasting enough time on Dissensus, so I've dropped by on a random thread to entirely concur with Tea's comedy ranking system.

Reality TV being a lot fucking stranger than fiction there. Well eerie mon! :eek:

Reuters on the rape-ish facts.

This Russia stuff makes me fear for Assange.

Uh, and a soup thread.

Yeah, I want this thread!

Yeah I haven't done this for a mad long time but I remember moving into a new place a mad long time ago and listening to the album this song is from on repeat:
