A Whole Bunch of Important Stuff

I was going to open this post with a statement that I don’t tend to get too political on this site, but then I laughed internally, for I actually do get quite political on this site. I guess, perhaps, the framework of how and why is a little different this time. I’ll be cross-posting this […]

Nearly Showtime

I am strangely excited about the looming showdown between the forces of ignorance (aka Boris Johnson and his snobbish, elitist cabinet) and the combination of rebel Tories, Labour, Lib Dems and everyone else who believes BoJo wants a no-deal Brexit to happen (despite his own government’s warnings about why this would be awful). It’s strange […]

One Month

One month. One is all it’s taken for Boris Johnson to lose the Conservative Party’s majority in Parliament, see a surge in rebellious MPs within his own party, massive, nationwide protests to his plans to prorogue Parliament, and watch his bizarre Brexit plans be wrenched out of his control. This would be hilarious, if the […]

Boris Binned

Well, not quite binned, but today’s news, that the defection of a Tory MP to the Liberal Democrats has cost the Conservatives their majority, will make life even more difficult for the increasingly flustered and berated Prime Minister. From massive protests on various city streets, to members of his own party rebelling against his ill-fated […]

Judgement Day

I hadn’t twigged the significance of yesterday’s date. August 29th, 1997, is the date Skynet, the advanced computer in the Terminator series, becomes self-aware and triggers a nuclear apocalypse. Props to Dayton Ward for his post that reminded me of this important date! Also, probs to Lolsy’s Library for pointing out that today is the […]

Boris’ Brexit Bother

I’ve ranted about Brexit before – this looming, ever-on-the-horizon disaster that according to the government itself, via Operation Yellowhammer, will cause us various problems – and these are only the problems the government, our inept, incompetent government with its dangerous leader, Boris Johnson – have been able to foresee. The scariest thing to come out […]

Games and Guns and Fallacies

Recently I revisited an old video game from my childhood. That game? Doom. For those of you unfamiliar with it, Doom sees you make your way through level after level of demon-filled landscapes, slaughtering them, lest they slaughter you. It’s a bloodthirsty, gory, intense ride, and one that first discovered when I was about 12. […]

Boris Johnson…

… is the new Prime Minister of my country, and I am ashamed. We did not actually vote for him (less than one percent of the country decided this bumbling, nasty piece of work should lead us), yet he is now responsible for guiding us through Brexit. Johnson has not shied from a no-deal scenario, […]

Talking Past Each Other

I’m quite happy to engage in robust conversation with various people across various fields. I’ve done so with MGTOWs and MRAs. I’ve done so with gatekeeping Star Trek fans. I’ve done so with people of various conservative religious beliefs. Gun control, sports, science, you name it, I’ve gotten stuck in. In the course of doing […]
