What’s the best life advice you got or can give? Let’s compile a list:

The Jackal was a movie from 1997 that followed the villain (Bruce Willis) as much as the hero (Richard Gere).

While the movie had some flaws, especially Gere’s fake accent, I do really like that concept of following a villain as much as a hero. It can work well in a lot of contexts. Has to be the right type of villain though. Complex and interesting, or entertaining.

Arcane did that too, which is part of why I liked it.

Some friends and I have set up a choir (chorale21.org.uk). It’s going nicely and now I’ve added a QR code for Bitcoin donations. A committee member has raised a concern that “people ...might be interested in utilizing the bit coin aspect to take advantage of the choir”. It’s going to be a long slow journey…

“Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, and small minds discuss people” is a quote by Eleanor Roosevelt, the former First Lady of the United States.

Something I posted on Twitter but I would be interested in perspectives here. I am not trying to be dramatic or undermine the true horrors of socialism, it is just how it feels.

"When calling the current government socialist, there are those who will laugh at the idea this because it doesn't meet the true definition of socialism, you know, whereby the state owns industry, blah blah blah.

This is why I call it the "New Face of Socialism" as the outcome is the same. If you are a business owner in the UK you are essentially a slave to government as high taxes and massive regulation reflect the same principles of socialism-wealth redistribution and centralised control of society.

If it helps, we can call it"Bureaucratic Socialism" or "Backdoor Socialism"...whatever you need to justify you voted in a bunch of commies. Life is so much easier if you admit you fucked up.

This is a hill I will die on...reject them all!"

Freeze peach, it's a smoothie ingredient

Forgot I had a smoothie in my bag through security check in Manchester airport. Serious faces, questioning, sample taken from smoothie and tested.

UK doesn’t look kindly on free speech and smoothies these days. 🤷‍♂️
