I’ve noticed a lot of friends take pride in being friends with their teenage – or younger – kids. Well, I’m here to tell you: you gotta cut that shit out! How can you discipline your kids if they are your friends? You can’t. And the kids realise that. I know this is seen asContinue reading “Don’t Be Friends With Your Kids”

My Atheist Agony
I was an atheist from an early age. I can’t remember the exact age when I decided there was no God but it was certainly before I started secondary school. (I remember, specifically that I was atheist before secondary school because I briefly reverted from atheism when my school place was in doubt. The storyContinue reading “My Atheist Agony”
The Left Hate Diversity
They hate diversity of opinion. That is why they are working so hard to control all speech. They are doing this by labelling all speech they don’t like as ‘hate speech’. This is why quotas are introduced to ensure that BAMES and women are suitably represented in showbiz and writing awards. They hate diversity ofContinue reading “The Left Hate Diversity”
It’s City vs Country Now
The culture wars we are currently having to tolerate so as not to be a called a bigot or a fascist or a racist or a sexist or an Islamophobe have 4 categories that separate the woke from the fast asleep: 1) Left vs Right where the Right is trying – and largely failing –Continue reading “It’s City vs Country Now”
Antifa. When Will They Realise…
Antifa. When will they realise that they’re the baddies. It’s not their innocent victims. It’s them and only them. In this piece I will collate pieces about Antifa. However, first I want to give my own take on Antifa. Atticus says: If I ever suspect I may have behaved badly, I put myself to theContinue reading “Antifa. When Will They Realise…”
For The Lesser Good
We used to make decisions based on ‘the greater good’. The idea behind this approach is an acceptance that you are not going to be able to please all the people, all the time. As such, you make decisions that will benefit the greater majority of people. It’s an approach that parallels the cost benefitContinue reading “For The Lesser Good”
No Joined Up Thinking in The Environmental Movement
There is a lot of inconsistency in the environmental movement. Inconsistency where the solution to an environmental issue has an even larger environmental impact. Allow me to relate an example… I went to a local festival over the summer. I went with my wife and we met our friends there. It’s an annual event, organisedContinue reading “No Joined Up Thinking in The Environmental Movement”
‘Blockers’ – My Rejected IMDB Review
Another rejected review. Unlike my review of “The Great Global Warming Swindle” (refer to recent blog that contains my review of this documentary), I think I know the offending item that lead to the rejection of this review. I suspect it was the term “anal sex”. If correct, I am surprised: sex related stigma isContinue reading “‘Blockers’ – My Rejected IMDB Review”
I’m racist. And so are you.
As we all know, Social Justice Warriors (SJWs) accuse everyone that doesn’t share their ill-considered opinions to be racists. Want to leave the EU? That means you’re racist. Climatesceptic? Only a racist would think that. You voted for a centre-right government? Raaaaaacist! ‘Racist’ is the go-to insult for the average Leftist. It is often usedContinue reading “I’m racist. And so are you.”
