I see a number of posts have gone missing. Not surprising.
Missing from where?
Apologies, I'm thinking of another site.
Thought this was quite a good article about the Joe Rogan thing:
https://greenwald.substack.com/p/the-pressure-campaign-on-spotify
Rogan does have some good shows. I listen to him once in a while. But, I only really listen to his sports coverage.
It wasn't.
Don't get me started on Rogan. I used to be a big fan now I can't listen to him.
First-past-the-Post voting has led to a two party system, which has led to blatant partasinship and tribalism, which has led to garbage articles like this seem reasonable to far too many. The US needs to be turned off and on again.
You think Greenwald is a Republican?
Greenwald is a libertarian who hates liberals more than he hates Trump. He was interesting when he wrote about Bush, Iraq, GWOT, etc but lost the plot with Obama and the rise of the identitarians. He’s become a crank unfortunately, and spends far too much time getting into scrapes with Brazilian unions and trashing the left on Tucker Catlson’s show.
Still haven't shook this damn covid cough!
I've just seen an interview with the Cultural Secretary in the British government on Channel 4.
She's off her face. Utterly pi??ed.
Nadine Dorries is an absolute muppet and a genuine imbecile.
Well I jinxed myself with this post as I caught it most likely the very same day. Sunday night and yesterday were the worst and not great today, but hopefully on the mend. I'm just hoping I didn't pass it to my folks as I visited them the day after I think I caught it.
Watched it about an hour ago, she could not stand up straight. Absolutely incredible.
It's good to see politicians doing what they do best!
That's very unkind.........to genuine imbeciles. This is a woman who appeared on t.v. eating a kangaroo's anus. At least it was no longer attached to the 'roo. She is a cretin of the worst kind. A vicious, xenophobe with all the charm of a syphilitic rattlesnake.
It's starting to get a bit concerning. I still think a full scale war or invasion is unlikely, but even a minor Russian manoeuvre could escalate very quickly.
The other thing that worries me is that if Russia did invade they would potentially then be on the doorstep of Poland and this would inevitably illicit a huge build up of Western forces. Poland could become the new West Germany with hundreds of thousands of Western and Russian forces facing each other through a new Iron curtain.
This presupposes Russia would actually be able to conquer and control Ukraine anyway. Which seems pretty unlikely - a full scale invasion would likely be successful but they would just get bogged down in anti-insurgency stuff. The Ukrainians aren't messing around
Haven't they massed troops like this multiple times in the past and there's been no attention on it like this. I'm not really following it but I'm sure I read the Ukranian leader say this last week. It sounded like a media frenzy to me
I don't think so. As I understand it its a pretty exceptional level of troop massing.
It's also not "media" frenzy, there are govts getting involved globally and whether it is exceptional or not on its own, that makes it so.
Did my first gig in nearly two years last weekend, where people were allowed to dance. Which was both surreal and enjoyable at the same time. Part of my brain was screaming, where are your masks. The rest was happy at the thought we might finally be seeing the back of this.
Rogan is a dimwit who fawns over men killing each other. He is therefore depraved.
I'm depraved so!
Do you upload any mixes to SoundCloud etc?
I believe @stephen_n is a big fan of Cotton Eye Joe by Rednex and 5, 6, 7, 8 by Steps.
Not the kind that I would have been playing last Saturday. I use Mixcloud for the house and techno stuff though.
Someone actually asked me to play that on Saturday night. Culchies!
You’d be more Clubland I’m guessing.
Any chance of a link. Even by PM if you don't want it public. Always after new stuff!!
To be honest in nightclubs I am not fussy about the music, just don't really like the drum n bass or rap stuff.
Most clubs I used to go to just played chart music of the time with a few classics thrown in.
