Losing the Thread: February 2008
http://losing-the-thread.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Friday, 29 February 2008. I want to post a link to Joy Nash's You Tube video "A Fat Rant", since I can't post the actual vid here. Http:/ uk.youtube.com/watch? Joy has a really good point to make about the way overweight people are regarded. I saw it on Sister Decadence's MySpace blog and had to add a comment. This is an amended and expanded version of what I said there:. Joy is SO right. She might be technically overweight. but she's bloody gorgeous. Sometimes an 18 depending on fit and style, but I'm f...

Losing the Thread: April 2008
http://losing-the-thread.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Monday, 28 April 2008. Musings on the Teachers' Strike. There was a lot of fuss in the media last week about school closures due to the teachers' strike. Apparently, up to a third of schools were closed or partially closed last Thursday. I do support the principle the teachers were striking for. In part. Though what's so great about the Housing Ladder that everyone's so darn keen to get on it anyway? The problem of inadequate pay has become endemic in society. The people who form the backbone of soci...

Watch Between The Frames: Speaking Of
http://watchbetweenframes.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-enjoyed-captain-america-most-out-of.html
Watch Between The Frames. Film Theory, Criticism, and Practice. There was an error in this gadget. Friday, November 11, 2011. I enjoyed Captain America. The most out of all the Marvel universe super hero movies I have seen, except for the first Punisher. The vibe of the film was almost one of festivity. Everyone happy to have meaning, to do their part. Everyone had a clear purpose to identify with: kill Germans. Life was black and white. Simple. Despite what Lars Von. Had to say on the matter (in jest?

Chaos Marxism: Contradictions
http://chaosmarxism.blogspot.com/2015/07/contradictions.html
Is it possible to combine non-dualist spirituality, revolutionary socialist politics, modern insights into culture and memes, a skeptical attitude and a sense of humour? Only one way to find out. Every identity within capitalism is constructed by capitalism, and there is no outside to capitalism.". Capitalism is an internally contradictory unity prone to ever-worsening crises which can only be delayed, not avoided.". There is no outside to capitalism except death and insanity.". Jump on the bandwagon!

The Dionysian: February 2009
http://d10ny505.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
The opinions of a thinking Pagan. Sunday, 8 February 2009. Nothing deep and meaningful. This is more of a diary entry than anything else. Most people who know me will, by now, know that I'm a fairly fussy eater. It's not that I'm finicky over mushrooms or something silly like that, it's that I eat low-fat vegetarian. Vegan, nearly! The reason for this (again, as most people already know) is to do with cholesterol. Last night I began a little voyage of discovery. As it was a Saturday night I treated u...

The opinions of a thinking Pagan. Monday, 6 May 2013. That's it, I'm an actor! I suppose most of my friends already consider me an actor, having done walk-on work on telly and am-dram, but now I finally feel justified in using that title for myself without qualifying it with some term like "aspiring" or "in training". And all this because I have taken part in my first ever professional stage play. I've have been in training for stage work at The Houldsworth. We rehearsed for slightly more than a week....

The Dionysian: July 2009

The opinions of a thinking Pagan. Monday, 6 July 2009. I've been meaning to write about this for quite a long time and, frankly, have been putting it off. It's not that I'm frightened of Monsanto's mafia or of simply being wrong, it's just that there's so much of it I haven't really known where to start. Codex Alimentarius is also really, really complicated and technical. I make no apology here for running on gut instinct - it feels. In 2002 he started the Alliance for Natural Health. And has been campai...

The Dionysian: December 2008
http://d10ny505.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
The opinions of a thinking Pagan. Thursday, 18 December 2008. I was going to write something about polyamory next, but I think I need a little more research. So instead I'm going to moan about Christmas! Well, not really. Okay, maybe a bit! I was recently called a miserable old bugger because I don't like Christmas. The person who said that was actually joking, but she wasn't the first and she certainly won't be the last. Other people have said it and really meant it. Hogmanay and Apple Wassail;. Admitte...
