“Disrupter”… Yeah, we need to stop using that word. He’s as much part of the establishment as the Tory members he’s helped replace.
His party is a corporate entity, and we’ll see how he gets on niw that he legally has to file his financial interests.
Mostly? So which bit were you serious about?
If you read the paper…
This finding remained robust to the inclusion of covariates describing high-school achievement, intelligence, family background, earnings as adults, as well as mental and physical health in middle adulthood.
US education system.
Mate, I haven’t forgiven them for google reader.
They killed my boy.
That’s not cheese, that’s yellow shrink wrap
Related to another popular post right now…so what was Bruce Dickinson’s ancestor?
It’s 1994. The Bosnian-Serbian conflict is still raging. Some cool dude from the UN peace keepers thinks it would be good to have a concert.
He contacts Bruce Dickinson and says, “wanna play a much needed gigin a warzone?”
Bruce says, “yes”.
Here’s the documentary.
Adore the daektable gang.
I’m gen-x and I am at the point where I don’t know if I say anything unironically any more.
(But you are spot on, slang is there, always, and it mutates as it is needed, but it isnt generational so much as sociopolitical and regional.)
Nah, its for “grizzled tanman”. You oldies just don’t get it.
I once made a music video for Sony Universal.
They paid me £4k.
They liked it a lot and asked if I would do another. I asked if the fee was the same and they said I’d be doing it for exposure.
I told them I’m capable of exposing myself.
I stuck it to them.
I’m still poor, but at least I’m not working for it.
Yup, needs are approx 115% of my budget, but thanks for insinuating it is me that’s being shit with maths.
(And in before the “live within your means” crowd… I was doing until my landlord doubled my rent and they started having to put anti-theft devices on packs of butter).
Hi, I’m Issac Newton, you might remember me from… The motions.
Petition to edit all textbooks, renaming Newton as THE Motion Guy.
Yeah, no.
Newton was such a complex human. He seemed capable of holding many, sometimes opposing beliefs, at the same time.
Newton’s conception of the physical world provided a model of the natural world that would reinforce stability and harmony in the civic world. Newton saw a monotheistic God as the masterful creator whose existence could not be denied in the face of the grandeur of all creation.
There’s even a Wikipedia page dedicated to his religious beliefs.

If you are into learning about him there’s also a rather good read, The Janus Faces of Genius, by Betty Jo Teeter Dobbs, that looks into his occult work.
Furthermore, for the sake of complexity, we can look into how, when he was the warden of the mint, he became responsible for the deaths of 19 people. He turned a largely ceremonial role into a task force, chasing down forgers and sentencing them to death.
Aye, and it sounds like it.
It’s perfect in its corny hyperbolic horror spook schlock.
It’s not war and peace.
Can you even imagine a case where someone spends note than an hour writing this stuff?
…Dave, I’ve slaved for weeks on this short two minute monologue that cribs from most every “horror” show out there?
Dunno, just feels like a vague statement with no real evidence.
Sort of like, “you wouldn’t know my girlfriend, she goes to a different school”.
…we didn’t start the fire…
Are you saying that I made something up? If so, let me know which bit it is and I’ll happily correct it.
Just to be clear though, I wasn’t saying he hasn’t had an impact on British politics. As the front man for some very shady interests he helped bring about a brexit referendum by causing the Tory party internal angst (Cameron really thought the country would vote to remain and he’d silence the right of his party that was being egged in by Farage). Nor am I negating that he has enjoyed unprecedented media exposure that has helped divide the UK.
