8 CommentsTwo-and-a-half years ago, I sent the below letter to my local council. Their response was profoundly inadequate, and all communications I have sent to them since have been ignored. In respect of the events of the last three years, and with the truth about the vaccines rapidly coming to mainstream prominence, I think it might […]

21 CommentsSo it's here at last: what all us crazy fringe basement-dwellers have been saying for years (and I actually have a basement, well a cellar, fully wired up and everything, and have considered relocating there in the event of nuclear war / invading armies / descending aliens, or should any other of the spoiler alerts […]

10 Comments(Please note, 'Riski' was actually a typo, but just like there is much truth in fiction, there is also much accuracy in autocorrect...)

7 CommentsYou know, out of all the many and magnificent beautiful linguistic structures that adorn the world, why did you pick this one? Because, I mean, English is hard. Its grammar is weird, its rules inconsistent, and as for the spelling... still nobody knows why tough, though, and through don't only not rhyme, but in fact […]
