The problem is wider than the Tories as I truly believe that England is fucked on a deep level, but they are the immediate danger. They're at their most dangerous and incompetent right now. Exactly. And they would like nothing better than for …

sciencey stuff and astronomy type things.
You've prompted me to remember some Health and Safety at school stories, WW. Not so carefree, either, serenity! The teachers at my secondary school were clueless. In a metalwork lesson, I was sprayed with molten aluminium when our teacher demo…

I can't remember, was it potassium or phosphorus that blows up the test tube with water? That was fun. And, of course, the teacher said, "please choose a small piece"... Yeah, right. It will have been potassium I expect, WW. White …

Reasons etc #8,395 Former banker Theresa May's so in touch with ordinary people, of course. Her personal wealth includes: * a million-pound pied-a-terre in London * a 4-5 bedroom house in a Berkshire village, estimated value also around £1m *…

Reasons to vote against the Tories #8,394 * At this month's scientific conference on the Badger "cull" (Toryspeak for "mass killing programme"), it was widely agreed that the killing programme so far has probably increased …

Quite. May has chosen a very smart approach - "Back me against Johnny Foreigner". As if she is the representative of the poor, the sick, the struggling, the disadvantaged rather than doing it ALL to make sure the rich, the privileged, the …

Everyone is trying to convince us that the Tory party is the only choice in the forthcoming election, and that Theresa May is the kind of strong yet compassionate leader that we need. She is the "unsung hero of equal marriage" says Pink Ne…

Highlights in the garden this morning * a fledgling Dunnock being fed (they have interesting family structures - some are monogamous, others polyandrous, others four-parent families). * a pair of bullfinches feeding on dandelion seedheads * an oran…

Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey" probably originated around the same time as the Old Testament. Unlike the OT's single patriarch who carries supreme authority, though, Homer's gods are multiple and contesting, which s…

^^ I played the first half dozen of the YouTube mix that follows this track. Consequently, I've shortened my own lifespan by about 5 years, but that is purely academic, as I now believe that the species responsible for all this will become exti…

I have to agree about EINE... it just continues along with the same level of "oomph" the whole time...I wonder why they haven't made their releases a proper 12-track length to be honest...I think the listening conditions make a big di…

Speaking of pornographic, the Tories are continuing to demonstrate their compassionate side. Today, they implement a new requirement for child tax credit claimants who have children conceived after a rape to describe the circumstances. If the civil …

^As was established on another thread recently, having contrary opinions is one of the things we do best, so please carry on, Gaelen! Like NovaLasing says ,the cover artwork of a 12" LP was often a joy in itself. I'm not sure how coloured…

What made it an especially good interview was that Alison wasn't on her own; Will was witty and relaxed and even Angie got a word or two in. It really showed how Alison's alleged frostiness with some interviewers is pure nervousness
