l like the look of the captain canuck comic

 


phobos and a sunset as seen from the surface of mars (and glastonbury).

A reminder that we are the only humans in history to have witnessed this. Progress and technology is mind blowing, and yet America has a lying fascist child rapist as president and the far right is gaining hold again across Europe and South America, ignoring the lessons from the 1930's. What a time to be alive.



Meanwhile, at Glastonbury...

israel targeting children with kites cartoon

 It might be funny if it wasn't true. Israel have stated if Palestinian children are flying a kite the kites will be treated as weapons. And l don't believe that Palestine Action activists are terrorists. I'm old enough to have lived through the IRA Bombings, and old people holding up signs against genocide should not be arrested in a free country.

reform - more tales from the back of a fag packet

 


who's side is donald trump on?

Nothing to see here. Just a delegation to Russia (but not Ukraine for their 35 year celebrations) and posting photographs of himself with an enemy of the USA. We all know what side he's on, and it's not Americas.

my cds still need sorting out

Some of my CDs in the spare room. I'm still slowly sorting them out but this is only about half of the collection, as l also have them in other rooms. What's holding me back? Sheer laziness and yet a keen interest in other things that occupy my time culture wise.

where l was on this day in 1977 - reading festival

My first festival, I hitch hiked there and back, and it was very very muddy. The highlights for me were Aerosmith (who l recorded) and The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, who l loved and still love. Best of the rest?  Eddie and the Hot Rods, Lone Star and Thin Lizzy. Tickets £7.50!

rupert lowe propaganda in the area!

This pile of crap was put through my letter box by someone who obviously does not know my views, otherwise there would have been a firm and frank  'discussion' on the doorstep had encountered the leafleteer.

paranoid? even the signs are after me

 I'll admit drink had been taken, but walking home from the pub the other night l thought for a second or two that this was a person. I guess you had to be there to get the full effect.

the new spider-man verus jake lang is better than the new movie

 What a time to be alive. Witnessing a real life Spider-Man beat the crap out of the far right Jake Lang. I'm certainly looking forward to the new comic books.
