What are you reading in general?
Don't consider it, just watch it. Definitely the best adaptation of it I have seen (and it's bloody rare I'll recommend a movie adaptation of a book ).

How Do You Feel Today? v4
Eh, I'm bored and lazy. I'm on leave after next week Wednesday, and with a raft of public holidays coming up, as well as my birthday (which I get a paid day off for from work), I put in for 6 leave days and got 14 consecutive days off (including weekends). That's great and all, but I'm already firml...

What Do You Think Today?
My dear fellow...the real problem is that they're claiming that democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs are "fundamental British values."

hey say we get the leaders we deserve. We must have done some very bad things indeed if this is true. You did...you voted the current bastards into power. And you'll vote the next bunch in too. Spot the pattern? :D The two sides would take positions at opposite ends of the chosen clearing and begin...

Ouch, that's gotta hurt, but then I suppose the chances of a Tory government staying in power after the next elections is minimal, so he might not have anything to lose. But still, talk about "tone deaf."

Set up some fucking NHS dental clinics! How hard can it be. Make all UK newly qualified dental surgeons provide five years of service to such clinics in return for the investment the country has made in their training, and provide a basic checkup, filling and extraction service to all registered NH...

Skyrim: A Rare Sighting.
I must say I have seen that, I seem to recall that it is triggered at a certain point in the main story, after which it is a "random encounter" that you have a chance of seeing while travelling.

History will judge who has the right of this, and I have no fear on that score. All law grows from the barrel of a gun The real and perhaps deeper danger here is that things like this push the "global south" toward regimes like China and Russia. The fact that these powers were not colonia...

And since I'm doing it, have moved on to Margaret Weiss' Star of the Guardians, book 1, The Lost King. Space opera but I can't help drawing parallels with Star Wars which it is clearly at least partially "inspired" by.

I was just reading some horrifying stuff about the "dental Deserts" in the UK...Say what I will about SA, at least I can get a dentist, and afford one. In other news, I see that the US has taken some surprising steps re Israel, and both they and the UK have intimated recognising Palestinia...
