my god that was sick. that was the first time i've heard dubstep on a proper sound system and it was just....ridiculous. quality tunes, quality place, quality people. had such a good time just cotching next to the speaker at the back watching people swaying like corn in the wind, such a different vi...

Great movie, that is.

yes! it's truly terrifying in places isn't it

Why did they only stop Hitler at the last opportunity?

what?

surely it is israel as the occupying force, who should withdraw and put down its tanks, f-16s, artillery, guns, bulldozers... i'm not talking about whether or not they should stop their violent conduct because it's wrong, or it's worse than the other side's, or anything like that. they should stop ...

Yeah, a newspaper is far more trustworthy.

and wikipedia is even more so?

and got to say i disagree about the non-violence comment. up until june 9, hamas was following a unilateral cease-fire against israel for 16 months, which ended when israel bombed a family sitting on a beach. in june alone, israel killed 55 palestinians. this was when hamas was not attacking israel...

if you look at what the spokespeople have been saying, for the first couple of days they were saying the military action was to get the soldiers back, then it was to find tunnels (in gaza) and to stop rockets being fired (lebanon). after about a week they change again to saying that it is to remove...

THERE IS PLENTY OF OIL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_oil_theory i mean...it's a theory, but it's certainly got a fair bit of evidence to back it up. i don't pretend to understand all of the technicalities, but it certainly makes for chilling reading its collateral in war this is what's so baffl...

there's quite a few religions that are based on sound values even if their beliefs do turn out to be wishful thinking rather than anything realistic. i still have quite a bit of time for christians - the non-fundamentalist flavour - because their general philosophy is a sound one whether or not thei...

i'm a great believer in personal religion. if you feel the need to heap praise on whatever entity/entities you believe blessed you with life, then go ahead - but i don't see the point in making everyone else (often painfully) aware of it. all this lavish organised religion seems to be an overly self...

Industrial Society and It's Future

nice, cheers for that link! i never knew he'd written so much, i'm printing that out now :]

it reads as a sort of libertarian's Tower of Babel story to me; the greater and greater feats of 'seamanship' and the intrinsic dangers that come with them as an allegory for the technological advances of mankind, the cold of the north signifying the cold inhumanity of modern society compared to his...

George Orwell - Homage to Catalonia; i didn't know anything about the spanish civil war so i thought i'd have a read of this, it's his accounts & musings on his experiences fighting in it. it's as tragic as it is fascinating. postmodern critical theory i could never get on with the stuff i read ...

bit late and that, but Audacity is pretty good for this sort of thing[/url]

or maybe i just have synesthesia. there was a great little anecdote i heard somewhere about a famous composer who thought, as a child, that the reason the lights went down at the start of an orchestral concert was so that everyone could see the colours more vividly. he had synesthesia and thought e...
