LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD:

It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS.

I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

Robin Hood robbed from the rich to give to the poor, despite an exodus of barons to the Middle East. So obviously it can be done.

I’ve always thought the issue should be ‘learning to learn’. As is pointed out many times in the comments, the transferable skills from the humanities are legion.
But..
The issue I see with more ‘vocational’ based education at this level is what happens when that job disappears?

East Sussex really is beautiful this time of year isn’t it

Just ordered a Jigsawl puzzlode from Mooseloppers- a createy, imaginale, talentymost nutter.

Have you seen the new Test Dept compilation?

I think the last time I did a road trip for a band was 25 odd years ago. And even that was because I was driving and tour managing

I think what it highlights more than anything is the utter lack of long term planning for any high level d vision made. Everything is about the next election, and not what the country actually needs

Ooh, at The Dome…
Literally just been laid off from there (health again)

Saw Mogwai last time they played there (obviously)

I even had a guest list if I wanted but have had to be firm with myself and no shows outside Brighton this year (health)

Did the CV bit but whitstable was just too far for me

We used to see her in Hyper Hyper in the eighties. We little bunch of small town goths and weirdos who’d jump the train, do Kensington Market to buy bootleg cassettes and then over the road pretending we had a chance of buying her and Dave Vanians then wife’s stuff

It all too often seems that the stress is built in. Have too many family members and friends that have got to maybe first application, gets turned down and just go ‘fuck it, I’m not going through that again’.
So the system ‘wins’

Our daughter has to prove her Down Syndrome hasn’t decided to bugger off every few years
