Introduction I’m sure you are aware of this thing called ‘The System’. The term gets lobbed around often enough. Whatever you reckon it is, there’s no doubt we are all stuck in it, and apart from becoming a hermit or a corpse, there seems to be no escape. So, what the fuck is IT? And…

The later film was made 40 years ago from today what’s more! That film was called “Santa Clause: The Movie” (1985). It begins with an origin story, but the drama takes place in the present – or that present – the present time the movie was released – 1985! The other film was titled “Miracle…

So, the ever-resourceful humans found another way to improve their living conditions. I have no idea how many generations it took to make a go of this botanic enterprise, but eventually it became a thing. These stone-age scientists worked out what to plant, where to plant it and the best times to do it. I…

We’ll skip the primordial soup and jump ahead a few eons. I reckon we can bypass the evolution stage, and the debate for that matter. Let’s kick-off with the original human beings wandering the landscape looking for and trying not to become food. Shit! Can you imagine the treacherous learning curve for those people? Especially…

“Into this house, we’re born Into this world we’re thrown Like a dog without a bone An actor out on loan” The Doors ‘Riders on the Storm’ However you believe this circus got started, we’re in it and we’re stuck. There’s only one way out and that seems very final as far as we know.…
