I think my brain would actually only go crack ping if it came out that the blair government wasn't 90% nonce.

How many of Blair's cabinet got Operation Ore'd? On the topic are there any good longform articles or documentaries/podcasts on Ore and what went on with it. It seemed to fizzle out quickly so presumably the police either badly hosed it or it implicated the wrong people (or both I guess).

Operation Ore was more about accusing people who used the same credit card processing server as a pedo site of being nonces until they killed themselves because the pigs couldn't read a set of logs the US sent them. As always, never anything touching high society.

My O2 sats never really dropped below 98, though I've occasionally gotten wild HR spikes to like 110bpm when I'm just watching TV, which was a bit unsettling but ultimately ok i didn't know babestation was still on the go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

big scary monsters posted:I like to think of the War on Christmas as an eternal fight where every year on December 25th* the Avatar of Christmas is symbolically defeated and has to go back to its shadowy nether realm**, ready to return late the next year to battle it all out again. ... that's getting a cultural reference impressively wrong. According to Finnish tradition, Santa lives on Korvatunturi, ever guarding the eastern border. Rovaniemi is a tourist trap full of the worst gammons, according to people who have had the misfortune of living there.

Hi thread, foregoing my usual OCD/masochistic need to read every single drat post in here (so fukkin many...) to wish you all a splendid New Year. Have a blast, don't catch plague, be kind to each other. RIP to icon and star April Ashley - who I narrowly escaped appearing in a video with back in the early 80s. I was lending the film crew some of my stage lights to use and the very drunk director got it in his head that tall, long-haired, bearded me would look good in a red velvet ballgown. Was trying to think of an escape when there was a quiet "Ahem" from behind us. Turned around and there was April resplendent in her own red velvet ballgown, she gave him a look and said witheringly "No. I don't think so." Total goddess. Fine with me, crew don't do stage. To celebrate her and all like her, have a banging song by another fabulous star in the trans firmament from back in the day, the incredible, one and only Jayne County. Still kicking it. I once found myself standing next to Jayne at the bar after a gig a friend put on, I was far too starstruck to say anything though. Wish I had. As is often the case she was terrifying on stage but reportedly a real honey off it. I am also convinced that the secret reason Glinner and all the other current rabid male anti-trans nuts are quite so loving crazy is that, even if they don't know it exists, they all share a deep unconscious knowledge that the only answer they could possibly give to this song is a resounding No. Play loud. See ya next year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7a75IwL7btw

I'm ending 2021 as I spent far too much of it, watching Japanese wrestling. I will also be starting 2022 as I intend to go on, watching Japanese wrestling. So I will watch the end of this Stardom show, then catch a SEAdLINNNG show from the same day. There's a ZERO1 show that starts at 2:30am so I may as well watch that live, then go sleep for a few hours (I already napped after dinner) in time for Pro Wrestling NOAH starting at 7am. 2021 has been weird. The world is obviously on fire in a variety of exciting ways, from the pandemic we've just given up on taking seriously to the clearly obvious fact that capital is too driven by short-termism to do anything about climate change until the impacts directly impact them, which is stupid but very on-brand to the massive corruption in government & the rampant & growing inequality at the heart of neoliberalism. But all that said it's not actually been a bad year for me on a personal level. Nothing remarkable, just steady getting on but any year where depression stays down is a good one. I miss getting to go to gigs & am long past the point where seeing my non-local friends is very desirable but gently caress, I'm healthy, my other family members are healthy, we're getting by, the other things are small-fry compared to that. So, hope 2022 is at least as decent as 2021 on a personal level, and much better in a wider social sense, & that the new year is good for all the goons I bore & annoy & even very occasionally amuse. And may we all continue posting badly.

I'm sorry, but I've been to the Rovaniemi Christmas village and they quite explicitly say that they have the real and genuine Santa Claus there. I chose not to meet him, though. e: Covid/cold chat, I had a cold a couple months back before people were talking about Omicron and it knocked me right on my arse. Can't recall the last time I felt so poo poo. I don't know whether it was a particularly nasty strain or whether I just had forgotten what getting ill felt like, but it didn't have any covid-like symptoms at all and I tested negative so I assume it was not that. big scary monsters fucked around with this message at 00:31 on Jan 1, 2022 |
