This is rapidly turning into the angry rant but weirdly life-affirming thread. :)

I'm in Amsterdam at the moment and realising that to live here would be impractical but that I have to find something akin to the things I love about this place closer to home. Interesting that you're talking about the merits of Brighton - it's one of the few places in the UK where I fell culturally comfortable. West London has nothing for me anymore. It's a dead place, worshipping nothing but money. It's slowly killing us.

Its that time of year when people peg up their voter intention placards and a beautiful place to live suddenly feels oppressive and alien.

Sorry?!? You serious dude? YOU?!? One of the most interesting and talented people I (kind of) know?!?
Wow, didn't see that coming at all. I'm genuinely shocked man.

Let you in on a secret, we're all idiots. We're all frauds. We all bumble our way through in the dark half the time.
You're doing fucking fantastic from where I'm stood my old chap!

'Always moisten the grind'

Is that really what this means? Only now have I bothered to look it up.

If so, it is very suitable for this thread and SOTL.

Hold me back, Twoism - I'm trying *really* hard to stop myself getting into a ranty row with someone on Facebook who is trotting out some shite about not voting as "it doesn't change anything" and is instead going to sign some bullshit online petition to "ban money" as that will be "real change".

Awful, awful hippie shite.

there's a certain point where you just have to look at a person and say "our views are fundamentally incompatible and there is no point even trying to discuss it."
