World Cup 2018 – Day 14 – 18
Jesus H. Christ. This world cup will be remembered as one of the many world cups. And by football fans, one of the better world cups. Unfortunately I was unable to give an update before the knock-outs began as I was playing a football myself. Would you Adam and Eve it? The last day of … Continue reading World Cup 2018 – Day 14 – 18
On Podcasts -Russell Brand, Ed Milliband, Sam Harris, James O’brien, Bob Mortimer, Adam Buxton, etc.
Life has been derailed by the World Cup, as evidenced by the above and below posts. As the World Cup has infested all my waking hours (not spent job hunting). Podcasts have continued with periodic certainty and somehow made me feel slightly better about life. This is an attempt to sneak in some more content and … Continue reading On Podcasts -Russell Brand, Ed Milliband, Sam Harris, James O’brien, Bob Mortimer, Adam Buxton, etc.
World Cup 2018 – Day 8
Summer in the British Isles is a curious thing, you spend months wishing for it in all its glory and then spend the days inside watching football when it arrives. Or I do, anyway. In an effort to avoid this exact situation, I made plans to excommunicate myself. A timely homage to Stalinist Russia. My … Continue reading World Cup 2018 – Day 8

The big Saturday was a long day with lots of football, the big Sunday was a long day … Continue reading World Cup 2018 – Days 3-7 – Round-up
World Cup 2018 – Day 1

There was a sound in the UK of a collective, growing "aaahhhh..." as everyone suddenly realised that Robbie Williams is an archetypal Russian popstar. Could it be that Robbie Williams is a Russian plant too? Anyway, his sarcastic, Anglophilic, coked-up swagger put in mind an … Continue reading World Cup 2018 – Day 1

On… Television
In accordance with my last post, I'm going to chunder out a mass review of all the tv I watched over the exam period. I kept a list and everything. Also in accordance with the last post, the generally confused and subjective tone. The general formula of TV is formula. Do it once, well. Well, do … Continue reading On… Television
Theory and Praxiszzzz
As I attempt to synthesise a semesters worth of sociological theory alongside a semester of unwritten posts and scribbles from a notebook, do not lose heart. There will be a point to all of this. The life of an anonymous, poorly-subscribed-to online lifestyle brand is a lonely one. The nature of living our creative existence … Continue reading Theory and Praxiszzzz
The Salon
This is a true story. Tenses may have been jumbled in an effort to maintain the corporeal sense of time which one feels when attending an appointment. Moreover, I've not got the energy to edit it too much at this stage. The following takes place a quick walk from Baker Street, past the famous … Continue reading The Salon
