It’s that time of the week again when you can skip and scroll down to Beyoncé et al. bump and other body parts display at the Grammys if you care, although forsaking entitlement to berate me on those “serious issues” some curiously come to find here or at least tell me so when tutting over over something I’ve drawn.
Not quite this week but after last Saturday’s round-up, America’s Orange Don gave more reason for those even former supporting to call him a lying rotter, just like all the others, and throw him under the Trumpbus seemingly careering off his non-existent protectionist orange brick road:
Trumpfence: America to pay for “cheap design” wall (thisisnocave.blogspot.co.uk).
“Donald Trump has said he will lower the cost of building a wall along the US-Mexico border by negotiating a bargain and using a cheap design.”
Indeed, I think that means “cheap” materials known as “fence”, the only bricks involved inevitably ending up at a laughing Tijuanero vaquero’s hacienda (a Mexican cowboy chaps ranch).
And, back on this side of the Atlantic pond with Brexit giving all the opportunistic opportunity if they can decide how to spin it’s bottle without it ending up your own ’arris ala “Walty Mitty” Kipper-skipper Paul Nuttall, having seemingly not got a call back to be third wheel for tangerine Trump/St. Theresa relations nor call back after stressing he is available for Brexit negotiations:
Tony Blair is available, for revolution (thisisnocave.blogspot.co.uk).
“Tony Blair has said it is his ‘mission’ to persuade Britons to ‘rise up’ and change their minds on Brexit. Speaking in the City of London, the former prime minister claimed that people voted in the referendum ‘without knowledge of the true terms of Brexit’. He urged ‘a way out from the present rush over the cliff’s edge’.”
Said revolution needing a leader for which, yes, he is available, and must be having that “dirty old Trot without his tie-done up” Comade Corbyn giving red hammer and sickles with his eyes being as how old no longer new Labour is trying to steal the revolution he hasn’t got around to convincing his own lot they could, maybe, have a go at, at some time, possibly, in the future. And indeed some red collywobbles to all in Parliamentary Labour desperate to keep Stoke away from Kipper, fact that Kipper skipper was last telling all he once piloted the Arc Royal himself—also known as digging a marine hole—in between scoring a winning goal for England of no interest or seeming advantage.
A digest that through the quirky deconstruction of latest stories aims to show that a lot of media “opinion” is actually just “agenda” or “opportunity” and why philosophy is useful in everyday life in defining—for and by yourself—the difference between what ancient Greeks like Plato defined as episteme (knowledge) and doxa (belief), and not just idealistic training to pack Fyffes bananas. Think a bumper bonanza of those cultural, political and just down right hypothetical you don’t really read in Latest Picks.
