Everybody's got a hold on hope
This seems like a good time to step back from the day to day atrocities that is our world, during these dark days. These are going to be some tough times, and it doesn’t look good for the medium term … Continue reading
Stop lying, mind your manners
Oh my: Hundreds of furious Chinese parents rampaged through a lead factory yesterday after the authorities blamed pollution from the plant for poisoning more than 600 children. The protest follows a week of denials and revelations that have grabbed headlines … Continue reading
Grotesque and Arrogant II
