    I figure it is like football team supporters.

    Football isn’t real either. It’s a made up thing with made up rules and made up uniforms.

    But it someone tells you they support a team, you go, “OK”.

    Even if they are wearing the shirt of one team and say they support the other, “OK”.

    Maybe they don’t look like they support either team, stil,l “OK”.







  • Ok, not preaching here… Just sharing something that helped me.

    I was “terminally online”.

    It got me down.

    What I found out was that staying well informed doesn’t mean keeping up to date with what is happening at this very moment. It means learning all the wonderful things from history.

    Well informed means learning, right?

    There are so many brilliant things you can learn right now. And they’ll all make you a better, more useful, citizen.

    Learn how to paint. Learn photography. Learn why the Japanese like squid. Learn cockney rhyming slang. Learn about Egypt’s history with gold. Learn it all. That’s also staying well informed.

    News is such a small part of being human.

    Children born between next Wednesday and Friday will be designated “generation cd-dvd” closely followed by those born the following week who will be called “generation noombers”.

    The media will focus tightly on how these two groups, born mere hours apart can be entirely characterised in general terms that don’t consider geographic, social, economic, or race discrepancies and will set them against each other in a bitter feud that includes housing availability and which slang is the best slang.
