The lie that is Las Vegas and Conservatism

Here I am, sitting in room 20071, on the 20th floor of Treasure Island hotel, in the middle of the strip in Las Vegas. It`s 4 am Vegas time, and I`m wide awake. Being here has perhaps partially answered a question I have long been at odds with. Why do working class people vote Tory. I think it maybe the same reason that some people come to Vegas. I'm sure many gamblers have a deep seated belief that they are special, and more lucky/deserving than the next guy, and will therefore win more money, and working class Tory voters will do better out of right wing golitical changes, than him. The stark reality that they are not is the reason that big business wins in both cases.

People genuinely believe that they will end up better off in both scenarios, and ignore the fact that not everyone can 'win'. Big businesses reap the profits.

Here’s a tip for the do-it-yourself crowd: 

Go to your computer’s Start menu, and either 

go to “run” or just search for “cmd.” Open it up, 

and type in “ping [website address],” 


Once you have the IP for a website, all you really need 

to do is enter it like you would a normal URL and hit enter/press go. 

Typing in “208.85.240.231” should bring you to 

the front page of AO3, for example, just as typing “174.121.194.34/dashboard” 

should bring you straight to your Tumblr dashboard. Since we’re obviously 

bracing for the worst case scenario which would involve you not being able to 

access the internet regularly, you should, save this list.

The genesis of a Gabba Gabba

 Hat tip Hari Howell for discovering the genesis of the immortal "Gabba Gabba Hey" chant . Vintage ramones from a much older vintage. From the film "freaks" by Tod Browning. 1932

I followed my own advice to Nick, and added a Kindle to my Amazon wishlist. Lo and behold, a beaut of a Kindle Wireless Reader 3G Wifi Graphite turned up today, thanks to my lovely missus & family

It's even better than i thought, and now it's linked to Kim's account, I can read all her books, too.
