The World is Fucked
Out of 186 countries, only Guyana produces enough food to self-sufficiently feed all its citizens without foreign imports.
- Thats the country Venezuela wants to "unite" with.sted
- this doesn't make sense, how can all countries export to each other if they can't meet the needs of their own citizens?_niko
- also Guyana is pretty poor and sparsely populated, if this means that they can get by with local fruits vegetables, fish etc and don't need to import caviar_niko
- from the Caspian Sea or wagu beef from Australia or other non-essential luxury food stuff then that's fine, but all countries could probably do the same if they_niko
- just eat what they can grow, hunt and harvest._niko
- canada grows tons of corn and wheat probably 10000x more than it can use itself, so we can just eat bread and popcorn all day or trade it for some nice bananas_niko
- because we trade for bananas doesn't make us not self-sufficient...do... it?_niko
- Australia too I believes... https://www.farminst…MrT

I never understood the appeal of "Love Will Tear Us Apart"
.... and I like Peter Saville's "Unknown Pleasures" artwork a lot better than any of Joy Division's music (yet I am a huge fan of the music of New Order)Unpopular opinion?
- just not your cup of tea.
I like Joy Division a lot but still would rank New Order higher.pango - yeah, that's it - not for my sensibilitiesKrassy
- it was literally a different time of mood. i wouldnt worry too much about it and enjoy what you like._me_
- Different, unique, haunting voice, heavy, ultimately tragic. Just something beautifully depressing about it._niko
- It’s like a really good pungent blue cheese, you might love it but also 100% understand why other people despise it lol_niko
- @_niko yeah, thanks for the perspective. I'm not worried about it or hating on it...I do enjoy what I likeKrassy
- I just find it a bit overhyped ;-)Krassy
- The appeal is the drum beat. And the synth line. And the bass line. And the melody. But hey, New Order are cool too.stoplying
- ^ stop lying, dudeKrassy
- =)Krassy
- I think it has to do with age and time period... older folks like JD more than NO.. NO was changing the game and we were ready for itcanoe
- Not sure if it's really a fair thing to say overhyped. I mean I don't care for Elvis Presley, does that mean he was overhyped?canoe
- Love Will Tear Us Apart is total pop, you can sing along to it, and everybody can agree with the ironycanoe
- ^ fair fairKrassy
- just not your cup of tea.

T-shirt of the day
A friend found a big bag of his old band tee's in his attic all of which have not seen daylight in over 40 years. He's a bit of a hoarder and plans on putting them up on the bay sometime but I'll give you first look here. I think the one with the rope/hands is an un-official one, he saw The Stranglers several times in the 70's, these are all original and medium size but they certainly don't fit him anymore but he's sitting on a few quid here. I have a couple of my own which I'll dig out sometime.

I'm sharing with you a thought that's been bothering me for some time...
My dad thinks I'm rich.
Just like that.
And nothing could be further from the truth.
Oh my...
- lol this is funny, what does he do?monospaced
- My father? He is 80, he's retired...OBBTKN
- I mean, what does he do to imply he thinks you’re rich?monospaced
- I have no idea, I own three bikes and I get paid for my drawings... other than that, few luxuries ;)OBBTKN
- well back in the day luxuries were expensive. Nowadays luxuries are relatively cheaper. Perception hasn't changed yet I guess.pango
- A $300 TV in 60s would have cost $2,490 in today's money.
Today an average TV still costs $300pango - A good tv costs $2500 thoughmonospaced
- A good pen also costs $2500.
but we talking about the most popular sold price point.pango - lol like you're 16 "I own three bikes" :D one day you're going to be able to put those together and build one that's actually can be called a bike ;)sted

- Theories about him and others within the LA scene with military parents were part of a psychological operation to 'influence' in the 60s. Found myself watchingmicrokorg

Really getting back into dance music. Fucking love it.
I started going to Nowadays in Queens on Sunday mornings for the early sessions. I get up at 6am, in the club by 7am, a little smoke, a little weirdness for a few hours and back home.
I'm 43 and really am comfortable being the older guy in the club – more than i thought. Its funny how even after 30 years of going to raves, it still has the same appeal. Nowadays has a no phone policy which is amazing and actually makes the place feel timeless. The BPMs are faster than they used to be, and there are more trans folks around than there were in the north of England in the late 90s but on the whole, its comforting to know that people are still dancing in dark rooms to pounding dance music.

Sweet.
You go girl / boy.ideaist - Respect._me_
- *high five*Akagiyama
- My daughter has started going to raves (doofs now) and is really into EDM. The stuff they listen to is pretty dope, producers like Restricted and Schrotthagen.slappy
- love thiscanoe
- This actually makes me want to try going to a club at 7am.fattymcgrizzle
- Are you going sober? Or wake and bake and shake?_niko
- That's great. There's been a big daytime rave / over 30s rave thing here in Ireland for the last couple of years.mort_
- Back to the old skool with no phones in the air, just dancing and enjoying the music.microkorg
- The DJ HELL and Sandwell District morning sets at Nowadays a few months back were absolutely epic!moogchild
- daytime dancing? shit yeah! go git 'embezoar
- I've got friends that go to day raves. Specifically targetted at the old skool crowdmicrokorg
- Old people day rave sounds awesome! Party before sunset, and still in bed by 9pm? Fuck yeah.Akagiyama
- Straight edge partying intrigues me...ideaist
- that little smoke takes off the edge...or gives u the edge...neverscared
- as long as u stay in the groove both works...neverscared
- Wake and bake and then zero alcohol athletic beers! Enough to be 'in the spirit', not too much to feel it for days afterwards.DaveO
- I must stress that this is not a 'brunch rave' or 'sober clubbing' – its just a 24 hour venue where I go in the morning! Like Panorama or Berghain in essenceDaveO
- true u have to stress.... day raves are not the edge...neverscared
- everything about this post is amazing, you've even rumbled some alts.garbage
- Heard people still get mad out of it at day raves lol.mort_
