Is there actually a Countryfile segment or article linked to that tweet?

Womack

Maybe they could dip their toes in by watching Countryfile

Reading the Twitter response, most of the outrage comes from those saying things like "Hedges and trees are racist are they!!?!" which is just a wilfully over-literal interpretation of the point that's being made. I don't think it's too much of a stretch to imagine that minorities might feel the cou...

I presume a lot of them were from London but don't understand why Bournemouth? Camber Sands is probably the nearest decent beach to London . I live on the outskirts of the nearest quadrant (tm Bill) of London to Camber Sands and it takes me at least an hour and a half to get there. If you lived in ...

WTF is wrong with the English? The southern English in particular. There are lots of them living in the most densely populated part of the country, and they have easy access to a limited number of sandy beaches. There are huge numbers of them on furlough with fudge all to do. If you think the north...

Genuine question: Does anyone here feel guilt due to their skin colour? Not particularly. I do occasionally feel varying degrees of disquiet when I'm made aware of despicable things done 'by' or in the name of my country, race, culture, etc etc, but I can rationalise the extent to which I as an ind...

Right, so most everyone is in agreement: White man bad, because, reasons. White man must change, because, reasons. OK. Got you. Is the road we're one a one way path were white people are 100% to blame................ or is it a two way street and the other side also needs to take some responsibilit...

15 Police injured in Brixton. Nothing like twats who think they are empowered. Looks mostly peaceful to me. Yea- whats the problem ? They are well within their rights to protest the recent killings of blacks by cops in UK. wait... I keep seeing this sort of stuff about current protests in the UK. A...

and as they act by consent of the public they need to tread the fine line of reasonably taking all people's considerations into account. Contradiction in terms? Nope. Two clauses. The public give them consent to police. They therefore need to be seen to be - within reason - reflecting that. Laws ar...

Ash Sarkars post of the 3 Oranges on twitter is one of the most disgraceful things I've seen. I hope she get's what's coming to her. Unless 'orange' has some hidden meaning I not aware of, I'm not sure what she could really be held to account for? If she's genuinely trolling then it's a bit f**ked ...

A playground game that involves running around a seated group

Lots of outlets reporting three dead, and two more hospitalised.

There's an eyewitness account on Mirror online of a lone attacker running around a circle of friends stabbing them - the eyewitness said he thought it was a game of 'duck duck goose' at first then saw the blood.

I am just a bit surprised at your attitude. I would have hoped it was clear that my comment about 'white privilege' was not just gratuitous labelling. Again, an actual black person is saying that the RFU taking the decision to name the team the Saxons made him feel excluded - or more accurately in ...

Womack

The name Saxons was pretty much universally hated on here when the RFU brought it in, so I'm not sure why anyone would defend it now. Unbelievably crass by the RFU - well not that unbelievable I suppose, as it is the RFU. It appears to be you that is making skin colour the main issue. If a black pe...

Considering we will never know the why does it really matter. the controversy will always be there and this story will keep coming back.

No it doesn't really matter and I agree it should go. I'm only interested in the truth of the story out of curiosity rather than because of any axe to grind.

Womack

But I'd be glad to see it gone anyway. Partly because it is now, and will become more divisive and non-inclusive. Partly because it is part of an increasingly formulaic and standardised Twickenham match day experience - there was a time where lots of different things were sung at Twickenham, even va...

I have my doubts about the Chris Oti story, if only because the mental processes involved seem so unlikely - 1) Black player scores hat-trick 2) Swing Low Sweet Chariot is a song we all know 3) It is a black spiritual 4) Let's sing it because a black player has scored a hat-trick It's possible that ...

I'll have a listen later to Doom, I can't remember the music although I played the original Doom a lot on PC back in the day. I was thinking perhaps something from the Streets of Rage games...

My latest effort. Might need to have played a lot of Sonic the Hedgehog to fully appreciate.

Transcribed it from this site, which helpfully allows you to mute/unmute all the channels so you can isolate the different parts. Bit of a treasure trove for retro game fans...

Glassman's never hidden his political leanings which were always fairly right-wing - I remember in the days I followed the mainpage WOD, the first post from CrossFit HQ (ie "Coach") on the day Tookie Williams was somewhat controversially executed (after the Governator rejected a clemency plea) was "...

That's nuts! (Both the daily routine and the playing in that vid). I've been starting to do a bit of transposing through the circle of fifths with some of the easier exercises in the blues piano book I linked above, but it's slow going. I'm finding I have to think about everything to such an extent ...

Ha, yes I think 'Dean Town' is an homage to Jaco and Teen Town. I'm playing it at 100bpm, the Vulfpeck recording is around 110bpm (and Teen Town seems to be about 125bpm from a quick tap tempo check). I have no business trying to play it even at 100bpm tbh, I have to drop right down to about 60bpm t...

Womack

Ha, yeah if I pick up a guitar after playing the bass it feels like a Ukulele. Maybe I should get myself a 6-string bass.

(Who am I kidding, I'm clearly going to get one at some point anyway...and a fretless, and an acoustic, and...)

Womack

Just for fun, here's a quick stab at Dean Town by Vulfpeck using Ableton, the Novation Circuit and bass guitar: https://youtu.be/H8i7HlWLFWE In case you're wondering, those are Ableton drum sounds, assigned to the drum pads on the Circuit. I actually just recorded one bar of drums, then quantized an...

Huge difference. There's 2 'full' versions. Details here: https://www.ableton.com/en/live/compare-editions/ Next version up gets unlimited tracks, which is essential IMO. Top version gets loads more instruments and effects + Max4Live (a visual programming language). See if you can score the educati...

I'm a KB man these days, comrade. Aha, do I detect another devotee of the RKC/Strongfirst KB stuff? If not, I'd thoroughly recommend Pavel Tsatsouline's articles/books/videos on KB exercises and programming (most of which can now be had for free on youtube etc) - although some of the earlier videos...

Womack

I think I started this thread in 2009, maybe 8. The evolution of some of us over that time has been interesting. I basically use my barbell for RDLs and occasionally floor press. I probably said some unfavourable things about KBs back then, some of which I'd stand by, but some of which were short-s...
