A SELECTION OF WRITINGS
( from "What I Think" )
thoughts on futurism and how some are given to it
thoughts on the need for better attachments
thoughts on sex
that it's patently not possible
I said Scotland wouldn't go for independence and wasn't wrong
that Brexit and the Trump phenomenon were regressive
as in how much I hate it
that Scotland's capital city is under-appreciated
that she failed to rise to her great moment
in defence of John Lennon's song
a tribute to Bowie
was Michael Jackson a sex abuser after all?
rock no longer rules but it left its indelible mark
the case for the studio guy
asking whether the Internet will change the privileged status of being a successful artist
agreeing (mostly) with Steven Pinker that we live in an age of unprecedented peace
Amanda Knox's nightmare in Perugia finally ended
from politics to the pulpit they are tedious and impossible to take part in
that the price paid for exclusive partnerships is too high
that women are shamed for being sexual
that a better lexicon is needed
that young women should reject matrimony and procreation
that the reaction to Jimmy Savile was potentially as toxic as he was
that David Lowery could've done better than attack a teenager for downloading music
there is no such thing as good
that I dislike the wholesale move from talk to text
