Born during a power cut in 1972, I have always preferred the dark. Not really but it sounds cool.

A poem written in black marker on a wall. 

In order forme
to write poetry
that isn't political
I must listen to
the birds
And in order
to hear the
birds not
The Warplanes must
Be Silent.

The British public refuse to accept that it's cheaper to provide welfare than withdraw it. Fewer benefits result in increased crime and poorer public health, requiring increased resources for the police and NHS. Prevention is cheaper than the cure, it's that fucking simple.

one thing I like saying to my cats in admonishment is "you know the rules" when they very clearly do not know and will never know the rules

It really is. I was pleasantly surprised when he was chosen as the entry. Then I worried that his sound would be massaged to make it the usual pish.
It has not been. It's as catchy and chaotic as I could have hoped.

My ICQ UIN is 7231680. That number is burned into my consciousness. I inadvertently learned that you could see private conversations in public chat rooms when using Telnet instead of a browser on GeoCities. I can tell you the difference in audible dial-up handshakes between 1200, 2400, 14.4 kbps modems. I needed a edu email address to join Facebook after my university was admitted. We were here at the beginning. We made social media. You wouldn't be in my Top 8. I have usernames older than you.
