Van der Leun: The Normblog Bio of Your Host
“From a student radical/hippie/leftist of the Free Speech Movement/Vietnam Day Commitee era and a full-on Democratic Liberal in the decades after, I think I’ve evolved a politics that is neither right nor left but is, in its elemental nature, draconian. In the last 20 years, I’ve taken apart my beliefs with a sledgehammer. Now I’ve got to put the surviving parts back together with tweezers and other ‘shabby equipment, always deteriorating’.”

Quit your fuckin whining, grow a pair, start your own thing, keep ALL the coin.
It’s the easiest thing in the world to do here in the merry old land of oz but nobody has any nutz and all the lazy asses can do is piss and moan and beg. I got no sympathy for people unwilling to help themselves.
