! Dear priti patel, !  RE:  The End of Free Movement  !  With the absolute deepest of all due heartfelt disrespect!  !  FUCK OFF!  !  I just wish I could say this to your outraged "karren" souled face! . . Theresa May once said, "If You Believe You are a Citizen of the World,"  "You are a Citizen of Nowhere" ! I say instead: "If You Believe in Morality for only some of the World" "You are Immoral Everywhere!" ! . ! Yet another nail in the coffin of any pride I had left about being British! !

! When it comes to anti-miss naughty trumpy man sentiments, "IF" you do not like want some may say, THEN you are REALLY NOT going to like my social media pages! ! Imagine whatever others may say and multiply it a thousand! THEN add squirty cream and a fresh cherry on top! ! I would never assassinate the so-called man. On the contrary, I want "it" to have a VERY long life! ! But I would love to paralyse "it" from the neck down, Surgically take out his, eardrums, eyes and tongue And then keep "it" alive trapped in "its'" own body as long as scientifically possible.  . Then rent "its" mouth out for people to rape. At 5£ per 20 minutes. . . But apart from 'THOSE' sentiments... . I am actually, pretty much, kinda impartial... . :) . ! !

! . DEAR 13-Year-old Self! . DO NOT BOTHER TO LEARN HOW TO READ! . In the long run, getting an education will only cause you pain! . It will only give you unachievable ambitions that will break your heart and mind! . Instead, Take Drugs, Commit Crime and die happier at 25 (ish ) instead! . Yours Your 48-year-old self! . ! . ! I have a BA in print media and I have worked for as little as 1p a word because I needed the cash some months.  . My only way of getting work when I was on Fivver, sometimes, is by ruthlessly undercutting those unlucky enough to be working further south where everything is far more expensive!  . The value of a lot of (but not all) further education is a sick joke!  . Sometimes I just wish that I could send a letter back in time to my 13-year-old self! ......  !

! . MY 'FAKE USA ELECTION' PREDICTION FOR 2020:  MADE AT 11:15 am GMT 6th Nov! . "IF" Trump loses (Which he won't) He will claim it was electoral fraud (Which it wasn't) and he will take it to the supreme court (Which he owns) ! . When Biden Looses (Which he will) He will concede with grace and dignity and not clam electoral fraud (Which it was) ! . The "last-minute Trump win" is all part of the pre-set drama! . How close it "seems" is just an illusion to hide the depth of political corruption! . All this "Inevitable" crap that Biden has won is just part of the selling the show! . There was NEVER a fair election! Trump ALWAYS had 'it'  per-purchased! . . NOT psychic...,  ...just seeing the patterns... . ! . If there are ANY proper investigative journalist with any resources left in the world (Which there isn't) that want to do a bit of snooping, . Here is a hint...  Start with "Georgia"!  . !

A stranger with no memory and a very unusual hunger But, Not for food, A stranger with an unusual thirst. But, Not for water Only Sin could sate his appetite. . His name is Rat Stars And he seems to be about 10 years old! . He learns that only by redeeming people and teaching them valuable life lessons can his hunger and thirst ever be satisfied. The more he “eats” the more he physically ages and grows. And the more fantastic powers he gets. But the powers don’t make “eating” easy. (Although they can be particularly useful.) Because he doesn’t get “fed” by solving people’s problems for them. He only gets “Fed” when the strangers he meets, learn to be better people and help others as well as themselves. .
