I had never heard of Girlyman until this morning, and now I've seen two references in one day.

Cathal Coughlan (Microdisney, Fatima Mansions, Telefís). His solo album Black River Falls is beautiful (The Ghost of Limehouse Cut, Black River Falls, Frankfurt Cowboy Yodel)... To say nothing of Microdisney or the Fatima Mansions.

Actually one of the songs on his last album with Telefís was a mockery of TESCREAL beliefs. Space Is Us: "I will live forever in those racks of tin"

Wow, these people have not planned anything at all. They're going to homeschool all 7+ kids? And go into politics, a job that infamously has long, unsociable hours?

They bought this house and the one next door for $575,000; they allow their neighbours to live in the second house rent free, in exchange for childcare.

Seems normal !

I don't know anything about evolution or genetics, and I'm pretty sure this guy doesn't either. Why would everyone become disabled because more disabled people survive and pass on their genes to their kids? We don't stone gingers to death and yet we are not all having red-headed kids.

The repeated use of the word "weak" (as opposed to "sick" or "disabled") seems revealing.

Damn, these guys really hate Stephen Jay Gould don't they.

I thought Thatcher on Acid was a band from the 80s, not the EAies' approach to economic policy

Oh yeah I've heard of the testicle munchers, I just wanted to crack wise.

Jesus, that second post.

[Benzos are] not only a great amnestic, it’s also apparently one of the most heavily prescribed drug classes historically, and used recreationally - which puts very strong lower bounds on the drug’s safety in practice, and means it’s probably readily available.

Yeah, because no widely used drug has ever turned out to be harmful, right?! Right?! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to huff some glue. After all, glue huffing is widely practiced recreationally - by kids, even - so it's probably safe, right?
