I'm sure the Iraqi people would love to be bored of war too. What a vacuous and callous thing to post, Helen Lewis should be ashamed of herself.

So many particulars. So many questions.
ironic post-modern ennui I think. Oh darling the Armenian genocide is just so fucking boring now. Shall I fetch a blueberry muffin?

Hardly getting over it.
It's Helen Lewis,and she's a columnist. She's paid to think up faux-controversial positions,and to voice them. Think of her as a 99p store Julie Burchill, but without the sarcastic wit.

NS is shit at the best of times; but Helen Lewis is so terribly vapid with her shite opinions for money.

In fairness, I did want to stick Barry Mainwaring's head on him, but a mixture of incompetence and laziness conspired against me once again and the "ah, it'll do" approach prevailed. This is why we can't have nice things etc.

Those of you with shit music taste may remember the existence of Alec Empire, the main guy from Atari Teenage RIot. Anyway he's having a full on anti-deutsch meltdown on twitter at the moment.

Does Alec Empire count as 'commentariat' now?

Not sure I want to mock someone who may be obviously mentally unwell to be honest.

They were formed when I was still a child, are in no way currently trendy and I've never been a fan!

Is there some indication that all's not right with him, other than the sub-anti-deutsch gibberish he was talking?
equationgirl

Other than that, no, but it doesn't sound exactly sensible behaviour.

He's a confused German anarchoid leftist. That shit is par for the course.

The German housemate of mine who put together the Portuguese Revolution museum thing in the squatted house in Porto with me that I may have mentioned here and there shared a Berlin squat with Alec Empire back in the day.
Can I be commentariat now please too?

As I look out of my Hoxton window at the chicken dinner boxes blowing down the street, I ponder on the similarities between my embattled plight and that of the Yazidi...

huh ? from the above post you're concluding someone may be "mentally unwell" ? How do you work that out ?

Someone has been described as having a meltdown. How do you interpret that?
Note I said he might be unwell, not that he definitely was.

In the squatted villa at the top of Reilstrasse the other week, I saw a sticker depicting Bomber Harris and the slogan "deine jammern stolz mich an" - "your moaning makes me proud".
does opposing the stupid effect of BDS on Israeli music equate to an anti-Deutcshe meltdown? (not that I'm defending his music or any other statements) didn't see owt wrong with his tweets on this.Does Alec Empire count as 'commentariat' now?

it's Alec Empire being a complete dick, if you knew nothing about him / what was happening in the twitspat, why bother with daft mental health related conjecture ?

Why the fuck are people discussing Alec fucking Empire
Apparently someone heard that their mate's brother saw Laurie Penny at an Atari Teenage Riot gig once.
