Excruciating - Ricky Gervais Meets Gary Shandling

 

I have much admiration for @rickygervais' obviously genuine animal rights activism, so I didn't want to like this @deep_beige article as much as I did. The petulant conflating of "criticism" & "censorship" by highly privileged people is beyond tiresome https://t.co/N2jOEJ6RrC

I always remember Ricky Gervais banging on about animal welfare as five hundred infant mammals were genocided in Gaza in 2014. If we can't respect human welfare I don't think animals are going to take a higher importance, and believe me I'm not happy about factory farming methods at all.

When Glen Greenwald tweeted the above I read the article first and saw a lot that resonated with me. I then searched for the episode of Rickey Gervais meets.., that it refers to and it's one of the most excruciating interviews I've ever come across, though I suspect Gary Shandling is a Zionist Supremacist, because even I can think of no reason that Ricky Gervais is hostile to Jews.

That said, Gary Shandling taught me an awful lot in a short space of time. I particularly like his words on bravery and courage. 

Doing things that scare us are mostly rewarded by the universe.

V - PARTY mixed by FKC

I'm not really a House Music fan these days but I was on a fairly long cycle ride recently and couldn't be bothered to stop and change the streaming music I use to discover new sounds. 

This set turned out to be very good in a short space of time though it starts off with a cliched track.

Evelyn Rothschild Talks About Forecasting The Weather For Profit

I've no idea if the Rothschilds can manipulate the weather. I do know that when the media starts bleating anti Semitic conspiracy theories that there's usually some basis for more investigation.

Incidentally Evelyn (French House) is less of a fanatical Zionist than his cousin Jacob (English House). He is also married to Lynn De Rothschild who I emailed recently to confirm or deny some rumours. She didn't reply which corresponds with the gossip about her quitting Twitter.

Not that it matters to anyone but me, but I am deleting my Twitter app after this last tweet;to think that Russians have been using all of us to sow discord & destroy America is repulsive to me & I refuse to take part;the hate & anger on #Twitter is out of control;#GoodbyeTwitter

Just saying.
