It still amazes me in 2019 that people need to be told of the lies of the establishment. It's their default setting, FFS. You can tell they're lying because their lips are moving! No internet superstar will change that. Doesn't matter how much truth or how many memes. The opposition is more concerned with winning than being right and will simply tune out anything that challenges their established narrative. It's evident here on THL with it's rhetoric on the mainstream media. Anything that challenges the narrative is liberal lefty propaganda. Anything that supports it is gospel turth that

No. It's still ongoing. Fox news ran with the story without fact checking.

Hard to say. His sister wrote a book and she describes the physical and sexual abuse inflicted by their parents. Both alchies. He said she said and all that as they stenuously deny the allegations but the sister claims it explains why Chris wanted to get away from everything. Agreed I'm the same. If you don't like your situation, change it. He was the living embodiment of that philosophy and good or bad he lived life on his own terms. If the allegations of his home life are true then that alone should be to his credit if nothing else. This is what polarizes opinion of him, espe

JFK was the youngest in his early 40's. Don was 70 though and that doesn't seem to have been an issue for America........

Pushing eighty.

Not seen the documentary but I'd read a little into his home life and it was full of abuse by all accounts and factored into his travels. The Alaskan stint of his journey certainly polarized opinions of him. His story is a sticky point for a lot of Alaskans. They see Krakauer's book romanticising as what happens when you ignore the 6P's and is essentially suicide through stupidity.

Full link if the above didn't work. It didn't for me.

I've had a couple of times I've jumped out of bed thinking I was late, realising I had the day off before I got the car out of the drive luckily. I have a colleague that will turn up for work on his day off at least 4 times a year. He's a f*ck*ng bellend.

The film is a pretty good adaptation IMHO. If you've enjoyed the book you'll probably enjoy the film too. Bonkers, or free spirit? Bit of both with decent slice of naivety thrown in for good measure. If you're looking at going off grid build up your skillset first, don't go full McCandless as they say!

True that. I tend to wait for the actual results rather than jump to a conclusion. Sounds like it actually might be wrapping up so who knows?
-
Thanks Mick! I love a good conspiracy but I don't know if I'm ready to read one of Icke's books yet. We get a lot of snow and power outtages here in the mountains but not that many...

Imagine if Corbyn got in and did it to TR? Careful what we wish for and all that!

That's a fair one I wouldn't know how they could compete with build quality but I was thinking more of the construction costs. Timber has to be cheaper but I can't imagine that the final price of the house will be much cheaper than a brick and mortar alternative.
-
Timber framed houses? Are they the way forward or is to increase profit margins?
-
No, that was just a conspiracy theory set out by the Illuminati.

It's official. American socialist icon Bernie Sanders has officially declared that he's running for commander in chief in 2020. He's raised around $5.9 million from more than 220,000 donors in the first 24 hours, which has trumped even the Donald at this point. Many of those donors are set up for recurring donations that are set to net $600,000 a month. Last time around there were allegations of hamstringing as despite Bernie's popularity with the American electorate as he conceded to Hillary Clinton despiting winning many of the primaries by a large margin. Looking at Hillary's disastero

Just out of curiosity. How many of these outrageously inflammatory headlines have effected your daily lives? I'm betting heavily on none. It's a real headscratcher being told to simultaneously disbelieve and believe the main stream media. I sincerely doubt that anyone is going to replacing mum and dad anytime soon and I'm firmly with Gnash's opening sentence. By acknowledging this sh*t you're giving it validity.
-
Opinion? He's a smart bloke but he's a complete crank. The two are mutually exclusive IMHO. His predictions are fully inline with most of recognised prophets since Nostradamus. He's says something vaguely enough that the individual can correlate his words with their perceived pattern of events. The Lizard people sh*t is just so far out there I won't even entertain it without substantial evidence. MickC posted a couple of links so lets do the 10 alleged predictions. Saville. Anyone that's worked anywhere near the BBC, or any of the hospitals that Saville was attached to knew he was

My understanding was that he was convicted of assaulting the police officer who intervened whilst he was beating his girlfriend. She was done for possession of cocaine. I didn't think he was actually convicted of domestic violence?

How many speeding tickets have to be issued for those fully decked out vans to be cost effective?

I'm curious as to who is saying she should be let back in?! What the actual f*ck?!

Fair one, TOMO, I was genuinely curious how you level the playing field in the eyes of THL's GT. The flip side of the English money argument is that other countries don't have as much but are able to field quality teams. Wales included. I don't see how that's an argument for unfairness. Plus I've just had my breakfast and it's snowing. I'm stuck in the house until the internet sh*ts out!
-
It was if you had a beard and were 4st heavier than your nearest prop! Joking aside though, with all this claim of unfairness what do you replace it with?
