Alabaster Crippens doesn't entirely believe in objective truth, therefore he can neither confirm or deny the accuracy of any statement, image or impression caused by, or displayed on, these pages of the so called 'internet'. He does however not want to get sued, even if the lawyers, legal system, and the concept of jurisprudence doesn't exist. Therefore if you believe the nonsense posted on here you do so entirely at your own risk. In other words: Don't sue me 'cause I might not mean it. Basically, anything you hear from anyone is unreliable, so if you want the 'truth' you need the perspectives of as many people as you can get..ideally people who are trustworthy and close to the particular 'truth' you wish to inspect. If you start trusting idiots with silly (and obviously made up) names then you're developing some kind of problem. Check your sources, examine their own politcal (or other) motivation, remember that anything people say is opinion unless you are certain that they speak the 'truth'. Even your own eyes can lie. Trust me on that one. Or don't..it doesn't bother me. Finally, everything written here is, to the best of my knowledge written by me and I reserve my right to be recognised as the author of these works. Any input from other sources should be clearly shown, if you note a mistake or anything..tell me..I'll try and sort out the problem. Please ask me if you want to use anything for commercial reasons...I probably won't mind but I need to know I'm not supporting anything I don't want to support. This is an attempt at a legal notice written without legal knowledge. Just follow the principles, I think most of you get what I mean, even if it won't stand up in a court of law. Just be polite you know...like in the good ole days.

Day…Today…Indeed
I had a day today. Not quite finished it yet, but I thought I’d jot some thoughts down as I’ve been quiet for a coupla days. I got practically no sleep, with what I did get performed entirely in stops … Continue reading

Who’s reality is it anyway? – The Case of the Missing America (and the damn lies)
So, this could be long, and it might actually even be a two parter, as I want to get back to Brighton soon. Unfortunately I want to start writing now. I had a wonderful new year…including Ska and Mountains and … Continue reading

Today I shall mostly be talking about…History – and probably getting it wrong, but who cares.

“Life ain’t Nothing but Bitches and Money” – A half arsed discussion of Psychoanalytic and Marxist Criticism
God…that title looks boring. Anyway, basically, I’m going to do a half arsed version of an essay I’ve been intending to do for ages. But because its Sunday, I’m not going to do any research, and I’m probably going to … Continue reading

Want to post but have to focus on Nano and other things. Too busy to write anything real but want to give you something good. Raincoaster saves the day with an ‘inspirational’ (possibly demotivational…depends on your character type more than … Continue reading
