Dis Clam ‘ere
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.

A Lone – Not so bad?
That’s me cuddling a snake. My glasses are always that wonky. #FACT I realise that I’m probably just going through a weird state of mind, but it occurred to me last night that I might be alone forever, and that … Continue reading

Freizeit- The Kindness of Strangers
It’s a little weird. Hard to get used to how far you can get on the kindness of strangers, with only the tiniest bit of language ability. It’s also terrifying. I have been weirdly isolated at times, but it’s pretty … Continue reading
Declaring Dependence
So, I’ve recently been feeling a little out of myself. Or rather, quite in myself, but unable to reach out of myself. Trouble communicating. Even though I’ve been writing a shed load for nano (still barely ahead of schedule, but … Continue reading

What a Fucken Creep
Amanda Palmer rumbling around a noisy bar playing creep on a Uke. There’s better audio available elsewhere, but there’s something gorgeous about the environment and the wandering. And the way people actually shut up sometimes. And then get involved. Right. … Continue reading

The Moth Reaching Quiet
Ok, it’s not proper content, but it’s the first meme I’ve liked the look of in a long time. And it allows me to introduce Geekwrestler, who I stole this from. I don’t actually know much about Geekwrestler, but I … Continue reading

On Consumption – Love, the Universe, a Hairy Thing
Okay, so first, a little thing I wrote in my notepad a month or so ago whilst drunk on a train down to Torquay. Just needed to do something creative, and thought I’d ponder some of my more pathetic/romantic sensibilities. … Continue reading

Nowt so Queer as Folk
Lots going on. Sorry I haven’t posted forever. The big news, the scary news? You want it? Don’t misinterpret me though, I insist. Essentially, the other night I broke up with someone because they weren’t comfortable with my gender identity. … Continue reading
Talking to a brick wall – Conversations with a Younger Self
There are many ways in which I want to plug Kate Beaton. Wait, let me start again, without the unintentional innuendo. Kate Beaton is clearly the coolest thing to ever happen. I’ve been wanting to explain this for a while, … Continue reading

Sexduality
So, I’ve written about this before, kinda. Anyway, I’m writing, because I’ve got something to write about, and it’s not misery-centric, and it mightbe interesting, and my stats have plummeted, and I’ve stopped paying attention. This gives me motivation to … Continue reading

S’late
It is. Shouldn’t be writing but the urge is grabbing me. I think I’m just trying to put off making the bed. It’s a task I hate, despite the rewards. Clean sheets, cosy wrap, and that neatness of building a … Continue reading

Violent Dreams and Hard Times Waking
I’m run down. Tired and lacking in energy. Just when things were looking a little bit up at work, and I could’ve done with a break to let that idea settle, I went all festival for the weekend, which was … Continue reading

A Theoretical Upper Limit to the Density of Experience
I bear the emotional, physical and mental scars of a densely packed weekend. It feels like I squeezed the usual events of a month into about three-four days, to the point where I’m no longer sure how much time has … Continue reading

Too Much Information – Smells and Hair
So, I’m a smelly person. This has been pointed out to me by strangers and co-workers. This is a constant source of self esteem issues for me. The awareness that even if I look pretty and am charming,there is a … Continue reading
