EXCELSIOR is the second solo album by British musician LOLZ Coombes.

How long before Trump goes "You're fired" (preferably before cameras) on a cabinet member?

would not 'truly free' capitalism allow for monopolies? eliminate child labor laws? absolve environmental disasters? where is the line drawn? who draws it and who would 'interpret' it?

are there any other pop songs that rhyme "sandals" with "candles"? I feel like there must be, but I can't think of one.

Your candles burned out long before
Your sandals ever did

is that a direct ref to the classic mother teresa gag at the time tho

I've always had problems with heights and even working on tower scaffolds and scissor lifts for over a decade never really cured it. Fucking love terra firma, man.
Once I was told not to leave site until I had got a chandelier cable to the apex of a church dome before the painters came in that weekend. it involved going up an illegal tower scaffold built onto the top of a big scaffolding structure with lots jutting steel poles that would skewer you if fell. One of the painters felt sorry for me and said gimme your drill I'll do it. He did an absolute abortion of a job, fucking etch-a-sketch type wiring. I told him thanks but it was fucking dog rough and I'll probably get pumped for this on Monday, but at least I'm alive!
He said "wait until it has been painted, you won't notice it". When I returned on monday it still looked fucking pez with a layer of paint and I got a massive fucking and it actually ruined my reputation at that company. But I'm still glad I didn't do it.

My view on the identity/class divide is that both sides are equally planks that complement each other and the left should try, as much as possible, to unite.
