British comedian Russell Brand has posted a video denying “serious criminal allegations” set to be made against him in an upcoming television program....
Good stuff and thank you, I’ll definitely give this a watch.
I was in my late teens and early 20s when Brand was selling my age group a bohemian lifestyle. I’m not the type to idolize, but a lot of what he said did resonate with me in a “Mom: we have Bill Hicks at home” sort of way.
I remember Charlie Brooker criticizing him for prancing around the student loan protests in the early 2010s and started to lose respect for him from there on.
It’s been difficult to watch his gradual (and recently, expedient) decline since those early days, as he’s a genuinely witty and charismatic person who has frequently said quite touching and soul-bearing things. All of that said, none of this news surprises me, in fact, it felt inevitable.
Seems to me a lot of people here pretty hostile to Joe. I can only say he has been more than open and interacted with good faith with guests that I listen to than anyone in “media”. His talk with Bernie Sanders and his agreement with certain aspects of Sanders agenda should dismiss the claim that he’s a libertarian shill. I try to approach him as a topic in good faith as well.
He’s being called a neandertal because he seems to agree with a lot of fringe opinions. I try to think of how I would react if talking to a person who I have no idea about their area of expertise and how I would deal with claims that they make. Sure he gives a voice to cranks, but he also gives voice to people across the spectrum, some that I actually want other people to hear from. That’s kind of what free speech is about right there.
Alright, Google domains are now dying. Where are you moving your domains? Cloudflare? WordPress Com? AWS? Namecheap? Something else? It must be reliable with hardware 2FA. Please comment below. TIA. #google
@nixCraft My domains are managed by Neocities (my website), Flounder (my gemini capsule), and Ionos (@X_Industries' website). In the future, I'd like to move them to 1984 Hosting, which uses FreeDNS.
