Turkey Bans Twitter
I'm guessing it will take another week before CNN catches on to actual news since it doesn't involve the plane.

So yeah, fascism in Turkey... pretty cool.

Replacing Participants in Ongoing Game
I am using WebDiplomacy as a teaching tool. After having started four games, I am hoping to substitute participants in my place in each game. How can I do this? Thanks in advance

Bingo tax cuts and a penny off on pint
Guess who I'll be voting for next May?
In truth I'm still undecided, but if they bring in allowances for whippets and flat caps, they'll have my vote. I don't feel patronised at all. What other measures aimed at the working classes would make you vote Tory?

Personality types (Myers-Briggs)
All you diplomats I'm sure must be interested in how people in the real world think. I ran across this a few months ago and it's really cool to look up comparisons between types and read about certain types. At first I was scared of something along the lines of a horoscope but I was very pleasantly surprised.

Since I Feel Bad Telling People to Shut the Fuck Up
Here's a thread. If you're like me and have that Bible shit muted because you don't give a damn what "god" thinks, it'll be the only one on your forum bar because they won't shut up in there.

But I'm not telling them to, I'm just making another thread.

Movie night with Gunfighter
Last night, I watched "Taxi Driver" (1976) and "Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb" (1964) back-to-back.

Both movies were absolutely incredible (spoilers within)

It was nothing at all to do with paedophilia .... it was about old songs. Look at you taking yourself all serious and getting high and mighty, talk about abuse of power. What tickles your fancy as a subject:-
1) Rape & Murder in Libya
2) War & Genocide
3) Racism amongst the US Middle Classes
All fascinating topics I'm sure but nowhere near as meaningful as songs from the 70s .... get a life you saddo !!

I saw Rick Astley perform this song in a club called Legends in Manchester back in the day - it was 3 weeks before it made number 1 in the UK, I nearly twatted him because he was taking up valuable time on the dancefloor.
30 years later he is rich and famous and I am still telling people that anecdote - what a pathetic life I have lived :-)

Lyrics
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green:
And was the holy Lamb of God,
On England's pleasant pastures seen!

And did the Countenance Divine,
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here,
Among these dark Satanic Mills?

Bring me my Bow of burning gold;
Bring me my Arrows of desire:
Bring me my Spear: O clouds unfold!
Bring me my Chariot of fire!

I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my Sword sleep in my hand:
Till we have built Jerusalem,
In England's green & pleasant Land

I thank you.......

Referendum in Crimea
Well, as predicted, the result of the Crimean referendum went strongly in favour of the option of leaving Ukraine and applying to become part of Russia. The US, EU and others have denounced the poll as illegal, but it appears that the majority of people living in Crimea genuinely want to join Russia. So, what now?
