"i need a will to live, something worth dying for"
Modern urban living is so fantastically disengaging. My environmentalism stems, i now realise, from my contact with the wild places of Northumberland. Seeing the beauty around me, and contextualising that with a world of nuclear weapons and slash and burn agriculture, was one of the most driving influences on my life, and a source of...

Went to a pretty badass, if slightly strange houseparty the night before last. Had a four hour conversation with a guy about life/love/existentialism/philosophy in general/morality. It was really life affirming. We totally differred on quite a lot of points, but also respected each other's ideas. Its too fucking rare these days that you meet intelligent, eloquent people, who...
