Comment on Identity Labels: How do we use them? by Andy Mort

Yeah, absolutely right, Denise. There are so many labels, and many of them totally justified. But it is just so easy to slip into using them as an excuse for anti-social behaviour and for settling for a sub-standard version of ourselves rather than using the recognition of them as a rung on a ladder out of what could be when unidentified, a limiting factor in our development. Thanks for your thoughts!

I can think of a ton of labels. Even just having adhd can cause people to place you into a stereotype. I agree with using labels simple to understand ourselves rather than use it as an excuse. That understanding will help you become whatever you want in life because it you’re openly acknowledging your strengths and weaknesses and acting accordingly.

Spot on Andy – Labour’s ‘victory’ is all but a hollow one. The low turn out demonstrates the failure of the main stream political parties to engage with the public and translate that into active votes.

Thanks Rob! Yeah, it’s a total misreading of the situation. When you look at the crazy low turnout nothing more needs to be said. I’m sure he knows…

Great post sir. Absolutely agree, and interesting that Miliband thanked voters for trusting labour. Um… no. As you say, do come down to earth Ed, there’s a good chap.

Your comment on multi-/single-functional devices (razors) is reminiscent of one of the principles of Permaculture: “Every design element should have multiple functions, multiple uses.” Good stuff, as always. Your take on things is so positive, so encouraging. Keep it up

That ad is so poor. It feels 80s and makes Chrysler look lame… so sleep east, brothers.

Loving the new format of this podcast. I was never a fan of the features on the previous incarnation. The podcast is now quality over quantity. Great music, interspersed with chat which is funny, intelligent and thought provoking.
