Documenting what I've learnt through letters to my son, Reg.
It's baffling to me that liking free speech has become synonymous with being 'far right' in the UK.
ME: I think free speech should be defended
THEM: Oh so you're a racist bigot

THEM: That's totally what a racist bigot would say, you fucking racist bigot
Most of my life lonf beliefs have been taken round the back and shot over the last 4 years.

If someone were to stop me in the street and ask, "are you happy right now?"
I'd answer "fuck no".
However, when I manage to zoom out even just a little bit, I concede I'm the happiest I've ever been.
Parenting is an absolute mind bender. The parallels to Bitcoin are also hard to miss.
