"Those big words" comes from Ulysses: " I fear those big words, Stephen said, which make us so unhappy".
This forum promotes critical thinking, and attempts to see through murky language, the water that we swim in.

Media, Language, Politics and Public Service

This section is for discussing things in the news, in politics and on Public Service. The media do not always scrupulously separate fact and opinion, and we are all dependent on our sources of information to help us make sense of the world. We include Public Service here as there's a lot to say on the subject and no place for it in either contemporary politics or the media.

Economics

This is a section for trying to understand economics because much that is reported rests on assumptions not explained. I just want to explore the topic a bit

Art, Movies, Games, Literature, and Religion

We could have called it something vague like 'narratives' or 'inspirations', but we figured it's nice to discuss and recommend less pompous amusements, too.

Social Work

I decided to put this in a separate section because I realise it is not of interest to many: but it is important to me!!
