Mexico City

Ten days into feels like many years in Mexico City. Perhaps I am alone in this sensation, but when I try and pinpoint what it is that is slowing the clock I become heavy with realisation. 
The Original P.U.B.E. never really succeeded in rearing its ugly head, although I did  conveniently manage to form a page, and determine my own domain. For the name.
It is here where I will Attempt to exhibit the adventures from my new adventure, Perhaps a more major provincial / urban contrast. Despite this, I will not be changing the name, in order to keep things spicy, and keep the P.U.B.E.  followers appeased.

The new Universities Minister Chris Skidmore has a dubious past

British Prime Minister Theresa May has appointed a new Universities Minister. It comes as the old one, Sam Gyimah, stepped down in protest of May’s Brexit plan, which he described as a ‘deal in name only’. Chris Skidmore will be the minister taking over the responsibility for decision making when it comes to Britain’s universities, science, research and innovation. He’s arrived to save the day! And it’s a rather mammoth amount of responsibility he’ll have- will he do a good job of it? Well, he’s only held the post for one day, so we’ve not got much to go on, apart from his voting history as the Conservative MP for Kingswood. Unfortunately, it’s not looking very good- particularly for those of whom he will be taking responsibility for- namely, the university students. In the past, Skidmore has voted against a number of rulings in the house of commons. He voted to scrap the Education maintenance Allowance, which supports students from low income families as they go into ...

X-Rated: Summa-C*M Laude

We are nearing that time of year again, when students bound up in coursework are released onto the streets in their black caps and gowns. That’s right folks, it is time for many hardworking scholars to graduate to level three, the real world. Graduation is a funny time. It’s an archaic ceremony where students are encouraged to pay through their teeth for a mortarboard and cloak, so that they can pretend to be Harry Potter when they collect their degree. Maybe there’ll be tears, most will be relieved it’s all over- and some will be lamenting their poor procrastination habits that left them both penniless and degreeless. On the other end of the spectrum, those in the top quartile of their class will receive high honors for their hard work. These honors are just as archaic as the graduation ceremony- those in the top 10% of their class will graduate with a summa cum laude. This is a latin phrase, meaning ‘with the highest honour’. But one student had their success censored,...

A Camel and a Half

A bunch of beauty contestants in Saudi Arabia have got the double-hump, after being disqualified from a beauty pageant. Why were they ejected from the competition? Well, they were accused of receiving Botox injections to make them more attractive. But what’s so weird about that? It’s curious, because the botoxed beauties were not people, per se, but camels. Saudi media reports that a veterinarian was caught synthetically altering the appearance of a caravan of camels; injecting the four legged friends with silicon, as well as surgically reducing the size of their ears. Apparently, camels with larger, more prominent features are considered more beautiful, And the most beautiful camel can win up to 57 million dollars. Clearly, a lot is at stake here. The business of camel beauty in Saudi Arabia, can be rather lucrative if the camel in question has long lips and a muscular demeanor. But as well as being in clear violation of animal rights, the alterations are against t...
