The Lost Legend Of British Boxing - #RIP The Thomas A Becket (320 #OldKentRoad, South #London, #SE1) 🥊⏳🍻
#RIP to a legend in the boxing world. This pub once hosted an almighty boxing gym that saw and produced world-class fighters. As well as this, the pub was a chance for local people to earn a few bob or even make themselves wealthy. Just like the Docklands of East London, this area of South London was made up of dock workers living in pre/post war England. The people of south London's Docklands had next to nothing other than each other, be it for better or for worse. Generations of #Londoners witnessed the massive changes that saw them move out to suburbs like #Kent, leaving this once proud area to become hyper-modernized.

Only the shamelessly selfish are persistently unreliable. The type of people who you can't plan around, look forward to seeing, or even trust upon their word because they're not only oblivious to your wants, needs, and efforts, but care nothing for the pain or disappointment they cause unless it directly affects themselves.

It's never that they're too busy, but that they're too busy for you.

Class has far less to do with wealth than it does to do with honour.

Less Is More:
The less people you have in any one place, the more of a community, the more housing, the more security, the more of a culture, and most importantly, the more happiness that you and your loved one's will have.
It really is that simple.

I'd like to offer my deepest condolences to all of the women around the world who so desperately crave me. Whilst you carry this great burden, live in the knowledge that I respect and notice your pain. Remember, you're only human, after all.

Life is made up of three things. Love, pain, and all of the things that cause them.

A large reason we love objects isn't just because of what they do but because some items represent chapters of our lives that seem to close once gone.

Something people hate just as much as uneccessery change is being told that they have to accept it.

When so-called academics claim that #KarlMarx believed this or that, they're talking utter rubbish. Marx didn't believe a word "he wrote." He was creating a form of controlled opposition to the capitalism he and his ilk were living off. If he, Engels, and the army of hidden names hadn't commissioned it, then real, natural opposition would have occoured, and they can't be having that now can they. There is no #Communism, only a vessel of #Capitalism. Since then, "capitalistic" governments have changed regimes and carried out wars all thanks to the guise of an optical illusion.

To be ungrateful towards anyone who makes an effort is to be undeserving of anything at all.

People are so used to economic lies that they've been led to believe that a miserable world of depressive, oppressive modernity makes us happy when in fact it's doing the complete opposite

The bridge that a few opposing generals want to protect is the same bridge that countless soldiers would prefer be destroyed.
