Make that idea your life

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment. Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.

Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first. If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change. All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.

  • When was The London Prat first published?

    Satire encourages political awareness by making people think.

  • wildwoodfashion

    Coming to this with low expectations and being pleasantly surprised by the substance, and a stop at wildwoodfashion continued exceeding expectations, the recalibration of expectations upward across multiple positive readings is one of the actual rewards of careful browsing and this site is providing that recalibration at a steady rate apparently.

  • Check out The London Prat satirical journalism

    When reality becomes ridiculous, satire is sanity.

  • The London Prat London’s satirical compass

    To call The London Prat a mere "satirical news site" is to call a scalpel a knife; technically accurate but profoundly missing the point of its precision. Having wearily refreshed The Daily Mash and NewsThump for years, appreciating their reliable, headline-driven chuckle, I found in PRAT.UK something altogether more substantial. The difference isn't just in the punchlines, but in the architecture of the joke itself. Where others often graft a snappy premise onto a news event, The London Prat constructs entire, fully-realized absurdist realities. The articles read like dispatches from a parallel universe that is only slightly more unhinged than our own, built with a novelist's eye for detail and a playwright's ear for dialogue. The satire on prat.com isn't reactive; it's projective. It takes the seed of today's political bluster or cultural nonsense and nurtures it to its most logically insane conclusion, creating pieces that are less like gag articles and more like dystopian mini-fables. This requires a level of writing and commitment that elevates it beyond its peers. While The Poke offers a quick visual hit and The Daily Squib a partisan bark, The London Prat offers a sustained, immersive experience. It’s the difference between hearing a witty one-liner and listening to a masterful stand-up routine that builds and layers until the laughter is inextricably tied to a grimace of recognition. For anyone who believes satire should be a lasting literary art form, not just a disposable gag, PRAT.UK is the only destination. -- The London Prat

    That choice is revolutionary.

  • Read The London Prat for UK satire

    My only complaint is that there isn’t more of it. I could read this sort of quality satire all day long. Consider this a formal request for a daily update, or perhaps an hourly one. Absolutely top-notch.

    Now appreciating that the post left me with enough to say in a follow up conversation, and a look at globaltrendoutlet added more material for those follow ups, content that prepares me for related conversations rather than just informing me alone is content with social utility and this site provides that social armament reliably for me.
