I went to a festival last weekend. My back is fucked, a friend tore a ligament in her knee, and I have bronchitis. WE ARE TOO OLD FOR THAT SHIT. (I'm 23).

Singapore is amazing! But there is definitely the occasional... scent. It seemed to be a type of fruit that is sold in Chinatown (durian i think?) and some of the traditional herbs. That smell repelled me in the heat. But of course the city is crazy clean so it’s really only when you walk past some stalls. :)

Unfortunately, when Mugabe dies at age 167, whichever Zanu-PF deputy or army general is the most powerful will take over. And all will be the same :/

“Tummy”

I was banned from commenting on Huckabee’s Facebook page last week after pointing out he is a champion for an admitted child molester. I regret nothing.

Can’t marry Samwell as he is in love with Jon Snow.

I’m trying to learn spanish and this correction stopped me questioning my entire life. Thanks :D

They just look so happy. <3

So accurate on SA :/

For books, I second The Martian and Station Eleven. If you’re open to trying fantasy, maybe Zoo City by Lauren Beukes. YA: Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell.

Your nails look AMAZING! What brand of polish is that?

My mother is the type of person who says this. Sometimes while tapping on a hard surface with her long, long fingernails....

Omg omg! Troy and Ana in the moooorning

Thanks, I'll definitely have a listen to that! It's fascinating how the teaching of history reflects different societies, and then goes on to help create people like the Young Republicans in your class. They would die of horror if they'd been in my history classes at school :')

US textbooks give credit to... Reagan ? For ending the Cold War ? That's actually a perspective I never came across as a non-US history student. The more you know, I guess.

That link is so so horrifying. They have an article in which they blame the death of a baby girl, who was shaken to death by her father (the father is now a convicted murderer) on vaccines. I want to vomit, and also take away the author's internet connection forever.

Thanks! Jez commenters always have great book recommendations- I'll give this a try. :)

Question, is Sylvia Day good? I've been put off by the covers, which look exactly like the 50 Shades trilogy.

I did this EXACT thing when I was about 8- with the same reasoning that the hair would just.. not be there afterward. My family called it my "fuzzy patch" for the year+ it took to regrow.

True!
