My uncle woke up 20 mins into the game and has been providing me with commentary x100 better than the SBS commentators.

  • Him: Come on, Dortmund! Bloody Bavarians. Kill them!
  • Him: Oh, they knocked his head off and now they're playing football with it.
  • Him: Haven't seen a Bayern fan yet. [Literally a second later the camera backgrounds a single man dressed in red in a sea of yellow. We both laugh.] They're gonna kill him in a second!

4:30am and seven degrees. Why am I awake in such conditions on a Sunday morning? Being a good friend, of course. Have 50 blankets and a cup of tea, curled up on the couch, waiting for Dortmund v Munich to begin. This game means the world to my German friend (he goes to nearly every Dortmund game). I owe it to him to watch. I can just about hear his excitement over the ocean.

A seedling has sprouted in my bathroom sink! :’) Maybe he grew from a seed that was stuck between my teeth and washed down the drain when I brushed my teeth? Well anyway, however he got there, I feel mean ripping him out. He’s triumphed over adversity by germinating there! But then, I’m already having visions of him getting so big that he causes structural damage to the sink and eventually climbs to the sky like Jack’s famous beanstalk. And then my unce will ask, “Elena, why the hell is a beanstalk crashing out of the roof from your bathroom?” “Well, I was too attached to my happy little green friend so I didn’t want to rip him from his chosen home and now he’s a neighbourhood menace. Yolo.”

Everything about this is excellent! Try and find it a new home. Keep it on your windowsill and feed it every day. Apply some deep philosophical meaning to it and allow it to be your beacon through the tough times

Hahah, everything about this reply is excellent! :’) Thank you for your advice. I’ll heed it and do some soul-searching. Tomorrow is Operation: Save the Sink Seedling.

Unchanging - John Frusciante

Joe Banfi

Awesome. Vocals a bit like Robert Plant with the stirring atmosphere of a track by The Music, only scaled down to intimacy and more brooding. Very nice indeed.

She’s a Queen - Deadwax

Deadwax, from London, are influenced by The Beatles, Supergrass, Oasis, The Stone Roses, and BRMC.”

I hear Oasis. More specifically, I hear Liam. Otherwise, they remind me of a British Jet somehow.

"Many people do lack self-confidence, and there is certainly more pressure on women to be conscious of their own appearance than men, but is it really the case that women are more critical of that appearance than everyone else?

First of all, the whole entire world is critical of the way women look. Whether you are a supermodel, a teenager or even Secretary of State, if you’re a female, there are people all around you ready to tell you how bad your body looks. Secondly, the idea that women are valuable only for their beauty permeates nearly every facet of modern society, from the billboards we walk past to the social media we use daily. And this idea that women should be reduced to their appearance originated almost entirely in the minds and actions of men. And it is still largely perpetuated today by men – who run over 90% of our media.

So to say women are their own “worst critics” when it comes to beauty puts the blame on women for a beauty-obsessed, body-shaming and misogynistic world created and maintained largely by dudes."
