Our World doesn’t Work

So, just a quick one.
Basically, if there’s a fuel crisis, prices are rising and we’re supposed to be acting to halt massive amounts of pollution and waste, shouldn’t the petrochemical companies be losing lots of money as we halt their ability to grow and screw the world up.
The opposite is happening.
Surely this means something is [...]

Busy Courgettes

Courgettes swiftly became my favourite vegetables after I started cooking with them. So easy, and they’ve got great texture.
You can’t complain about a courgette, not least because they look vaguely rude but friendly, and the word rolls of the tongue in a similar fashion.
I’ve got some waiting to be added to the pot shortly. I [...]

Yoyo

Can’t take this constant shifting.
Don’t know what to deal with.
Everything is finding new ways to suck.
Not that bad really, but I have to make a big deal.

She stared.
I waited, my eyes softened and I found it hard to focus.
I had to maintain eye contact though. This was important. This meant something.
Something in her eyes [...]

And if everybody jumped off a cliff would you do that too?

Sure. Sounds fun. If everyone else is doing it. Why would I want to be left out?
Ahem.
Yeah. She started it.

In other news, I’m sad and lost but I don’t want to talk about it. At least not yet. However, I am also falling head over heels in awe with Miranda July. Possibly the loveliest stuff [...]

Declare Independence - Linguobatics

One way you can tell a subject is particularly contentious is if you see me taking two sides of the argument on two separate occasions. Especially if I’m the one starting the argument each time and I’m the most vociferous each time.
Particularly when I still can’t decide where I stand.
And especially when I change [...]
