Never underestimate hatred of women, specifically women of colour. The already diminishing rights of women and their bodies are to be further annihilated. What a sad day for the United States and the world.

Run and don’t fucking walk to John Boyne’s Elements series. Water, Earth, the newly released Fire and now DESPERATELY awaited Air. Each I devoured in no more than 3 days, and good Christ did I scatter birds from trees with my visceral reactions to the conclusion of Fire.

Sweet Christ, jumped into the car only to hear ABC Classic playing Aphex Twin’s Avril 14th. 💔

How, HOW?!?! Have I only watched Say Anything after reading Ione Skye’s book?! My heart is about to EXPLODE. John CUSACK!!!

Why is it that ABC Classic always manages to dance on your heartstrings when feeling unbearably low? Gutteral sobs at this beautiful arrangement. I feel as if I’m in a stirring Victorian drama, bonus points as it’s currently pouring rain. Beautiful piece from Peter Gregson.

Want to share in my well of despair? Go ahead. Thanks Peter Gregson, to quote Les Miserables “struck to the bone in a moment of breathless delight”. open.spotify.com/track/2Cd1m3ci…

There has never and will never be a more perfect casting than Matthew Macfadyen as Fitzwilliam Darcy in Joe Wright’s flawless 2005 adaptation of Pride & Prejudice. NEVER.

Fantastic news from my Smith Family child, Sapphire’s family is now in a position they no longer need the program! I’ve been her sponsor for 6 years. Her first letter to me, her mother included that they couldn’t afford her school shoes.

It’s a national disgrace that in this prosperous day and age services such as the Smith Family even have to exist. I will now be sponsoring another. This child is 7 years old. 7.

There’s an all consuming, radiating ache of shame from disadvantage. When you’ve not got food, books, a backpack, pencils, or wear worn clothes and shoes. Children should not be crushed by the weight of poverty.

Ohhhhh ahaahhahaahahaahahahaahha #auspol

HELP! I’VE READ 4 David Sedaris BOOKS THIS WEEK AND CANNOT STOP. Turns out he cleans his local littered roadsides of his own volition. There’s nothing I LOATHE more than people who litter. Lazy, disrespectful and selfish. What’s most concerning is it’s usually alcohol.

Immediate firing squad for anyone who plays videos, music or phone calls on speakerphone in public. Fucking hell

Popstars S1 and 2 was peak Australian culture and television. Change my mind
