why can’t you do backless? I feel like you’d look as flawless as usual?
Well firstly, thank-you! Aw, I feel like one of those people who wanna make a teary speech but get ushered off the stage too quickly.
And really, it’s just…I dunno. I’m a firm believer in “If you like it,...

If I fall in love with one more dress online only to find it has cut-outs/is backless.
I am not some light & fine-haired thing, okay, the world is already asking too much of me when something is shorter than my ankles.

It’s 11.35am. I was supposed to have washed my hair, painted my nails, and finished my revision mind-maps for One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest by now. I’ve been lying in bed for two hours, alternating between croaking at my laptop every time the volume takes me by surprise, and sneezing out half my body weight.

What Kelly Rowland sang: I was in an abusive relationship. He was both emotionally and physically abusive. He was mentally manipulative, turning me against my best friend/sister and telling me she was the last person in the world who loved me. I was feeling low at a time when she was doing really well and that led to some feelings of jealousy and devalued self-worth, especially when I felt like there was nobody I could talk to about it. But when I did let her know what was happening, she was right there by my side.
What the blogs report: KELLY ADMITS SHE WAS JEALOUS OF BEYONCE IN ANGRY, CURSE-LADEN RANT SHE DIDN'T EVEN WRITE; SHE'S A HATER.

I had what I’m sure was the equivalent of one half of a teaspoon of alcohol during that Scandal drinking game twenty minutes ago, and I’ve already remembered why I don’t like drinking.

So what I’m getting from this is that I’m Taylor Swift and you’re Marlon Brando.
Exactly. It was only a matter of time before the world knew.

comment about how romantic comedies (media in general) normalise male agression as grand romantic gestures and how it ties in to society’s perception of the ‘right’ type of masculinity
i.e
if you kiss me when i’m talking to shut me up i will probably bite your tongue off or knee you in the balls

Wait, was that reeeeeeeeeally Olivia’s plan? I just…something about that doesn’t sit well with me. I get the discussion of race blowing the party wide open thing, sure, but using an accusation of racism to potentially bring Mellie down just doesn’t seem like her kind of thinking.
I dunno, I was a little disappointed. I think it’s because I called the...

bitchwhoisyou:
the responses to kelly rowland’s new song are pissing me the fuck off.
she just revealed about how she was in an abusive relationship and the emotional hardships she went through, which included some negative feelings she had about beyoncé.
but y’all just wanna be messy and make statuses about how “kelly finally admitted what we all knew, she was salty as fuck...

flannery-culp said: There’s five million famous people from Mitcham including Noel Fielding and John Donne. Your classmates suck.
Right? I always think they’re gonna be like, “Ooohhh, yeah, I know there”, but unless they’re near South London, the closest bet I have is referencing Croydon or Wimbledon.
I only just realised I live about 15 minutes away from where M.I.A did. And she went to the high school I was about to until my mum found out they didn’t offer a sixth form. I have no idea why this feels so satisfying to know, but I think it’s something to do with the fact nobody’s ever heard of the little bit where I’m from. Whenever I tell people at uni I’m from...

Part of why I love M.I.A.’s music so much is because you can hear shades of all the music she would’ve been exposed to as a Tamil refugee brought up on a council estate in West London. Like Tamil film music, dancehall, 80s hip-hop, baile funk, samba, post-punk, etc. It’s the sound of being caught between all these different cultures and languages and just making something new...
I’m craving aam papad like nothing else right now. Ugh, stuff like this is so much easier to handle in London.

the “natural beauty” garbage is so fucking galling
it’s bullshit disingenuous rejection of responsibility for patriarchal beauty standards
it hides yet another performance standard: never let us SEE what we are doing to you

Boasting that you know more about someone’s culture than they do when you don’t belong that culture makes you an asshole
Not having a connection, knowledge and a complicated relationship with your culture can be painful, taunting someone about that fact is fucked up
