I’ve started using Dutch in 3 Months, by Hugo. Ignoring the timeframe the title gives, it seems decent because it has an app alongside it for hearing the pronunciations of each word, so you learn to speak and read essentially at the same time.
I got my book online.
Seems to me that these days, with a lot of issues fragmented in our society, different bands tend to focus on certain issues - although there are some exceptions, yet this is also just based off what I’ve noticed.
Bob Vylan has been making the rounds, Kendrick Lamar has also been outspoken on some injustices over the years. Lambrini Girls focus on sexism in a rather angry manner. IDLES have some songs regarding frustration with aspects of society, however they’re not as detailed in their messages yet they still provide the energy for them.
Kneecap have been speaking about the situation in Palestine in a rather political manner, and have great pride for Ireland - they sing mainly in an Irish language, however great energy for the message.
If you go a bit further you have Bloodywood, an Indian metal/hard rock band focusing on various issues (I think one of their songs talks about punching rapists in the face).
Just some off the top of my head. They’re out there for sure.
It’s the initials of me and my ex wife, with a small design around it. We got matching ones.
Never get a spouses name tattooed. I was told not to, and I should have listened. This was 13 years ago and I will be finally getting around to it this year.
a tattoo, and I didn’t even pay for it.
The reason it’s a waste is because it’ll cost £5-600 for a decent cover up. Essentially I got this to cover up… Terrible decision.
I have a variety of tattoos, and I only regret one of them. Still proud of the others decades later.
I save up for the Netherlands. There are enough places to just get a peace of mind, away from people, with a nice spliff and no one to bother me about it.
I’ve been three times within the span of a year, and will be going back in a few months.
You can never be too serious about skincare.
I have a small hammer I use, to lightly chip away at the wall tiles to provide both exfoliation, a back scratcher, and acupuncture all in one.
Pardon my language, though I heard this in an interview with Jimmy Carr, and it rather highlights this for me quite well:
I’m paraphrasing, though it was something like “if you’ve seen five cunts before noon, you’re the cunt”.
Seeing kids smile, hearing them laugh. Like, if I’m on the bus and I hear a baby laughing, with those early crackly chuckles they get, it just taps into something within me and brightens my mood. Very difficult to frown with such pure happiness around.
There are a few cannabis related ones, though activity is here or there on one or two. UK420, THCTalk, ICMag, GrowCity, etc.
When they get too long, the industry sells the hairs to Hollywood, for various props like long beards.
I don’t get to meet anyone famous, though Sir Ian McKellen said thanks once or three times.
I straighten below hairs for Japanese adult entertainment employees. Usually a Philips does the job, however for some folks I’ve had to whip out the ironing board. It’s a tough job.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island.
To get the hidden multiplayer mini-game screen (if you have a second controller you can play with a friend): at the map screen, hold Select and press X X Y B A.
My mate Tim. He has no political experience, however he has some rad ideas.
Ive always spent a bit extra for a certain brand of eggs, which I prefer, so I haven’t noticed a great deal of difference if I’m honest.
Can’t be skimping on good egg.
I have heard that this is more true for some people in Tijuana.
And people think I’m mad for saying ‘thank you’ to my toaster!
I mean, I probably am, but that’s besides the point I think!
… How did you get rid of the wasps? Or is it a ‘they live here now, Bob’s the king of section 3-b’ sort of thing?
I mean, my grandfather would probably have said they deserved worse.
