Nobody asked for this. But here’s a thread of outfits I’ve seen Björk in. I think. Some records are… hazy.

Booked for Dina Martina in Nov! Have always missed out before because she sells out.

I want to live and die in a Strawberries & Cream Doctor Pepper (Liquid Battenberg) echo-chamber.

The Coca-Cola Freestyle machine is an echo chamber. Good luck finding nuanced debates about hot button issues on that touch screen. It’s just soda names and flavored syrups

Caroline choosing to go villainous because of perceived slights and wrong-doings she’s made up in her head? Creating divisions and trying to stoke hatred?

Typical UKIP/Reform mentality TBH.

The thing about Liverpool is… it’s quite camp. Not even in just a gay way. Just, like, Camp.

Good for Liverpool.

Almost tried black pudding today. But chickened out. The texture… the smell… it’s a no for me.

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.

"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."
