'To the uninitiated Western ear, his discography might look like a series of ‘world music’ experiments - but to view his work as a collection of eclectic jams is to misunderstand. Diabaté was not a tourist in these genres. He was a diplomat.'

My wife & I have been in a 15 yr game of that's what she said. At parents' evening the teacher was telling us how this next term will require lots of studying so will be long & hard. We both looked at each other & couldn't keep a straight face. Teacher clearly thinks we are cunts

it's crazy that 500 years ago, you would see the ruler of your country maybe once in your life and hear whispers that they're the Sun God, but now with social media, you get to see on a daily basis that they're the most unhinged, idiotic, and unhappy person you know

The Department of Transport is failing to implement the legislation that was passed only last year to introduce a default 30km/h speed limit. Their excuse, that it is hard to define an urban road, is laughable.

This is so gorgeous. And seeing her overwhelmed with emotion at the end and be hugged protectively by big blokes is beautiful icing on the gorgeous song cake
"Musicians from London, New York, Mexico, and Nigeria came together and fully gave themselves to a song written by and for trans people. When the session ended, I broke down in tears and we all hugged—some of us were crying too. Something powerful happened that day." m.youtube.com/watch?v=bdjC...
