harry knowing the lyrics to niall's albums, harry dancing along to niall's songs, harry doing little claps to match the bridge of heaven, harry jumping during black and white, harry arriving at the venue right after doors, he really is one of us, he really is a lover, such fan behaviour from him today
"If rest becomes a form of recovery from work, as is the case today, it loses its specific ontological value. It no longer represents an independent, higher form of existence and degenerates into a derivative of work. Today's compulsion of production perpetuates work and thus eliminates that sacred silence. Life becomes entirely profane, desecrated."
I think so much about the food people ate pre-Columbian exchange. Huge parts of cuisine extremely important on both sides of the pond just didn't exist.
You've probably heard a little about what was brought over from the New World, corn, potatoes, cocoa, cassava, peanuts, chili peppers, avocadoes, cranberries, pumpkins, and the like. Imagine cooking without chili! Without potatoes! Modern Indian cuisine contains enormous amounts of potatoes and we just didn't have those for the vast majority of history. The best of the nightshades all on one contiguous hunk of land. Hell, tomatoes! Almost forgot about those.
But we don't often look at what the Old World had. Wheat! Barley! Rice! A profusion of incredible grains, really, the finest poaceae has to offer. Carrots! Tons of rosaceous plants like apples and cherries and pears and peaches and apricots! Grapes! Soy and Bamboo! Okra and watermelon! All these things were simply never found in the Americas. The grains one is the wildest for me, the variety of grains available across Eurasia and Africa was truly astounding.
You know what binds together the food of all cultures across the world? Onions. Onions are fucking everywhere. There's probably onions growing near you right now. Allium Gang Unite.
BBC proclaiming Louis Tomlinson a god on a live TV interview and his face going soft and shy for a moment is simultaneously funny and sweet and the least he deserves and also nowhere near as much as he deserves
Glastonbury Festival-goers are set to miss out on watching England’s latest match in the Euros - yet One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson came prepared.
England’s men’s football team secured its place in the Euros round of 16, with them kicking off their match at 5pm today. However, the game clashes with performances from some of the iconic festival’s top names. Glastonbury made the decision to not show any of the Euros matches, so attendees will need to try and stream the games on their own devices - a potentially challenging task at Worthy Farm.
However, singer Louis headed to Glastonbury fully prepared as he took along his own TV so he could catch all the action. A group was snapped by The Mirror huddled around a TV getting ready for the match. They had the screen set up next to their camp and got the beers in ready to watch England take on Slovakia. It was confirmed to be Louis Tomlinson and his group of mates after One Direction hairstylist Louise Teasdale also posted a snap
“The festival has refused to screen it anywhere, saying it didn’t want to interfere with the live performances. So frustrated festivalgoers may want to head over to a camping field near a certain big red and blue tent, where some visionary has set up a flatscreen telly.”
