Not really serene. Consumer behaviour researcher. Barbadian in Scotland. Academic. Anti-racist. Football, cricket, basketball. Academic and random ramblings.

If FiFA don't push through their privatisation this round, they will do what the did with the "quarters'. They wanted it in '94 world cup got a no, waited till 2026 to rebrand as hydration breaks.

All because some Americans thought other countries had dictators, and they had the best republic in history. It is a banana republic with a good marketing communications strategy that republicwashed imperialism, racism and genocide under lofty "all men are created equal" language ...

Watched The Christopers last evening. It was absolutely the definition of art for me. Meaningful, touching well acted, for the most part. And reminded me what a fan I am of this absolutely brilliant, gorgeous actress. Swoon.

Most of the resistance to being 'cancelled' or accountability or 'people don't want to say anything cause everyone's just so sensitive these days' is just us not wanting to learn or progress. Some people really do revel in their ignorance.

Beyonce fans are absolutely crazy in love with her ... and she has so much fun fuelling their delusions. I am sure she is sitting somewhere, saying I wonder how this will influence their Act III predictions. I predict Rock x Destiny's Child. (The call is coming from inside the hive)
