One Among the Fence.

Hi, my name is Fran, welcome to my online diary. And by diary I mean that thing in my handbag that I shove as much useless crap into as possible that I will never look at again, and make notes in that I won't live my life by. I fail at diarising apparently. Enjoy!

OMG I JUST HEARD MY NEIGHBOUR’S PARTNER GET OUT OF THE SHOWER AND SAY: “BRRR, IT’S COLD OUT HERE. THERE MUST BE SOME TORROS IN THE ATMOSPHERE.”

INCREDIBLE

Flash mob of a Haka. It always gets me. I remember going to footy games with my dad when the All Blacks played the Broncos and before a match commenced the All Blacks did the haka. And it was hot. Damn hot.

Also, completely correct me if I’m wrong, but New Zealand seems to have much more of an appreciation and recognition of its original inhabitants. Don’t children learn Maori in school? Meanwhile, in Australia, it took me forever to learn the original meaning of the street name Boundary Street — it seems so obvious now. Why weren’t we taught this? Well, I know why, but seriously. So much shame.

INCREDIBLE

I agree with all your points also. It’s saaad.

Blood Falls, a Natural Time Capsule Containing a Unique Ecosystem

This five-story, blood-red “waterfall” pours ever so slowly out of the Taylor Glacier in Antarctica’s McMurdo Dry Valley. Geologists first discovered the frozen waterfall in 1911, and believed the red color came from algae. Its true nature turned out to be more spectacular.

Roughly two million years ago, a small body of water containing an ancient community of microbes was sealed beneath the surface of the Taylor Glacier. Trapped below a thick layer of ice, the microbes have remained isolated inside a natural time capsule, in a place with no light, oxygen, or heat.

The trapped lake has very high salinity and is rich in iron, which gives the seepage its red color. A fissure in the glacier allows the microbial subglacial lake to flow out, forming the falls without contaminating the ecosystem within.

More photos of Blood Falls can be seen on Atlas Obscura

  • What Kelly Rowland sang: I was in an abusive relationship. He was both emotionally and physically abusive. He was mentally manipulative, turning me against my best friend/sister and telling me she was the last person in the world who loved me. I was feeling low at a time when she was doing really well and that led to some feelings of jealousy and devalued self-worth, especially when I felt like there was nobody I could talk to about it. But when I did let her know what was happening, she was right there by my side.
  • What the blogs report: KELLY ADMITS SHE WAS JEALOUS OF BEYONCE IN ANGRY, CURSE-LADEN RANT SHE DIDN'T EVEN WRITE; SHE'S A HATER.

this is actually disgusting.

Saw “THIS”?! They immediately dehumanized this woman and then further dehumanized her by stating they would rape her. Every one of these males. Rape was the first thing that came to mind. This is beyond disgusting.

Go on. Tell me rape culture isn’t real. Tell me how “Everyone knows rape is wrong.” 

Kill every one of these motherfuckers.
Brutally.

Yep just murder them pls

I hate when people try to tell me how much fat is in peanut butter or how much sugar is in yogurt or how many calories are in cheese. Like duhh there’s fat and sugar and calories in the food I eat, it’s what fuels my body. I’m not going to sit on the ground and eat twigs and dirt. The point is that I’m EATING my food in correct amounts, I’m not shoveling the entire production line of SKIPPY peanut butter down my throat and injecting yogurt into my veins. Chill out! AND YOUR STUPID LEAN CUISINE HAS A TON OF SODIUM.
