Senses working overtime #217

Brain mush


Jewels is again slightly late this week - my brain was mush on Friday night (when I usually compile this thing). By Friday my brain had reached overload and it's a thing people! Here's the science behind that idea!

2 Viv Albertine



Wow - she's one bad motorfinger. Great seond hander though after Clothes etc. Recommended but not for the faint of heart - Viv is honest. About everything!

Sleep



Excellent design but not a pillow you'd want to speep with.

Yesterday


Is here. Gonna make an effort to see this one! It's currently playing in Waipukurau!

Sarah Bernhardt



The world's first celebrity was born 175 years ago.

Overtime: Walt

Time for some Song of Myself 4. As Austin Kleon says - 'a good poem for battling the onslaught of social media'.

Senses working overtime #202

Women power



The cover version I'm reading


After ditching the James Patterson novel (what was I thinking?), I've been reading Viv Albertine's Clothes Clothes Clothes Music Music Music Boys Boys Boys. Required reading for everyone on the planet!

2 John and Yoko
Fantastic to read that Viv was and is a big John and Yoko fan. Yoko has written many great female-centric songs (Women Power below and others) but in a week that had International Women's day, I've gone for Women Is The Nigger Of The World (even though it cuts off before the end of the song - the message is still relevant!)



Yoko
We didn't hear much from Yoko in the above clip, so here she is on her own...




4 Safety cycles
Did not realise the power that safe movement had for women.




Captain Marvel



Brie and Captain Marvel deliver the goods! 

Overtime Ending with Viv



Great article on her second volume of autobiography (To Throw Away Unopened) - now I need to find a copy of that to take home.
