Bookgazing: Questions - I have a lot of them →
bookgazing:
Why are so many of us (alright me) so worried about being clingy/a drag on other people’s time that we work excessively hard to make sure we’re at the opposite end of the universe from demanding? Is it because we’re just really aware how busy life is and how much everyone has to do? Is it because…

quietroomineedyounow said: Wonderful photos :) One of my housemates is from Bath so hopefully I’ll be able to go there over summer, I didn’t realise how pretty it is.
Definitely do visit! It’s a gorgeous city - and especially worth visiting in nice weather, as there are tons of parks and squares full of cafés and quirky tea places.

DR have had a lot of success lately, with that and Forbrytelsen and Broen, all of which have had a female main character. NRK interviewed the leader of the drama department in DR and she said they are, quote "tired of strong women" unquote and that the writers are "begging" to get to write about men. She says...

– How to Lie with Statistics.
Although it’s only ever happened twice in a three months period, the possibility of xenophobic abuse from random members of the public is by far the most stressful thing about my job. Thanks to Mr Cameron, today or tomorrow or in a week’s time there might be...

Girl cooties: they're in my head
You know what’s really crappy? That every time I have the impulse to tweet/post about something very stereotypically “girly”, I catch myself holding back, feeling self-conscious, second-guessing myself, and generally retracting in embarrassment - even though I REALLY DO KNOW BETTER. As an experiment, I’m going to actively counter this tendency whenever I catch myself at it....
