Let's talk about...

So you probably have heard that Rubina's* up for sale.
This is one of those issues that since spending time in India, I simply don't know what to think.
"Child actor's father sells her for half a mill" sounds terrible. Ultimate stage parent. But it's fucking India and they're from the fucking slums man. Maybe Rubina thinks it's a rad idea and is mustardly keen. She lives in a slum for crying out loud, she probably has a better relationship with her friends than with her father anyway.**
When you're in India you get used to seeing people do what they can for money. You don't like it, it doesn't fit in well in your western psyche. but it's not your country, it's not your culture, so you have to get over. It's not like he's selling her as a slave, and at least she would never come close to the path her character takes in the film (ie child prostitution at painfully young age.)
The dark side of the third world in incredibly hard to bear.


*as in Ali as in Slumdog star.
** profound apologies if this is not the case...

I wish we still had a tree house in our garden, then I could wrap myself in a blanket and sit in it and have a cigarette and watch the rain for a while.





here is a present for you

Time with me is wasted time...

If my cat wasn't curled up so lovlingly on my lap right now I would probably cry.

I have never so strongly felt the notion of time being wasted that I can never get back as I feel about the last week or so.

Blue, Bonobos

Today I went to the beach.
I lay on the sand and looked up at the sky and could see the dirt in my eyes.
There was a lot.
Do I have dirty eyes?
Dirty Eyes Dirty Mind.
Then I asked my brain to try and fathom how there could be so much blue in the world.

Now I'm very tired and I had a fight with my mum tonight so I'm sad.

sigh.


Did you know, Bonobo Monkeys have a special way of easing tension. When they feel a conflict coming on, they HAVE SEX.

Imagine if humans were like this.
