27: Pyramid Scheme
Hipster Barbie and Aliens
Hello internet friends,
autumn is upon us, it is rainy, grey and cold where I am. (I write, conveniently ignoring the fact that it’s going to be bloody warm again in a few days. 30°C in Mid-September? That’s just silly.)

Remember Socality Barbie? The Instagram account that mocked basically everything on Social Media? Now there is real Barbie and sadly nothing of it is satire.
Burning Man. Where Pokémon Go and Class Warfare meet. What a slogan.
Toodles!
