Worth watching, interview with Lavrov:

The T-shirt came today by registered mail. It was not manufactured in Belgium, as I initially suspected, but in Bangladesh. There is nothing to complain about. L is a bit bigger, but I see that it fits. I like the front and the back very much. And of course the 'charcoal' look of the fabric fits even better when the days are long and the nights are short. The care instructions are only printed. They could fade over time. You have to know that frequent washing harms the tissue. So if washing, then only in 'easy -care' or even 'fine wash' on the left with a low number of spin. I still have my T-shirt from December 2014 and I am proud of it.

Yeah well, I don't use headphones (too close, too much danger of tinnitus), my speakers are pretty good at home, but: the sound systems in cinemas are usually a little bigger and better...
I am 99% certain that it is quite a listening experience. (No idea how much tickets are though.)

I find this a strange concept that I can't wrap my head around. I can wear good quality headphones, lay back at home at a time of my choosing and close my eyes. Why would I pay extra money to sit in a less comfortable seat, at a time specified by the cinema (that may not be as convenient for me).  If someone has insight about the appeal please do share as I can't see it

Excellent news! Let us know how it looks on you. 

Received the shipping notification today. It should be there in a week at the latest. Now everything will still be good. 

Thanks to Stella and everyone who was involved. 🎄

I have been revisiting the Bloodflowers album. I'm loving it more than I think I ever have before. Such a beautiful atmosphere that resonates with me in a similar way to Songs of a Lost World.

Hey, I posted it first, so it's all about ME!   

But really, you'd think I as a person were the "sum of all my experiences", but sometimes I'm just not... 

Is like if he looked at my life and wrote it for me...
