New Laura Marling song! It was lurking on the Interweb in a tiny facebook video. Despite facebook compressing the hell out of it, the audio is not too bad - I will try to source a higher quality version but in the meantime you can download it at preytonone.com. This must be the song ‘Nouel’, I’ve spelled it like that because I think it’s about or inspired by Nouel Riel. Lyrics are below. Laura references the famous painting L'Origine du monde. If you look it up, be aware that it’s NSFW! —————————————- Nouel: She sings along to a sailor’s song in a dress that she made. When she’s gone, sing along but it doesn’t sound the same. Oh Nouel, you sing so well. Sing only for me. Fickle and changeable, the word may always be. She speaks a word and it gently turns to perfect metaphor. She likes to say: “I only play when I know what I’m playing for”. Oh Nouel, you know me well and I didn’t even show you the scar. Fickle and changeable, semper femina. I pulled a thorn, from her tiny paw. Her feet were unclean. Fetch water, bless it twice and hand the sponge to me. I’d do well to serve Nouel, whatever service I may be. Fickle and changeable, weighing down on me. She would like to be the kind of free a woman still can’t be: alone. How I wish that I could hit the switch that keeps you from getting gone. Oh Nouel, it must hurt like hell when you’re so afraid to die. Semper femina, so where am I? She lays herself across the bed; L'Origine du monde. Slight of shoulder, long in leg and her hair a faded blonde. Oh Nouel, you sit so well, a thousand artists’ muse. You will be anything you choose. Fickle and changeable are you and long may that continue. —————————————- EDIT: changed my embarrassing “armchairs” line to the correct lyrics lol. Many thanks to pattysimcoxforcarnivalqueen for helping out :)

It may be worth mentioning in this context that, in addition to what those of us in the US would normally think of as “not white”, there’s a longstanding trend in racist thought (not only among Brits, mind) to exclude Eastern Europeans, people from near the Mediterranean, and ethnic minorities like the Saami—this goes back to the roots of racist ideologies, when early theorists divide things up so that certain ethnicities were “more” white than others. When racists talk about making “Britain white”, they’re definitely including Eastern Europeans.

please vote hillary this november. please. I’m begging you. I don’t care how much you wanted bernie to win, I don’t care how much you dislike hillary for whatever reason, I don’t care. please don’t abstain from voting. please vote hillary. brexit has proven the unthinkable can happen because of fear and prejudice and I know we all want to think there’s no way trump can actually win but guys, if you don’t go out and vote hillary in november, he can and he will.

please.

as much as its fun to laugh at these brexit memes i don’t want anyone to forget how serious this actually is. i have one of my housemates crying in my room bc her career relied on the uk being a part of the eu (she wanted to go into foreign diplomacy). my mum is freaking out because the uk basically just put xenophobia and racism ahead of its own interests and she doesn’t know what that means for her immigrant self, or her british born foreign children. my brother-in-law who works for a french company is terrified that his job won’t be there tomorrow. i’m living in the netherlands rn and the pound has plummeted so much that the money i budgeted at the start of this month is no longer enough for me to make rent and eat. this is just the beginning and this is only how brexit is effecting one singular person (me). i can’t even imagine the wider damage this is gonna cause.
