WE ARE FINALLY back with the fifth instalment of our popular series, Talking Points, after a very long hiatus, and this week, we’re looking at the concepts of core values, false ideals, and hyperreality.
Clemency and I first began discussing a collaboration nearly six years ago, sometime in 2018. Little did we know that a worldwide pandemic was looming, which would soon put everything on hold.
Most of us don’t worry about getting vitamin D when the weather’s warm and the sun is shining. But as winter approaches, accompanied by overcast days and long nights, you may be wondering if it could be useful to take a vitamin D supplement – and what benefit it might have.
Anthony Bourdain once said, “Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”
WE’VE ALL SEEN them before: internet aphorisms⏤those pithy observations containing a general truth⏤floating about on Instagram and tumblr. They encapsulate commonly shared sentiments, observations, or offer pieces of advice, and we sometimes repost them or save them because we relate to them, and sometimes they make us think about things in a different light.
THERE ARE over 41,000 comments here at TIG. From strangers and friends, followers and readers⏤they are all legitimate, expressing thoughts, asking questions, leaving compliments, making connections...
When most people think of fitness, they focus on strength, endurance, and cardiovascular health. While these are important aspects of fitness, many neglect the crucial role of flexibility. Flexibility is the ability to move your joints through their full range of motion, and it’s often the key to achieving your fitness goals.
Last week we looked at some tips to kickstart your fitness routine. This week we will look at an essential component for reaching your fitness goals: nutrition. Whatever your fitness goals might be whether you are trying to build strength, improve your cardiovascular system, lose weight, or gain muscle you will need to integrate a nutritional plan to help you reach your goals.
Getting started with exercise can be one of the most rewarding decisions you make for your health and well-being. Regular exercise has been shown to improve mood, increase energy levels, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, and promote longevity.
One of the most-asked questions is about my beauty and makeup routine. My skincare regimen changes with the seasons, with less makeup and rich moisturisers in the summertime, and the opposite in the winter. It's especially important to care for your skin in the wintertime because the cold, dry air can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry, itchy, and more susceptible to cracking and irritation.
Nearly two months ago, on April 26,2022, it was announced that Elon Musk was buying Twitter. Upon hearing the news, we immediately deleted the Belgrave Crescent Twitter account. Of course, the last time we’d tweeted anything there was in 2017 so it wasn’t being used anyway, but we thought it was a good time to finally make it official.
REMEMBER, HE WORKS FOR YOU, he's not doing you a favour―he's offering a service. It's the night before my first hair appointment since lockdown began in March, and P is coaching me to speak up for myself at the salon tomorrow so that I get what I want. There is a reason why he feels the need to do this, as I have a long history of disastrous hair appointments ...
When we booked our trip to London for the second week of December, we had no idea that a new variant was about to rage through the city and quickly become the dominant strain. We were both double-vaccinated, but were still very cautious and wondered if we should get the booster vaccination before we left.
WE ARE BACK with the second instalment of our new series, Talking Points, and in this edition, we’ll be looking at the relationship between the body and mind; the notion of Mass Fame, and the concept of temporal neutrality.
I try to read as many books as possible when I’m not working (currently it’s David Hume’s A Treatise of Human Nature), but a lot of the time, all I have time for are work-related articles.
