My name is Popi,

Alien, me


This is a Blog about my life as a cosmically insignificant, yet smiley human being.
Here you will most likely find the everyday happenings of my life coupled with my passions for Human rights, astronomy, crafting, science fiction, humanism, left wing politics, feminism and general feel good rhetoric.

Im a free-lance journalist and writer, and I adore anything that even vaguely resembles an adventure; I want to travel the globe telling untold stories, and seeing the unseen sights. I have an eternal love for Japanese culture and you can catch my monthly column in NEO magazine!

I am studying for my astronomy and planetary science degree, because our universe is magnificent and I have unyielding love for physics, maths, and curiosity<3

I also work for the amazing Cyberdog here in sunny ole' Brighton! Spreading sci-fi inspired swag through-out the galaxy!!

I spent a large portion of my life trying to convince people I was alot less ridiculous then I looked, but in the end I gave up and got a blog.

Anonymous asked: A friend of mine knows you quite well, We were talking about you and she told me you don't ever wear bra's, I was just wondering why?? xxxx

I must say, this is a really weird question, and that’s saying something considering some of the questions I get…

Firstly I do wear A bra occasionally, like I have some sparkly ones and stuff and if its a certain outfit sometimes I do.

But ok, no, day to day I don’t wear a bra, and really why does it matter? I just don’t really like how they feel! Also I’m a 32 DD and in England I can barely ever find bra’s in my size I actually like.

Try it, you’ll feel freeeee

What an astonishing thing a book is. It’s a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you’re inside the mind of another person, maybe somebody dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, an author is speaking clearly and silently inside your head, directly to you. Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions, binding together people who never knew each other, citizens of distant epochs. Books break the shackles of time. A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.

Love Carl Sagen. Everything he said was so deep and insightful…“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.” -Carl Sagen

White people get mad when you wear a band t shirt of a band you don’t listen to, but they’re fine with wearing headdresses from cultures they know and care nothing about.

This is exactly how my roommate Asha makes people understand cultural appropriation!

In honor of Karl Marx’s 195th birthday, artist Ottmar Hörl placed 500 statues of the bearded thinker throughout his hometown of Tier, Germany. The miniature Marx men were all the same size and shape, yet all cast in different shades of red.
