A-Levels & GCSE results
The right decision, teacher grades aren't always perfect but no other option was fair or viable. As a pupil who has the privilege of going to a very good state school (I deffo wouldn't have got awarded B in Maths if I came from a deprived area, I only got 39% in the prelim/mocks) what is worrying some of us is that the huge increase in pass rate (in Higher its gone up by something like 14%) will increase competition for university places and jobs and potentially cause employers to disregard results from this year. In a normal year my Higher grades alone would probably be enough to get me into Uni, one of my friends the same age as me is starting next month but now the advanced Highers are more important than ever.

Levitating (feat. Madonna & Missy Elliot) • Remix
I listened again and the first verse is not bad but it feels like the production actually goes DOWN in the chorus :lol:

Levitating (feat. Madonna & Missy Elliot) • Remix
I heard the first few bars and thought 'we're in for a f***ing treat' and then...the other 3 minutes happened. Honestly, what are they thinking pushing this as a single? The production is fine for maybe 30 seconds but completely one-note, it doesn't progress at all. Where's the melody :( I didn't think Madge sounded great either oops, Missy gave a good verse but the production ruined that as well. The sheer monotoneness. This is exactly it :lol: It's like a random remix chucked out as part of a Singles EP. I can't believe Hallucinate was doing so promisingly with no Hot Hits and it'll be sidelined for this, hopefully it'll still get pushed. I hope this remix album doesn't put a dampener on the whole era :(

Should Scotland get an indyref2?
The increased support for indy is lovely, but I can't help but worry it's all meaningless. Bojo has no reason to budge on Section 30, his 80 seat majority only includes 6 Scottish seats. I know he has no principles but i can't see him wanting there to even be the possibility of him being known as the PM who ended the union (ironically half of Tory voters would vote for England to be independent :'))

Should Scotland get an indyref2?
To be fair, right wing parties with nationalist rhetoric are doing well almost everywhere right? It's not a uniquely British problem, not like me to defend England lol but it's a Europe-wide problem. I'm not complaining but that seems weird to me, as the mood amongst my peers is about 2/3 anti-Indy (pro EU as well though). I do live in a Seat that voted 64% No though so shrug :lol:

Stonehaven Train Crash
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-nort...etland-53751678 Three people dead :( Just a 20 minute drive from my home, it's crazy. Thankfully no one else in hospital from this has serious injuries but still what a tragedy :( It's such a dark time for Aberdeen and the North-East right now. There's the local lockdown, which has caused several well loved local businesses to close permanently as they just couldn't cope anymore and all the job losses from that, the downturn in oil price which again threatens so many jobs here, we didn't properly recover from the last crash and now this.

Coronavirus Part 4
I think that's more for the younger years, by S6 most classes have less than 15 pupils in anyway. None of us here have a clue how it's gonna work lol, we're having an induction on Friday.

Coronavirus Part 4
In Scotland we’re meant to keep distance from staff and also social distance where possible, ie smaller class sizes and in the corridors.

Coronavirus Part 4
I know, but it wasn’t really enforced between teacher and pupil either.

Coronavirus Part 4
We have a local lockdown in Aberdeen and still barely anyone is social distancing eek. I went into school today for a meeting with my guidance and it wasn’t being enforced.

Spotify & Apple Music Chart Discussion
It’s ok to not like it, but not ok to $l*t shame or judge the women involved. I don’t remember your individual posts on the issue so I’m not saying you’ve done that but it definitely has been happening.

Spotify & Apple Music Chart Discussion
The only thing I slightly agree with Sammy on is that I don’t feel it’s always what the popstar wants, to be sexual. For example when Meghan Trainor did the NO video, that seemed very unnatural for her and more what her label wanted her to do. But for lots of singers it IS empowering, we only have to look at Cardi, Nicki, Bey, etc. They’re owning their sexuality and making the rules. I can only speak for myself but that empowers me and loads of other people I think. Stop shaming women for showing their body 2020 edition. Singing about the human body and the act of sex is not trashy. And as others have pointed out, Jason Derulo literally made a song called pussy (in Spanish), where was this OUTRAGE?

Is Witness a good album?
Commercially and critically Witness was a huge fall from grace for Katy but do we all feel the same? For me it's a good album, and better than Prism. Sure there's some inessentials like Into Me You See, Save As Draft, Bigger Than Me but lots of gems alongside the singles- Hey Hey Hey, Roulette, Power, Tsunami and Act My Age are all wig moments :cheeseblock: I think the branding of the album as purposeful pop damaged it because people were expecting a quasi-political opus and that didn't really happen.

I thought Cardi might end up having an Iggy second era so well done i guess. I'm not a huge fan but the song is a SERVE.
