    stephenabbott: Amazing G2 front cover today to promote the Guardian music interview with Björk We love Björk (via GuardianMusic): Coconut water I love it so much! It’s the most alkaline thing you can find and I use it for everything. Did you know you can have a total blood transfusion with it? Nutritionally, it’s the only thing you could survive on alone! Just that and you’d be getting all you need. Handy to know for when one is stuck on a desert island.
