"I’ve never understood…" ‘Debate’ between one actor who performs not understanding basics, and another who performatively "knows" everything. But doesn’t Rees-Mogg think his power and status are the natural outcome of his ‘sovereign individuality’? If so, to him, Carlson is likely just a stooge.

You have to Share, these days, or you’ll be Left Behind. You even to Share your own stuff with Yourself. Because every instance of you asking the question "why am I being forced to share my own stuff with myself" is a step closer to you throwing up your hands and sharing everything with Them.

It needs a bit of scale. Tiny screens are a curse, there, obv. I’ve taken a lot of shots over the years, using wide angle lens to contextualise an object/incident in the top quarter with a wide, deep foreground. It often seems like a good way to convey the feel of the encounter in life.

‘Crablight’ Drawing 2024. Info in alt text. #art #artist #drawing #graphicart #contemporaryart #conceptualart #artsky #astronomy #cosmos #metaphysics #science #nature
'Crablight' - Andrew Stones 2024.
Drawing, details follow.

Hand-drawn digital image, square format. Predominantly bright green and black marks on green-black background. Areas of the image are flecked like a freeze-frame from low-quality videotape.

One of a series of drawings featuring cloud-like, vaporous objects.

'Crablight' features a band of uneven, hazy light green, running diagonally across the picture field from lower left, containing irregular, brighter patches and tendrils. This much is suggestive of a space telescope image of a celestial object or region, with certain emissions colourised in green tones.

At three points along the main vaporous object, black, claw-like forms appear to partially encircle it. These are distinct in character from the grainy softness of the underlying cloud.

The drawing plays with the ambiguity of scientific images in which the objects shown cannot be tested for objective veracity by appealing to widely-lived experience. It does so, specifically, by mixing elements that could plausibly be from modern astronomical imaging (galactic clouds) with subjective or capricious ones (giant claws).

Title, artist signature and date are handwritten along the bottom of the image.

Nice one! Drawn by the flecks of golden light, I nevertheless missed the boat until I full-screened on an ipad.

Get all your stuff off those platforms! Or: post fewer/no pics of friends, family, events; lie, obfuscate, joke or leave blanks in profile details; use false phone nos, don’t store payment methods; remove any you’ve forgotten. Reduce app usage, use a privacy-customisable browser where poss.
