The Hugh Lane has now been closed for a year (out of a projected 3 years), yet no work on the surrounding library has started. It feels like this will take as long as building a children's hospital, in the meantime a generation of kids won't have the same access to the art they are studying.

Was talking to someone and Palantir came up and they said “I bought them at 20 a share, now they were worth 200” And i said “they are extremely evil“ And they go “oh i agree, but a good investment“ Then i had a vision of us all drowning in the river of slime from ghostbusters II.
