Me: Sees superhero movies with the most ridiculous plots Also me: Refuses to pay money to see the new Sense and Sensibility because Colonel Brandon has a full beard and this is supposed to be 1811, not 1851

I don't really want to see images of the attacks today but I do want to remember how people responded and how this poster was all over the city in the fall and it was just so beautiful.

Milton Glaser's 2001 "I Love New York More Than Ever" with a singed heart icon representing the love. At the bottom of the poster it says. "Be generous. Your city needs you. This poster is not for sale." and is then signed Milton Glaser

Have been stressed with many big work projects coming due so The Person I Live With got me a Little Little Tony Leung to cheer me up. Now we can both stare morosely into the distance with all the cares of the world upon our shoulders. The only downside is that he does not come with a lit cigarette.

Once again, I would like to remind people that there is an experienced and trusted Downeaster who has previously stepped in to served Maine in a pinch. Why, during her short stint in DC, this former teacher saved cannery jobs AND Maine's glorious coastline from exploitation:

Posting with alt text and to say that if this country put as much energy into NHS reform as it did into transphobia we would have the best health care system in the world.

New health secretary James Murray says he would no longer say trans women are women
James Murray, who recently replaced Wes Streeting as health secretary after Streeting resigned so he could start campaigning to be the next Labour leader, has said he is “absolutely clear” that single-sex spaces within the NHS should be “protected on the basis of sex”.

He made the comment in an interview on the Today programme where he also said he would no longer use the phrase “trans women are women”.

Murray said he had thought “in quite some detail” about use of language when it was put to him that he had in the past stated that “trans women are women”. Asked if he had changed his mind, he replied:

Yeah, I have changed what I would say. I wouldn’t say that phrase any more.

And I think that, you know, over the last few years, I think a lot of us, myself included, have thought about this question in quite some detail.

The supreme court has obviously ruled very clearly that biological sex is what matters when it comes to the Equality Act, and determining the importance of single-sex spaces …

I believe that single-sex spaces should be protected on the basis of sex, on the basis of biological sex, whilst at the same time believing in dignity for trans people, recognising that sex and gender are different things, but being absolutely clear that single-sex spaces within the NHS, for instance, need to be protected on the basis of sex.

Spending the day reading about Gillian Ayres and her artwork went through so many styles but I am loving her giant painting period largely because it looks like she modelled it off overhead views of a laid-out tea table. (formal art historian descriptions yes sir) www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks...

Break-off by Gillian Ayres which is a large painting that features a gold rectangle, a pink rectangle outlined in black, two circles that look like the remnants of teacups, a tinier red circle, a slash of brown paint, and then some splotches of yellow, black, red and orange paint on a pale pinkish-white background

Just a note on the Met Gala: Yes, I too found the theme “fashion is art” theme too loosely defined BUT participants were asked not to come as cosplay of their favourite paintings. This is why I love the Lena Dunham dress inspired by Artemisia Gentileschi’s Judith Slaying Holofernes. (1/x)

So is that an aversion to postmodern architecture or the Docklands? I think it's unfair to conflate the two. There are some great examples of postmodern architecture in the Docklands but it's not the only place it exists in London.
