Am enjoying listening to economist Mariana Mazzucato challenging Jeremy Hunt’s innate smooth superiority. #Radio4 Start the Week.

Loving the new-to-me photography of Fred Herzog (1930-2018), German-born but who spent his career in Vancouver, Canada. Reminiscent of the great Saul Leiter, although with an eye of his own.

Fascinating thread this. No irony lost that those platforms which have tried to engineer their platforms towards politically toxic content, or have been flooded with AI content are seeing the biggest decline.

Writing, writing… #WomenWriters “Never didactic, she would begin sentences with ‘As you’ll know…’ before coming out with chunks of erudition which would act as a jumping off point for our discussions. And then I’d scurry home and follow up privately on all her leads because I usually didn’t know”.

Sometime ago I was on here looking for a probation officer who was working in 2010 in the UK and who also might have worked with prisoners pre release. I can’t remember who got in touch but if there is anyone who fits the bill, pls get in touch. It’s for a book, Many thanks. Please repost ;)

The documentary photography of working-class people that gets published tends to show people looking pitiable and/or threatening. We try to challenge that a bit, and Carmina Ripollés is one of the photographers who helps us. Here's her fabulous festive portfolio: thebeemagazine.com/when-were-sm...

Do photographs of working-class people have to be sombre, serious and vaguely threatening? Not if Carmina Ripollès is taking the pictures, they don’t. Here’s her show of smiles from the past year to c...

Suspect some female Tory MPs are quietly dying inside at this. When you’re so desperate to get in a bit of gratuitous foreigner-bashing that you find yourself arguing *against* preventative strategies that try to prevent sexual violence, ffs, what have you become?

I did. All my friends questioned why on earth I’d do such a thing. I told them it was because the Bench needed more people like me. If you think the same, do it too.

THREAD. A Deconstruction Of Ladybird's Well-Loved Tales Books, 1964-74. You will find the analysis of these beloved books in the alt text below. 1. The Gingerbread Boy.
The Gingerbread Boy is perhaps not quite the most folk horror of all the Well-Loved Tales, but it surely has the most folk horror cover, with darkness springing from its every corner. For example:
1. At least one of those cottages in the background has to be seriously haunted
2. What has the nasty little syrup-based fucker just been up to?
3. Palpable aura of marital unrest.
4. Poisonous/possibly hallucinogenic weeds in the foreground.
5. Face in the tree in the background, and the fence post.
6. Looks bucolic but you just know it’s the fashion in which they’ve framed it and there’s some godawful executive new builds just out of shot, which some evil property developer bulldozed a few badger setts and hedgehog homes while constructing. Probably some torn-up porn mags in the woods behind that spooky tree, too.
7. What are the buttons on the Gingerbread Boy’s invisible shirt made of? They don’t quite seem to be chocolate or raisins. Could they in fact be THE EYES OF HIS VICTIMS?
