I don't think we talk enough about the genius of Damon Albarn- not just the things he does, but mostly the methods by which he does them www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucRu...

I strongly feel this for music too. I first encountered this brilliant attitude at the @blurfanclub.bsky.social and have replicated it across my choral singing sphere as it is often much needed there. (Image stolen from @snowythepyro.bsky.social on another platform)

A black and white image of a racehorse with text below reading

Potoooooooo
British thoroughbred racehorse

Potoooooooo or variations of Pot-8-Os (1773 - November 1800) was an 18th-century thoroughbred racehorse who won over 25 races and placed higher than some of the most prominent racehorses of his time. He went on to be an important sire, whose leading runners included Epsom Derby winners Waxy, Champion, and Tyrant. He is best known for the unusual spelling of his name, pronounced Potatoes.
