Their true genius is recruiting maxi-dress-wearing middle-class women in branded hi-vis vests to direct traffic with benevolent smiles. Good luck making that work in Shropshire. It isn't about vegan scones—we want guts and glory!

They have two choices: embrace the living-museum model with actual thespians, or force us serfs to shuffle past a culturally uncomfortable post-industrial ruin and charge £4.50 for a slice of lukewarm Victoria sponge.

People have genuine ancestral connections to places like this. We don’t want a sanitized plaque. We want the heat, the stench, the sweat. We want history to slap us in the face. Instead, the National Trust is wringing its hands.

Been playing a lot of bad art notes for the past few years, trying to work out if it hurts more to quit or carry on. I have absolutely zero opportunities in my failed art career. It has gone from being my livelihood to now just a very expensive hobby.

If you hit a wrong note, it’s the next note that you play that determines if it’s good or bad.

Artists now have no concerns about instantly selling out with no idea of critical thinking. It's not ai which is a concern it's the brain dead living artists.

Horrible to hear this, solidarity 💯

Artists are now acting like independent coffee shops all which all have their slightly different nuances. Look at me selling at you because what you want I have, I'm slightly different than the other coffee shop down the road but similar enough you won't get scared. Pair me, group me, thrill me.

Few years ago some of the green movements were wanting higher tariffs to curb imports to reduce emissions and shorted supply chains. Not sure how they're feeling now.

if you get interviewed as an artist you should answer all questions with a question, but if you're going for a job you really shouldn't do that.

Idea for a film called "it's no one's birthday" A conceptual artist has an idea to meet a person born on each day of the year. Until they struggle to find anyone born on one particular date. After this goes viral on the internet it builds a cult following until someone finds a person born on that

I saw our neighbour walking a dog. They don't have a dog so I asked if it was a new acquisition, She turned to me and said no, it's a Frenchie.

Told someone today they go on holiday more than judith chalmers, a big mistake. They couldn't even understand the concept of a travel programme on TV.
