"The Loco-Motion" (Goffin-King) is notable for making three appearances in the American top 3, each in a different decade and by a different artist: in 1962 by Little Eva (U.S. #1); in 1974 by Grand Funk Railroad ( U.S.#1) and in 1988 by Kylie Minogue (U.S. #3). #littleeva #aldonmusic

I took some peripheral photos of the current state of the world around the Anglia Square demolition. And it happening as well. It’s still fascinating, all the shapes and lines and alignments of a slowly degrading piece of city opening up and showing a bare layered soul as the world walks by.

The arm of one beast through the arm of another. Very black and white. I’m posting these here because Instagram is so utterly fucking pointless for photographers.

Minor thing but I hate "helm" as a verb: it's a stupid word because it flattens meaning. It's a pompous catch-all word for "lead", but you can do better than that. I presume Watts will be directing this? If so, say "direct". Or maybe he's exec-producing? Idk, the stupid word "helm" doesn't tell you.

See, making young people’s lives better, improving their life chances and giving them more opportunities, *that* could be a ‘moral crusade’. Changing U.K. benefits for young people is just about saving rich people’s money.

80 hours of embroidery! This aerial landscape is directly inspired by Dartmoor and I'd say I have another 30-ish hours to go? I'm now starting to fill in the fields for the sheep, the tor area will be done last as I'm still deciding whether I want a slope or not 😅 I hope you like it! #art

The NHS is the greatest thing this country has dreamt up and delivered, I don’t think the politicians of today would have the courage or the fortitude to create it. We must protect it at all costs from the vultures who would love nothing more than to break it up and sell it off. Anyway that’s me.

A struggling SLY STALLONE sold his dog ‘Butkus’ for $40 to a stranger in front of a 7-Eleven because he was so broke he couldn't afford to adequately feed himself & his dog. After the screenplay for ROCKY (1976) was sold for $1million he bought Butkus back for $15,000.

90 years ago, Parliament responded to the rise of Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts by passing the Public Order Act, which banned political uniforms, private militias and the threat of force for political objects. The debates make very resonant reading today. Here's the Liberal Robert Bernays. (Short 🧵)

You cannot conduct a fair match when one side is playing with a ball and the other with bombs and, if democracy is to survive, it must be conducted according to definite and recognised rule. One of them is that no political party should resort to any weapon other than reason and argument. The introduction of private armies, as I see it, strikes at the root of democracy. I know it is contended that the Blackshirts are not armed and, therefore, are not an army, but I do not think that argument can be upheld. … Uniformed men in military formation suggest, and are meant to suggest, the idea of force. It is no argument to reply that at this or that demonstration no force is intended. It is an inescapable fact that a uniform in politics symbolises force, to be used either now or in the future.

I receive a commission request from Times Higher Education. I note that they do not pay contributors, and that their consideration in the contract is "promotion".

Four-panel The Oatmeal comic satirising requests for creative work in exchange for “exposure.” In the first panel, one character says, “Hello creative person! Thanks for making that thing!” The creator replies, “You’re welcome. Here’s an invoice.” In the second, the customer rejects it: “An invoice? Never mind that! You’re doing it for the EXPOSURE!” In the third, a hand gives the delighted creator a banknote labelled “EXPOSURE!” and says, “Here’s your EXPOSURE!” The creator replies, “Oh wow that’s a ton of EXPOSURE! Thank you!” In the final panel, captioned “LATER,” the creator tries to pay for food at a street cart with the exposure note, asking, “Do you accept these?” The vendor replies, “haha fuck no.”
