Artists have always loved to sketch!

Some 3,500 years ago in Egypt, artists used flakes of limestone as sketchpads!

Tactical voting in Gorton & Denton means voting Green to stop Reform, not Labour. It’s between the Greens and the fascists.
Reform 39
Greens 34
Labour 21
But it is more than that. The Greens offer positive policies and hope for the future. Labour & Reform just more of the same-old-same-old.

You’ve probably forgotten you’re following him because he’s been mercifully silent, but he’s trying to come back, so this may be a good time to unfollow (or just block him)

apropos of nothing in particular, @lilashapiro.bsky.social gave us a tremendous piece of journalism last year, and it's always a great time to revisit it and thank her for the work she did in bringing these stories to light.

In Anglo-Saxon architecture, Roman stone meets a timber way of thinking: stone becomes articulated into the Saxon timber-centric world view. I suppose, in this way, it is also a memory as well as a material. Here at All Saints', Earls Barton. 📸 my own.

Neil Gaiman is crawling out of his bog two years after sexual assault allegations to play the sweet old fantasy uncle again -- complete with name-dropping that book you like & his twee "make good art" catchphrase -- all in order to (of course) sell you his upcoming book. Don't you dare fall for it.

I think an extremely funny angle that should be considered is that flailing Labour strategists had bet on Zack standing in Gorton, prepared a whole attack strategy based around it, and what we’re seeing is its wrenching last minute alteration into “how dare he not be the candidate there”

You need to be pretty repellent to push both Green AND Reform votes up when your baseline is Keir Starmer - but Wes Streeting manages it.

Labour party chair says Zack Polanski ‘cowardly’ for not fighting Gorton by-election – politics live
The party is trying to shift conversation after the NEC blocked Andy Burnham from fighting the seat
Good morning and welcome to our live coverage of UK politics. The Labour party has accused the Green party leader Zack Polanski of being cowardly for not standing in the Gorton and Denton byelection on 26 February.
In an interview with The Observer, the Labour party’s chair, Anna Turley, said the fact Salford-born Polanski did not stand showed the Greens lacked “confidence” to do so. Continue reading...

Hexham Abbey's #SaxonSunday crypt is part of Wilfrid's original church of c. 674, conceived as a shrine to contain relics he brought from Rome and elsewhere.
Church may have been entirely built from #Roman #SundayStonework from nearby Corbridge, much in evidence in the crypt.

I legit fear for the overall game literacy of new junior designers in the coming years for various reasons and a big part of that is just, a lack of idiosyncratic games in many diets that aren't, like, tied to insidious monetization loops.

"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy"
Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.
