ian huntley is dead. i'll always remember how the british press attempted to incite hatred against the trans community by reporting he was transitioning, then apologised to him for incorrect reporting instead of apologising to trans people

In a sensible, parallel universe, this would have been the replacement for Wogan following cancellation of Eldorado

Little known fact that Justine Frischmann was actually seeing Pam St Clement and Damon Albarn at the same time, which provided inspiration for several early Suede and Blur songs.

The above list of people in a photo together from January 1994

Suede’s best lineup: Brett Anderson (vocals), Bernard Butler (guitar), Mat Osman (bass), Simon Gilbert (drums), Stephen Fry (euphonium), Ian McKellen (kazoo), Pam St Clement (vibes).

First cup of tea: I’d shake hands with it but that would mean I would spill it.

Ink drawing with pencil colours on dark pink paper. In the foreground there's a flat, stripey ground which is white, dark blue and purple. I'm the background are some hills with some long pointy bits here and there and also a lake reflecting the pointy bits. All this background detail is in hazy blue pencil. In the air, above the stripey ground, a white ghost floats by, with white orbs coming off its head. No detail in the ghost's whiteness other than two eye holes. The head is shaped like a large, upturned raindrop. The ghost is (somehow) carrying a heavy-looking treasure chest in its long arms. The chest is casting a shadow but the ghost isn't.

New picture with a ghost and a treasure chest.

I feel like it would just take one Pokémon looking at Pikachu and asking “why doesn’t he need to live in the ball?” to lead to some fuckin changes in that society

Morning.

Pencil and oil pastel drawing of the 1964 Beatles in a stiff non fun pose , but clearly there was something compelling about it or I wouldn’t have spent all day doing this bloody drawing

Beatles drawing with careful determinedness and Ringo as a grey balloon

Colourful oil pastel 1964 Beatles with wibbles and wiggles and grey balloon Ringo

George with green phone on head, and other Beatles, in a drawing with oil pastels and it’s so interesting when you look at it

White horse on the very outskirts with eccentric houses, oil pastel drawing, rich greens, scratched textures, pylon

I did add the two Beatles drawings posted earlier today and the horse on the outskirts to my available drawings…

… the first Beatles one with the grey Ringo balloon is already reserved, but the others (and still others) are available.

Wildflowers, a couple of springs ago, in the churchyard in Buckfastleigh, Devon. This is actually a very spooky spot in winter as it's the resting place of the allegedly Satanic Squire Richard Cabell - inspiration for Arthur Conan Doyle's Baskerville legend - whose corpse is boxed in by a somewhat incongruous structure, a little pagoda-ish, but also not unlike the kind of public toilet you might find in a small British town, which sits on the south side of the church. Do NOT walk around it backwards as the Devil will bite your fingers and Cabell will release his hell hounds. Also, the church has been burned down by Satanists not once but TWICE in the last couple of centuries. (I wrote about all this in more detail in my book 21st-Century Yokel, and a couple of the scarier gravestones inspired bits in my novel Villager.

Wildflowers love dead people.

It may seem janky but every decision was made with crystalline emotional judgement

A painting of a peasant, identified as Bencino Brugnolaio, and a dog in a mountainous landscape strewn with foodstuffs: cheeses, fruits, ham, celery, ricotta, citrons, fowl, cherries, eggs, all peculiarly out of scale

Artists, drop something red.

War is the worst of human endeavors, but the reason militaries do not fight by pure thuggery, as the United States now does, is that it ultimately puts us more at risk and defiles us as a country. What are we even fighting for if we are nothing but the biggest bully on the block?
