POLITE REQUEST
(yes, it's in capitals)
I have no interest in Crypto, TechBro or StartUp Cultures.
I don't really require or easily accept glib, anodyne 'motivational' advisors (unless it's me).
And I can only really sufficiently manage to read English French or Danish with coherence.

Probably unhelpful return to recent RW comment re representation in TV ads but agency responsible for IKEA's MTV Cribs piss-take ad have got it spot on.
We all know it's bullshit for the cameras & can share the joke.
Whether it's *for everyone* is open to interpretation/in your head. Keep it there.

Just to mention Kemi Badenoch's response to Labour's asylum policy spiral as "not going far enough" is equally if not more sinisterly declaring political suicide by right-wing lurch.
Labour making ugly future choices whilst the tories seek to undo the past, once again, without any real fallout.

The executive has encouraged the legislature to compel the executive to release files the executive holds and has chosen not to release despite calls from legislators. It's unclear whether the executive will veto the legislature's bill, and whether the legislature will over-ride the executive's veto

Britain had much tougher asylum rules in 2023-24 than Denmark after the Illegal Migration Act. That is a proof that Danish rules in the UK won't deliver a similar outcome: the drivers of journeys to the UK and Demark differ. (Eg English language; eg the smuggling route in place now)

Trump's AG: "President Clinton, I put it to you that-"
Clinton (interrupting) : "I think everyone here knows it was more a matter of *Me* putting *It* to your boss, madam AG. (chuckles) Do please remind us all, ma'am - Where did you study law & how exactly did you 'manage' to get this job?"

Channel 4's Summerwater jumps straight in with the drama at quite an intense pace. Everyone is rather angry but insular when amongst others. There is tension & release aplenty.
A couple of art direction motifs recur which, me being me, I take to be in reference to these.

I'm not a cruise ship designer (my Grandfsaher was a marine/ship's draughtsman, however) but I am somewhat materially unambitious, I do believe in design & I have previously found work to be unfulfilling from time to time.
So this is quite a broad canvas to be painting;

Dry Cleaning have released their new single 'Cruise Ship Designer' and announced a UK outstore tour - Dork
Ticket bundles include exclusive early access to the band's new album.

One wonders what 'crooked' Hillary made of all this, particularly when being told that US voters were just *not ready for a female president* due to the incredible demands upon the person of that challenging but nonetheless honourable role.
(irony warning)
According to the email from Mark Epstein to his brother Jeff,

Putin has a picture of TACO giving oral sex to another man. The email implies Bill Clinton, but it really doesn’t matter who it is.

That’s a kind of Kompromat that would render ANYONE ineligible to hold a security clearance.

Not the greatest naming decision.
"Blah blah principles of excellence etc but yeah we plan to burn everything down & start again based on some mythic bullshit folklore riffing on purification by fire"
Origins of phoenix myth, via Herodotus, is ancient Egypt & the sun god Ra.
Latterly greco-roman.
This should alarm everyone.

On Thursday, Florida, by unanimous vote, became the first state in the country to adopt “The Phoenix Declaration: An American Vision for Education.”
It was written by the Heritage Foundation, the same group behind Project 2025.

THIS IS INDOCTRINATION

Channel 4's sci-fi film season has served up Ad Astra which, superficially, looks to be Apocalypse Now / Heart of Darkness in space.
There's a recording studio scene on Mars which suggests to me that Brad Pitt may be a bit of a David Bowie fan.

Delighted to see the Rosalia album at number 4 in the UK album charts. It's not an easy listen. A 2025 version of Scott 4. The kids are alright.

No-one wants to hear it - less time on social media.
However, naming my poison is just a choice of how-to spend time.
I've produced some more music for Bandcamp, despite it being for literally one man & his dog.
I've found anything I write about music refines the stuff I get recommended to listen to

Got very nice bottle of red from local wine merchants which was both organic & unfiltered. It was also something of a rarity & mid-range priced for UK market.
We need more UK demand for this. And to stop treating good land use as a luxury commodity rather than a given at everyday pricing.

🇺🇸☢️ Trump stated that the US intends to conduct nuclear tests in the near future.

In an interview with GB News, he added that he would like to initiate negotiations on denuclearization.

The first step could be a meeting involving three states — the US, Russia, and China.
