@thunderoad75.bsky.social add Brighton to our next itinerary!
This is "Sunday Morning, Farringdon Road" by Cecil Osborne from 1929. The painting is in the collection at Brighton & Hove Museums & it is currently on display there in "Power, Passion, Protest" & will be for roughly the next two years, as far as I am aware. #CecilOsborne #EastLondonGroup

@veallbagsetlist.bsky.social I'm ready to go back. 💜
I knew I’d have to shoot a panorama as soon as I arrived at Bamburgh. The light first started breaking through out at sea and slowly spread across the sky, then it vanished only to be replaced by a different gap in the clouds. Repeat for two hours.

On this day in 1985, Bruce Springsteen released "My Hometown," the seventh and final top 10 single from "Born in the U.S.A." A stark, synth-driven reflection on small-town America that hit #6 and topped the adult contemporary chart.

Physical albums aren't dead—they're acts of devotion now. Buying vinyl or CDs in 2025 tells an artist: your art matters enough to hold in my hands.

DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE: What moved me about this film was the way it shows, without a load of sentimental corn, how writers work, drafting and redrafting their material. It's also about how beautiful things--music, books, poetry--emerge from unhappy times.

ICE is hanging out at MARTA stations in Atlanta. And I have it on good authority from a pastor friend in Charlotte that CBP left their area and are headed down this way.

This is a great favourite of mine, "Smithfield Spires" by Harold Steggles from 1931 His view must have been taken Holborn Viaduct & I particularly like the way that he's incorporated his signature in to the signage on the building! #HaroldSteggles #EastLondonGroup

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.

The Roman Empire prospered due to open borders, mass immigration and diversity then fell because of huge wealth inequality and corrupt leadership. I just thought I'd mention it.
