Can’t find any information on this painting in Volterra museum by Cosimo Daddi, called ‘Madonna and Child between Saints Paul and Lucy’. Can any Arts folk out there explain the eyes in the dish?

Maxine Peake and Samuel Barnett both absolutely superb in The Last Stand of Mrs Mary Whitehouse at Nottingham Playhouse tonight. Catch it if you can.

Pritzker: Trump looked at the cameras and asked for me personally to say, Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city? Instead, I say, Mr. President, do not come to Chicago.

Your remarks about this effort have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties

Armando Iannucci recommends
The Ballad of Wallis Island.

Out to buy now and still in some independent cinemas. Really worth seeing on a big screen if you can.

A bit late to this, but a brilliant essay by @iammilliam.bsky.social on suburbia in literature. He should write a book on the subject, and it would be a great book, and he’d get a microscopic advance for it because publishing sucks.

"When suburbia features in British fiction, if it features at all, it is usually as somewhere that isn’t the countryside and isn’t the city, a location which only exists to be escaped from."

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Fuck it. I'm going to give away 100 books. If you'd like one of these, signed, email yr address to [email protected]. All I ask is that you give me the postage (£4 UK). If you can give me more, brilliant. If not, no probs.

Stephen Fry called this "hilarious.". I think it's my best non-fiction book.

Bit of a cheat perhaps as this is ‘Porta Pispini’ - one of the seven city gates in Siena.

The self-help market for writing is saturated with gurus and big promises, which might partly account for the lack of success of my own How To Write course, where I do nothing except tell you to fuck off for 20 years, read a shitload of books and write in whatever the hell way you want to.

I LOVED this essay. It discusses something I’ve felt deeply, referenced so many of the books/authors I love and made me laugh out loud.
