US education system.
That’s a fair question.
The arts are seen as a luxury and a frippery. They are also seen as elitist.
If you want to defund public services and remain popular, the playbook is to remove the arts first. That way you are demonstrating the order of needs.
That’s not cheese, that’s yellow shrink wrap
Related to another popular post right now…so what was Bruce Dickinson’s ancestor?
It’s 1994. The Bosnian-Serbian conflict is still raging. Some cool dude from the UN peace keepers thinks it would be good to have a concert.
He contacts Bruce Dickinson and says, “wanna play a much needed gig in a warzone?”
Bruce says, “yes”.
Here’s the documentary.
You can’t defund social welfare programmes without defunding the arts first. To defund healthcare you have to defund the arts. To defund schools, you first have to defund the arts.
You know where this is going.
The arts are the canary and it is lying dead at the bottom of the cage.
Cretins? Not sure that’s a word you want to use, pal, it’s a pretty bad slur.
Couldn’t let it be could you?
And opposing those actions is not antisemitic.
We take those two things together as truth and we are getting somewhere.
Nah, its for “grizzled tanman”. You oldies just don’t get it.
That hair though.
C’mon man, it’s time to get a coverage appropriate cut or just shave it altogether.
He looks like a boiled sweet that’s been dropped on the carpet.
I once made a music video for Sony Universal.
They paid me £4k.
They liked it a lot and asked if I would do another. I asked if the fee was the same and they said I’d be doing it for exposure.
I told them I’m capable of exposing myself.
I stuck it to them.
I’m still poor, but at least I’m not working for it.
All my heart still belongs to the canon HV20 forum. It taught me how to film, it taught me how to chat to people in an online community.
It was never about a camcorder. It was about connection.
Plus, you could search for stuff on google and the forum results would pop up. Good look with discord doing that.
Yup, needs are approx 115% of my budget, but thanks for insinuating it is me that’s being shit with maths.
(And in before the “live within your means” crowd… I was doing until my landlord doubled my rent and they started having to put anti-theft devices on packs of butter).
Hi, I’m Issac Newton, you might remember me from… The motions.
Petition to edit all textbooks, renaming Newton as THE Motion Guy.
Yeah, no.
Newton was such a complex human. He seemed capable of holding many, sometimes opposing beliefs, at the same time.
Newton’s conception of the physical world provided a model of the natural world that would reinforce stability and harmony in the civic world. Newton saw a monotheistic God as the masterful creator whose existence could not be denied in the face of the grandeur of all creation.
There’s even a Wikipedia page dedicated to his religious beliefs.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_views_of_Isaac_Newton
If you are into learning about him there’s also a rather good read, The Janus Faces of Genius, by Betty Jo Teeter Dobbs, that looks into his occult work.
Furthermore, for the sake of complexity, we can look into how, when he was the warden of the mint, he became responsible for the deaths of 19 people. He turned a largely ceremonial role into a task force, chasing down forgers and sentencing them to death.
Aye, and it sounds like it.
It’s perfect in its corny hyperbolic horror spook schlock.
It’s not war and peace.
Can you even imagine a case where someone spends note than an hour writing this stuff?
…Dave, I’ve slaved for weeks on this short two minute monologue that cribs from most every “horror” show out there?
Oh no, I get you. I think we are a similar age.
I was at the Reading Festival in '96 and I think offspring were playing.
There was a slightly older guy stood in the middle of the crowd shouting, you call this punk… This ain’t punk. This ain’t shit.
The kids were laughing at him.
This week in Glasgow Green Day played a gig and all I saw was middle aged men and their daughters wearing matching merch t-shirts.
I’m assuming at some point I travel back in time to '96 to try to stop this.
