The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

Staring into the mirror blankly. Thirty minutes. Maybe more. Maybe forty. The face that looks back starts to become oddly unfamiliar to me.

If you hold that gaze for long enough it becomes something else. Someone else. That face that felt familiar now becomes a stranger,

Fuck AMW.

Just 45 cooling towers left in Britain, all but one in the process of decommission and demolition. If, like me, you are fond of these silent sculptural giants scattered across the landscape, you will love @c20society.bsky.social supersized new book.
