Close-up of Vermeer at the Rijksmuseum last year - exquisite focus on the domestic: revolutionary. And me around the same time. Posing. Possibly pouting. Normally to be found pouring shit out of shit - but not in a painterly way.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive.

There is a grammar vigilante in Bristol UK, mostly concerned with correcting store names and signs (usually removing or adding apostrophes as appropriate)

Booker Prize winner but - crucially I think - a slim volume with a cool cover & an enigmatic name. I can’t be the only person who picked it up in the bookstore, sight unseen, based on this. It sold 20K + even before announcement of prize win. #books #publishing #orbital
