Taidekoulujen rahoituksen päättyminen ei ole siis osoitus niiden toiminnan heikkoudesta, vaan hallinnollisen tahdon puutteesta. Kun Kela onnistui löytämään ratkaisun opintotukeen, olisi ollut vähintään kohtuullista odottaa Taikelta ja OKM:ltä vastaavaa vastuunkantoa koulutuksen rahoituksessa.
Vapaan taidekoulun ja Taidekoulu Maan rahoituksen loppuminen on merkittävä epäonnistuminen Taiken ja Opetusministeriön osalta. | juhuu.nu

A small unelected, secretive crew now has free access to sensitive private data of everyone.
And Musk is already publicly targeting family members of judges who rule against the administration.

In these trumpian times it was a cathartic experience to visit the Angoulême International Comics Festival, and to see so much work that is unhinged in a positive way, full of life and complexity! And so many people! Approx 200 000 comics enthusiasts annually convene in this small picturesque town.

I'm exhausted by all the people out there who are trying to prove they're each the most cynical world-weary disillusioned person who's not gonna ever do a fucking thing ever except dump on everything and expect to be admired for that. Wrote about that in 2016:

A visit to Seinäjoki Kunsthalle, to see Tove Kjellmark's exhibition. The venue Kalevan Navetta is a great example of a successful public-private partnership: renovated by a private company which now rents it to the City of Seinäjoki & various non-profits and for-profits which actively collaborate.
