I am absolutely no expert, but the Lee Miller one at Tate Britain looks cool. Also intrigued by this: courtauld.ac.uk/whats-on/exh...
Wayne Thiebaud. American Still Life
The first ever UK museum show devoted to the work of Wayne Thiebaud (1920-2021), now considered to be one of the greatest and most original American artists of the 20th century.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

Public libraries remain one of the best things ever about this country. Support your local libraries, friends.
This went great! VERY engaged audience!

I love doing library events.

There are 3 ways to get a lot of actual people to follow you here:

1. Be a nice person who shows up to have actual conversations and friendly banter consistently with the same people.
2. Post a lot about a topic you know a lot about in easy-to-understand chunks.
3. Be a S-tier shitposter.

Also, fun thing is we CAN explain this to David Seymour.

Most obviously, first nations in the US and Canada. Catholic and francophone minorities in Canada. The German language minority in Belgium. Faeroese & Greenlanders in Denmark. & more broadly; in *every federal system* rights vary among states

What a great day it was in Te Whanganui a Tara Wellington yesterday. A unequivocal message was sent to David Seymour and the coalition government.

PLEASE, if you are submitting on any legislation, do it personally through the parliament website.
Submitting via a third party (eg Greenpeace) is fantastic if you’d do nothing at all otherwise but if you can, take that extra step.
Or do both.

Maximise the effect of your voice.

Make a submission - New Zealand Parliament
Parliament's decisions affect all New Zealanders. Have your say and influence the laws passed by Parliament. You can get involved by making a submission.

Not a scrap of rubbish on the ground. No violence. No arrests. No swastikas. No nooses. Fifty thousand people all uniting to voice their objection to the absurd, peacefully observing the kaupapa. That's a power you can't dismiss or switch off.

I used a video editor to analyse the video + estimated the size of the space using google maps

Based on that, the lower bound of the number of people in the video is about 83,000 people. Plus the 4,000 already at Parliament house (according to @tzemingdynasty.bsky.social) that makes 87,000 people.

Reposting this to remind you....
Psst:...advice from my big brother: direct all your anger and outrage at Luxon for allowing such craven bullshit from his coalition partners - he's the one who handed them the power. He won't like the heat.
