We are in a weird moment. Non-normal times. You see, all the easy stuff has been done. All the coal movie reviews, all the superficial readings.
Now all there is hard work and the grit required to follow through. Many will fall away as things get less exciting.
4) Millienilol Striver
Went to uni, probs from a longhouser background. Is going absolutely nowhere. Has an fake email job. Can't quite sort their life out. Rents a cupboard for 2k a month. Loves the bird app.
3)The British Loonghooser
Loves the idea of Britain being a community where everyone is the same. Idolises BBC and NHS as symbols of this. Attlee stans, Thatcher haters. Ultimately crave for the security of the long house. Will literally do anything the government tells them
6) The Managerial Class
Very comfortable and aspirational. Sees themselves as part of a global culture of progress and science. Almost certainly uni educated. Secretly has contempt for the above. Is an absolute philistine beside some rock music they listened to at 22.
5) Cringe Creative
Lives in a shit hole. Is addicted to drugs. Also going nowhere. Went to art college bc they weren't any good at maths. Thinks dance music is an art form. Spouts nothing but cliches but is pure hedonist at heart. Complete drain on everyone around them.
7) 'Tory' Elite
From inhereited wealth. Has zero ideas, just wants to pay less tax. Possibly ex-military, probably finance. Perverted. Cheats on spouse. Love West London and some random country estate. Takes all cues from Manager Class.
2) The Underclass
A pain for everyone concerned. They are yesteryears paupers supported by modern technocracy. Consistent breeders. Totally unproductive. Deanos especially differentiate themselves from this class. No culture to speak of.
THE HISTORIOGRAPHY OF WINDRUSH 🚢
The Windrush narrative has become one of the founding myths of multicultural Britain, but where did it come from??
See below for what I've found out👇
8) Blairite Masters
Instinctive feeling for power. Master manipulators and propagandists. Have been completely captured by their own ideology which they believe amounts to a culture. Loves a think tank. Wants to be American (for power)

If you don't pursue women you are a incel
Why have we criminalised being a man?
If given the chance I would create a monument that celebrated the dynamic force and form of boxing. The Fourth Plinth deserves a statue that champions vitality.
@MavenPolitic
Demographic explosions are not always good. It's a mistake to believe quantity is better than quality.
We've learnt that these expansions destroy infrastructure and lead to proletariatisation. Having a nation of 1bn proles is utterly pointless.
In seriousness, the reason Radio 6 Dads love this stuff is that it reconciles the therapeutic-administrative state with masculinity. Men can feel manly within a technocratic modern and progressive egalitarianism.
This is not true. Neither true masculinity nor femininity can.

Today I start my long journey by refining my Prometheus design 🔥I'll be posting regularly on my progress, so stay tuned for updates.
This is the first "notan" study I've done. Notan means "black/white" in Japanese and refers to the pattern of dark and light within a composition

You have just entered the city. You need to resupply your potions from prior adventures. You visit this man's magic shop but he has a side quest for you. He passes you a grimoire....
What's the grimoire?
Sheffield's old Crimean Monument was a huge monument to the Crimean War designed by architect George Goldie. It featured a statue of seated Victory and had captured Russian cannon at its base.
In the 1960s the local council dismantled it and put it in storage where it remains.
Rare Wyndham Lewis at his Rebel Art Centre workshop.
He couldn't get on with Roger Fry and the Bloomsbury set, who had just opened their Omega Workshops for design pieces, so he set up his own rival workshop.
So we can see that Windrush itself is arbitrary. It was merely the one ship recorded on film and therefore able to be presented by a collaboration of Carribbean activists, journalists, local government in London and New Labour.
Nebuchadnezzer, pen and ink
In Daniel 4 Nebuchadnezzar is a great king of Babylon who through his sinful pride was brought down low to a bestial state. The face is a self-portrait
The first mention of Windrush comes from a book published through a collaboration between a magazine editor called Onyekachi Wambu, Lambeth Council and South London Press

Oi Kunley! Hate crime isn't a joke mate. It seriously affects people's mental elf. People like you are making stigmatas on people's mental elf! That's aggy mate. You need to pack it in with the stigmatas mate.

How did an ordinary guy suddenly become a millionaire in the Russian Federation in 1992??
Wow, life comes at you fast.
Kisin is the son of an oligarch who came to London to escape the Russian justice system. These are the people making 'content' about Anglo-American liberty.
Dad was 20 when I was born.
At 30, he was a millionaire.
At 35, he was a minister in the Russian Government.
At 40, he was living in exile under a cloud of false allegations with no money.
One of the funniest, erudite and intractable people I've ever met. 🙏
A lot of commentary on the rain and climate of Britain recently. I believe that Britain is returning to an island of mystical temperate rainforests where the druid can thrive once more. Want some ayahuasca, anon? Merlin wants to meet us.
40 Winters On was a collection of oral accounts from migrants about how they came to Britain. Windrush was important, not because it was the first ship of Carribbean immigrants or the last, but because British Pathé was there to film it. Windrush was just the one recorded.
Onyekachi Wambu came to Britain in 1970 from Nigeria as a refugee after their civil war. He went on to study at Cambridge and become a journalist and editor for Voice magazine in the 80s. He joined the BBC in the 90s making docs about race relations.

He's one of our most interesting thinkers regarding society, its structure, the narratives and fairy stories it tells itself and the archetypal wisdom held within.
Phillips was one of New Labour's prime promoters and architects of multiculturalism in the British State. I think it is from here that the Windrush myth became part of the ideology of multiculturalism on Britain, spreading into wider journalism, education and broadcasting.
@MatthewTheStoat
Hollyweird doesn't believe that women can entirely give herself to her beloved bc they don't believe anyone can completely give themselves to anyone.
But what is especially foreign to the fish-men of LA is the intensity of the female 'ride-or-die' instinct when it is activated.

Unlikely as it sounds gender-bending and cultural subversive homosexuals team up with tough Northern mill workers to fight Tory cuts and bigotry.
Lots of mishaps and laughter occurs along the way as Big Bazz learns a lot about AIDS.
In the 00s joined AFFORD (African Foundation for Development). An NGO dedicated to development in Africa. He is currently Executive Director.
He has written several books on Windrush
The Voice was founded independently but was backed by Lambeth Council and other London councils. The Brixton riots had occurred in 1981 and they were keen to make Black communities feel included and wished to promote social cohesion.
The Voice magazine was a weekly magazine founded in 1982 by Val McCalla, a Jamaican journalist. It was directed toward London's African-Carribean community, giving them news of home and news regarding race relations in the UK.
