This is a link post A history of electric shocks

This is a normal post There was a small community of people near where I lived many years ago
Making all sorts of "art" and getting grants from the local council etc and I remember one day asking a council worker where all the "art" went to as I never saw any of it after the various shows it appeared at. It was mentioned that it had all been sold to various private collectors however he simply said "landfill" Every single bit of it, not one bit was ever sold , they couldn't even give it away nor take it to the scrappy as somebody would see it so under the cover of darkness these "special" works that cost the council thousands ended up buried in landfill sites. a fitting end if you ask me, pity they didn't some of those fecking hippies with it.

This is a normal post I'm glad we get council funded art,
even if some of it is really shit. I like looking at the bad stuff and working out how it could have been done better. It's only really the decorative meh art I struggle to find anything in.

(Genuinely love the artists in the video, though)

This is a normal post wow! I just read the other comments
what a lot of miserable people. Art is subjective so you can't expect to like all of it. Politicians hate art because it often exposes what's wrong with society and criticises their greed and so it becomes ever more under funded - which must please the most miserable and joyless people. Councils had more money to spend on art and playgrounds and recs and filling holes in the road back when this film was made as it our taxes were still paying local councils not all being funnelled to central government for their dodgy deals. I wish this ride of life had been made, it would've become much loved in Sheffield I'm sure.

This is entirely my fault—I animated her. Watch her pose, preen, and judge you silently (or maybe not so silently). It’s short, shiny, and you might find yourself strangely into it. Don't worry, no one has to know

This is a link post Never ever talk about mmm Rolf Harris I made this!
Posted a version yesterday, got a suggestion to make it easier to hear, fixed it, here it is again.

This is another in my occasional series of "stupid stuff that got stuck in my head and now I have to make a video to get it out".

This particular thing got stuck in my head 45 years ago when a kid at my school was holding a whoopee cushion and singing "New York London Munich Paris Everybody Talk About" (FART) "Rolf Harris".

Obviously don't want people talking about the Aussie nonce since he got cancelled, so Mr Jolly Lives Next Door provided the necessary alternative words.

And I learned today from Dr Glaucomflecken (not his real name) that one of the insurance companies is actually trying to limit how much anaesthetic they’re prepared to pay for during operations. As if they know how long operations take better than surgeons do.

If only he hadn't been killed UnitedHealth group would stop lobbying against the affordable care act, backdating stock options for bosses, defrauding consumers by manipulating reasonable and customary rates, defrauding the United States of hundreds of millions — and likely billions — of dollars etc etc
