There is a great lover of nature,
An actor and all-round creator,
On his birthday today,
I can just wish and pray,
For him everyday to be greater!
Happy birthday 🥳 @exitthelemming !
A small public service announcement from the Department of Things That You Should Know…
It has not “peeked” your interest.
Nor has it “peaked” your interest.
…It has piqued your interest.
You are not “phased” by something.
You are fazed by it.
If you’ve had a long day, you are weary.
If you suspect someone is an idiot, you are wary.
It is “due course”, not “do course”.
“Per se”, not “per say”.
And while we’re here, it’s “could have”, not “could of”, but that particular battle may already be lost.
Thank you for your attention during this brief outbreak of grammatical housekeeping.
This has been a @LairdofthManor announcement.🎩💙
David Hockney digital art makes me think about Matisse’s cut outs: circumventing the limitations of an aged body and experimenting with bold techniques and indomitable passion.
A true icon and revolutionary of British art who never stopped reinventing his work.
From his training at the Royal College of Art in the early 60s to blockbuster London retrospectives, David Hockney has inspired millions. His vivid paintings of our changing seasons helped me see the beauty and fragility of our natural world - and why it must be protected.
I know his legacy will live on for centuries to come. https://t.co/lWxYZZVnTy
British artist David Hockney, one of the most influential and celebrated artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, has died at the age of 88, according to his PR agent.
A leading figure in the pop art movement, Hockney was renowned for his bold use of color and his iconic works depicting California's swimming pools, the landscapes of Normandy in Europe, and the English countryside in the UK. Over a career spanning more than six decades, he worked across painting, drawing, photography and digital art, leaving a lasting impact on the global art world.
Hockney's vibrant and innovative body of work made him one of Britain's most recognizable artists and a towering figure in contemporary art.

Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums. Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?
Keir Starmer’s going to Makerfield to campaign for Andy Burnham.
The level of integrity & grace in Keir is truly humbling. He’s going to help the person who betrays & conspires against him, because he wants Labour as a team to do well, only proving why Keir is the rightful PM.
