An art historical gloss: for those who don't know, Guernica was held by MoMA in NYC for more than 40 years, as Picasso stipulated the painting should not return to Spain while Franco was still in power. It was finally unstretched, rolled up & sent back to Spain in 1981, as shown in this video

This new electoral vídeo from Pedro Sánchez is quite something. Standing in front of Guernica defending the anti-war stance of his government, limiting military expenditure, denouncing the atrocity of Gaza. English subtitles.

Seems to me like we're due for a reconsideration—and perhaps even an exhibition?—of the mostly forgotten illustrator Boris Artzybasheff, whose hallucinatory mid-20th-century automation drawings seem eerily prescient right now.

Every now and then a piece of advertising copy wedges in my mind like a splinter in a gumline. Most recently it’s “convenient wound protection” on a bus stop ad. When my battery runs low I walk around the house repeating it in a reverie. I must protect my convenient wound

I can't believe I have to hear that there's a dragon washing game only to be told the dragons are horny. You can't do that to me. I want to wash dragons but not like that. I'm happy for the dragon fuckers but I am sad for me I just want to wash them
