this collection feels like his first collections which in my opinion, were his best. this specific collection was based off of skelton’s references to brigantian mythology and samhain. like the unnamed horned deities inferred from northern british landscapes, the collection resists clarity, favoring material presence over image and ritual repetition over narrative. the garments exist in a samhain register: worn, protective, and quietly acknowledging the violence of seasonal change. shot by will waterworth and video directed by joel kerr by tnt

but at least john deere still loves farmers… if unavailable here try this search on youtube ( how john deere robs farmers $4 billion a year )
its a crooked world, greed is endless and no one is apparently spared. john deere is costing american farmers $4.2 billion a year by restricting them from fixing their own tractors. apple, amazon and major automakers like bmw, mercedes, ford, use the same strategies on everything you own. it’s bad for consumers and local mechanics, but excellent for corporate profits. by bb

al jourgensen ministry early 80s
ministry – just one fix… today’s mood
new world order in honor of georgie bush senior
ministry is important as a pioneering and influential industrial metal band, known for their aggressive sound, political/social commentary (anti-authority, anti-fascist)
came across these gems recently and digging them hard, i remember them when i bought this album when i was into bauhaus and the cure and sisters of mercy etc. and somehow they didn’t fit the bill at the time, but i think at the time they didn’t fit any bill. speed metal was not a genre yet and rammstein didn’t exist…
living in berlin the cuban born al jourgensen was deep into drugs and pretty fucked up… but you gotta admit this track and the album as whole did kick some ass…
ministry was an innovative blend of metal with electronic/punk elements that shaped the genre and influenced bands like nine inch nails, rammstein, and fear factory. their significance lies in pioneering industrial metal, their powerful lyrical themes, and their enduring impact on heavy music culture through intense performances and outspoken social messages. enjoy. by bb

the sheffield clarion ramblers were a working-class rambling club founded in sheffield in 1900 by g.h.b. ward and inspired by the clarion socialist newspaper. they organised regular walks in the peak district and were active in campaigning for public access to moorland paths and rights of way. the group became one of the most influential rambling clubs in britain in the early 20th century.
members carried and used the club’s annual clarion ramblers handbooks, tiny pocket-sized journals produced between about 1901 and the 1960s. these handbooks listed itineraries of rambles and also included local history, geology, folklore and reflections on walking culture, making them both practical guides and cultural companions on their walks. by tnt
