YouTube video by JoeJacksonVEVO Joe Jackson - Steppin' Out

At once impeccably cool and aggressively unfashionable, Joe Jackson’s Steppin’ Out is four minutes of nightmare disco and nightclub jitters which paves the way from ‘Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ to the Magnetic Fields. Detours through Motown and Freud. A perfect single. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJwt...

UNFOLDING If there is no spirit unfolding itself in history, No gradual growth of consciousness Beneath the land grabs and forced migrations, The bought elections, the betrayal of trust By party faction in the name of progress- What about spirit in the personal realm Unfolding slowly inside us, so slowly That our best days seem like a holding action? Seasons repeat themselves, but the tree Shading the yard keeps growing. Don't be chagrined that the sadness you felt This evening beside the bed of a friend Who's growing weaker wasn't more profound Than the sadness of yesterday, that you still Can't imagine a fraction of what he's feeling As the world he loves slips from his grasp. No progress from your perspective, But who's to say what you might notice If the scroll of the last few months were unrolled On the table before you, how clear it might be That your your understanding of all you're losing In losing him has been slowly deepening? Another day, you say to yourself, at dusk As you climb your porch steps, which you notice Could use some scraping and painting this weekend, A fresh coat that with luck will last a year. --Carl Dennis

SO many great poems in these old issues of The New Yorker

“Rising from the past, my shadow
Is running in silence to meet me.”

"Wild honey smells of freedom
The dust - of sunlight
The mouth of a young girl, like a violet
But gold - smells of nothing.”

While many cannot visit Kyiv,
and perhaps not everyone will be able to even after the war,
I’m honored to be your eyes into my beloved city and country.

It lives.

You make so many good points in this thread Ben. Do you think this may even be part of the reason for the backlog situation we currently face? That in fact we don't have the research to actually address the issues we promise to fix?

Too many of our SEND interventions make provision worse We must call out unevidenced practices and debunked ideas pervading EHCPs

4. Except we're building this on an assumption that's highly suspect at least. The @schoolsweek.bsky.social investigation into what was on EHCPs was hair raising. So much dubious practice.

I spent years trying to fit
in. Turns out… I was built
to stand out. Different isn’t
less. Different is power.
Celebrate differences. 🧩💙

Kafka understood that an even greater indignity than being turned into a giant insect was still being required to go to work afterward.
