Central London in the 2000/10s

I'm looking for pictures from the 2000/10s for an article on third spaces. Places such as Trocadero, Chinatown Market, the Korean restaurants on the old Centre Point/Tottenham Court Road, Artbox, JSA Restaurant in Soho and Red Devil Korea Bar and Diner Restaurant in Oxford Circus would be great.

DM me if you have any, looking to pitch this before 2025.

Spike Milligan: 'Follies of the Wise'

As the festive season approached in 1970, families would have pored over the special edition of the Radio Times to see what treats the three television channels could offer. If on New Year’s Eve had they walked across the room to warm up the set, and twiddled the knob to find BBC One, they would have seen a programme called Follies of the Wise presented by Spike Milligan. The writer, actor and…

#oh how the power dynamic has changed

Reading Red Robin is like-

fandom really played like a long game of telephone with this run because almost every popular trope that fanon likes to explore is like taken out of context from red robin

for example, back when i read fanon i would eat up the "Damian cut Tim's line" fics where it's like sad boy Tim and mean Damian and Dick finding out is always such an important plot line in these

but then in the actual book:

Damian cutting his line is a minor moment and immediately followed by them fighting physically with Tim winning

And the only reason Damian even did that is that Tim was still mistrusting him

and Dick knows about the whole thing-he helped solve the problem

there is also the fanon storyline of like Tim feeling super betrayed because no one believed him until they actually got Bruce back.

which is just. not what happened. at all?

Dick is always willing to believe him

and when Tim actually explains himself Dick listens and trusts him

Then Tim's characterization in fanon is also just like flanderised version of rr!Tim

Fanon is basically someone seeing a vaguely worded list of plot points in red robin and then making shit up from there and it so funny to me

Storyteller

"Hello Max, I'm here to surprise Pollix with a early pick up."

"Oh how nice, although I don't know if he'll want to go right now."

"Why not? Is he in the middle of a game?"

"No, its story time."

The tighalax smirks. "You really think he won't want to come because of 'story time'?" he laughs.

"Just look and see." the human smiles.

The teacher leads the giant feline being through the child centre to a corner where a colorful and beautiful plush carpet lays on the floor. Not that you could see it as it was covered by sitting younglings. All entranced by the human standing before them telling them a story rather animatedly and loudly.

"Pollix, lets go." calls Dux, looking at his cub.

Not even a glance.

"Pollix."

An ear twitch but still no look.

"...Pollix!"

The whole class looks including Kim.

"Oh, Pollix, your dad is here."

"Papa, not yet! The story isn't done." whines the cub.

"...you want to finish the story?"

"Pollix wants to finish the story! Jax and Morgana are fighting the monster now!" cries Nova.

"...is it almost over?"

"Oh, um, almost but, Pollix I can tell you the rest tomorrow-"

"My Papa says its okay!" Pollix cries interrupting Kim

"...is it okay if I...?" trails a very embarrassed Kim.

The tighalax nods and actually goes to sit next his cub. The sight making Max snort as the 8 foot tall feline like being towers over the younglings. After he settles in and Pollix snuggles in on his Papa's lap he gives Kim the okay to continue.

"...story teacher!" whines the children, their teacher taking too long for their liking to continue the story.

"Oh...right...okay then." she mutters, face red from nerves and embarrassment. This was the first time a parent saw her tell a story.

"...the monster roared at our heroes, swinging his mighty axe down at them. Flung into the air our hero, Jax, is grabbed by the giant's fist and thrown into the monster's mouth." The cubs gasp as the human acts out the catching their hero. Her voice slowly getting louder again.

"NO!"

"What does Morgana do?!"

"Is he dead?!"

"Morgana, seeing that the villain ate her friend charges at him as soon as she lands. Her sword drawn and ready, her face angry, eyes full of tears, and with a mighty cry leaps at the giant." She begins to act out the story, going back to her story telling enthusiasm.

"The monster in turn swings his axe at her, with her in the air it will definitely hit her. The axe hits Morgana and she falls to the ground badly hurt...but not without killing the beast. At the last moment she gathers all her magic into her sword and throws it at the giant monster, piercing his evil heart!" cries Kim, thrusting her hand out as if she had just thrown the very sword.

"...and then..." whispers Nova.

"The monster fades away, revealing a hurt but alive Jax. Seeing Morgana he drags himself to her and they hug, happy to see each other again. Even if they're both not in one piece. The healers arrive and the two head home where they continue the rest of their adventure together, as they were always meant to be. The end."

The cubs cheer with most asking for another story.

"No, no more stories for today. Let's give Kim a break, okay, she's already told you 4 stories." Max ushers the kids towards the toys.

"That was a very good tale teacher Kim, I never knew Earth had such interesting history."

"Hmm? Oh that wasn't our history."

"A legend or folktale then?"

"No, just a made up story."

"Ah, could you tell me the name of it? I would like to read it to Pollix at home, it sounded very interesting."

"Oh uh, I actually just made it up." the human smiles.

"You made it up!? How long ago? Must have taken you ages." Praised Dux, tail flicking in excitement.

"Actually I just made it up now, I make the story up as I go."

"...you make it up as you go...y'know that offer to quit your job and join my pack still stands right? Our planet and culture greatly value Storytellers such as yourselves, you could even make a great living if you worked for me."

"Thanks but I don't think I could ever do that, I hate public speaking!" grins the human.

"...but you just-"

"Children are the exception."

My sister sent me a news article about orca whales starting to wear dead fish on their heads, scientists assume that's their new fashion trend.

Wearing death on display is ocean's design. Congregated thousands of little deaths press together to form a chalk shield for one life. Death wears life too, predators with teeth rotting from the food debris stuck between them carry around little remora passengers.

Anemone life sits on a shell death covering a crab life. There's death devoured inside of that crab. It's life getting devoured inside of someone else.

Ghost spends time cleaning and boiling his little death until it's pristine white and suitable for wearing. Every little piece of life stuck to it, scraps of meat and stains of outer layer yellowed by years of functioning, is polished off. Rookies shine their boots, Ghost sits hunched over a front half of a skull and meticulously goes over it with a cloth and some varnish. Little pores this bones used to breathe through get clogged by a fake immortality.

Fashion dies. Dead fish rots and falls off the head of a chirping orca with a smile reeking of death.

Ghost's wearable death goes out of fashion with a slide of warm hands, bunching up the bally and moving the skull out of the way. Greased up pores of his skin take a breath. Same warm hands come up to wash the black and and the red away. Wipe the stains off his face, trace his features. Trace the still living, blood-rushed meat that by miracle still covers his own skull. His Sergeants' wearable life attaches to him by hands of the greatest evolutionary designer. Two capable remoras stuck in their place painlessly and tightly, flexible yet unmovable. Determined to keep their place and Simon protected.

Dead fish fashion fades. Living fish style is eternal.

Kyle and Johnny will make sure Simon stays dressed in style.

Doing some thinking about how I want to draw Skarloey n Rheneas

Rheneas… he’s so goddamn difficult to get right for me but I will figure it out

I want them both to look similar but still distinct (I am thinking too hard about this probably)

The culprit of all this (ignore the guy to the left he’s for perspective reference)
