From place to placeless.
Ramsgate Marina Art Deco, Seawater Pool, opened in 1935 and closed in 1975. It is now a car park!

Had to get some thoughts out about the beautifully done yet vexingly placeless version of Toshirō Mifune in Onimusha: Way Of The Sword for @aftermath.site
How Much Of Toshirō Mifune Survives In Onimusha?
Onimusha: Way Of The Sword uses the likeness of Toshiro Mifune for its main character. It is both very well done and oddly placeless in his life.

I wrote about how *where* people made a thing can matter almost as much as how, especially in this age of faceless, placeless AI:

pattison’s american voices are good, i think, because they are Character voices and not placeless americanisms, which is the mistake most british actors make when doing america

Great list. A little Good Placeless, tho, but I don’t think I could narrow a list down to 10 without killing a whole pack of Yellers.

Epic piece by @andrealongchu.bsky.social on the always irritating stylings of Pamela Paul: “Her prose has the clean, placeless scent of laundry detergent; in another life, she would have been a minor satirist of bourgeois habit.” Ouch. nymag.com/intelligence...

“By stripping the right to asylum, nations are creating a growing underclass of placeless, rightless people to police in perpetuity, and an ever-greater policing apparatus with which to crack down on them—and, increasingly, everyone else.”
Absolutely essential reading on global borders and asylum.

For @jewishcurrents.bsky.social I wrote about the decimation of the right to asylum. I went into the history of asylum, how it was formalized post the World Wars, how it was never properly implemented, and how its destruction paves the path for authoritarianism.

Rosalía - Lux
Impossible to categorise and define (traditional yet futuristic, strongly rooted yet placeless) but that‘s the beauty of it. She‘s basically a decade ahead of her time.

2. Tindersticks - Tindersticks II
While Britpop banged on about Britishness, Tindersticks felt placeless, more Leonard Cohen, Gainsbourg & Morricone than Kinks or Who. A world-weary, cinematic, timeless masterpiece.

This is incredible. One of the best VNs I've ever played. It drips with the aimless alienation of growing up in the suburbs, queer and placeless, and the way it brings together its shoujo influences with its modernist style is nothing short of genius

Skyline of a cityscape/landscape - From a distance even a subtle motion renders any discernible features irrelevant. All that remains is a mood, colors, atmosphere. Timeless, placeless.

Why do so many anglophones have this idea that “academic freedom” is some abstract, placeless concept they can apply anywhere on a whim?
The Cofnas suspension letter set out, in detail, the list of rules he had broken. Real rules, in place when he accepted the position, that he then wilfully broke.
