‘We must not confuse democracy with the maintenance of a particular form of economic or financial system…rather it is a condition which allows for change in the system itself.’ - Ernest Bevin. On Hill Street, Belfast, the day before the 2013 G8 summit.

I am in a mood to be confrontational and say things people don't want to hear about their idols:

Fake shops used to make towns neater for G8 - RTÉ News

“Local councils in Northern Ireland have painted fake shop fronts and covered derelict buildings with huge billboards to hide the economic hardship being felt in towns and villages near the golf resort where G8 leaders will meet this month. Northern Ireland’s government has spent £2m (€2.3m) tackling dereliction over the past two years, the environment department said. Some buildings have been demolished and others have been given a facelift in an attempt to make areas more attractive. Almost a quarter of “dereliction funds” were freed up for local councillors in Co Fermanagh in anticipation of Britain hosting the annual Group of Eight leaders’ summit there on 17-18 June.”

Things I love about this:

1. Video footage of Richter

2. He’s playing French music!

3. These old TV sets for piano music always seem crazy in one weird way or another. What’s with the chandeliers?

a dude at the gym just reached in his bag, pulled out a bottle of Hershey’s chocolate syrup, smiled & shook his head like that’s just something that happens to people, put it back and then pulled out a bottle of water instead
