More anarchy is loosed upon the world

As if to mark the apotheosis of all things blasphemous, it's the great zombizi exhibition!!! Rollup, rollup, that's what he's stood outside smoking.

Actually, from now on I shall refer to him as The Great Zombizi, firstly because he's genuinely quite good, and secondly because it makes him sound like a freak show under a canvas awning, which rather suits him.

Oh yes, details. He'd like it if I remembered the details.

It's at the Here Gallery, 108 Stokes Croft, Bristol, from Saturday March 8 to Saturday March 29. I'm going to the opening preview tomorrow, which if you ask me is proof positive of how very important I am.

But it's not about me, apparently, it's about zombizi and his really very good art. Yes photos are proper art. zombizi's are, anyway. Not that it will say they're proper art at the exhibition. That's because they're proper art. Show don't tell, you see. It's a bit late for me though, I've got far too much telling under my belt to go changing now. So listen to me, and go and look at him.

To get your juices going, here's a quote from an admirer. “Zombizi's photos are unsettling - but in a good way - like once when I had a dream about Jeanette Krankie and Maggie Thatcher 'doing it' in Razzle...”

And if that doesn't make you want to go, then I've terribly misjudged my audience.


 
 

Anarchy is loosed upon the world

The House of Lords has passed an amendment to the Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill. For reasons I don't fully understand, this piece of legislation covers the blasphemy laws, which are now to be repealed. Richard Dawkins was apparently used on both sides of the debate. One Lord quoted from the God Delusion, and then asked what the point of a blasphemy law was if that kind of thing could get past it.

After centuries of tyranny from our Abrahamic warlord masters, little by little their pudgy little fingers are being pried loose of the reins of power. Now we can be as rude as they can be.

But what's this? In our moment of triumph, the atheist community lets me down. Your search - "Jesus on the lavatory" - did not match any documents. Come on people, you're just not trying.
