Thanks @cathyfox Just so you know, Steemit has removed the pizzagate topic completely from the Topics bar. @ned claims there's a bug but it's strange how that bug only affects the PIZZAGATE topic. I think @ned is LYING through his "how can I serve Alefantis" teeth

I think the concept is good re steemit, but it does not seem decentralised enough. I will keep a watch on the pizzagate topic, if its a bug they should fixing it. What blog platform are you thinking of going to?

I've given up on steemit. a lot of rubbish gets high votes because people cheat. I'm now in a private research group.

yes i know, presumably it can still be searched for though?

Just read this: from link I just sent you:

Johnson is the latest in a line of young athletes - polo players , oarsmen and swimmers - that Weber has discovered and used in his work; they seem linked, I suggest, by a certain sense of innocence. Is that the emotion he is always looking for?

'I have always been attracted to the innocence in people because I feel like it's the thing that most reveals them,' he says. 'But I don't look at innocence as something unhealthy, something that should be corrupted. I'm pretty protective of the people I photograph.'

In part of the narrative on the film, Weber, now 56, observes: 'Photographing Peter and his friends in the shower, I remember myself at that age. I wanted to be one of those kids padding around without a care in the world, but I couldn't. I'd be swimming all day in the country club and my mom would tell me to shower and dress [there] for dinner but I told her I couldn't. The locker-room would be too crowded at that hour and it seemed to me that every guy in the Midwest would be in the locker-room showering and dressing for his six o'clock date. Instead I'd wash at the washbasin wearing my underwear and a towel. We sometimes photograph the things we can never be.'

He's done a couple of them - in gymnasiums or athletic arenas. I can't remember the name. It had jazz as the soundtrack. there was NO speaking, just jazz and boys' waists downwards. It was complete torture because it was a "society" event and we weren't sure we could get out early. Here's an article about one. May have been this. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2002/jun/30/artsfeatures.features Note he focuses on "young".
