Law & Order: SVU and some quiet embroidery.

An embroidery hoop with a section of green split stitch representing a field, messy tacking stitch outlines, satin stitch paths in beige, and French knots in heather purple and shades of green representing heather scrub.

I got a few reams of plain coloured craft card yesterday for £5, plus a bunch of men's shirts for £1 each. Love a good thrift day.

I think it's Sweden where banana is a popular pizza topping. I think I'd probably try it before I took a firm stance

Hey, I've got some unsolicited chronic pain advice that I won't burden you with out of the blue and especially not on what seems like a bad day, but if/when you're in a good place to hear about it, feel free to drop into my DMs

Side-effects are here! I slept all morning and I still don't really want to be awake

Kade Peregrine @kadeperegrine.bsky.social · 13h

We're all here for you xx

Yes, definitely should. These things should be ruled on whether they have the capacity for harm, not whether someone might feel icky about them.

I feel icky about sleeping with a guy I didn't know voted Tory. Doesn't make it assault.

But all of that is about consenting to particular aspects of the act itself. If I consent to action A, with body part B and risk profile C, then as long as I'm not interacting with body part D its existence (past or present) is none of my business unless it poses a direct risk to my health in A

Kade Peregrine @kadeperegrine.bsky.social · 14h

Same with contraception, if you consent to sex using a condom and one party removes the condom without your knowledge or consent, that's also rape and I agree with that because it's about personal risk wrt STIs and pregnancy.

Genuinely Poor

Reposting because I've added a kicker panel. Thanks to @schraubd.bsky.social for the suggestion!

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON

This cartoon has four panels. Each panel shows two men: A not-wealthy looking man with shaggy hair and some stubble, and a bald man in glasses, wearing a business suit and tie. Each panel shows them at a sidewalk with grass growing in the background.

PANEL 1

Shaggy is wearing a wrinkled collared shirt and jeans. Necktie is wearing a gray suit with a tie with a dot pattern.

It’s bright daytime. Shaggy, with his back turned to Necktie, is looking at and poking a smartphone, and, in the helpful way people so often do in the first panel of my cartoons, talking aloud to himself. Necktie is turning to look at, and yell at, Shaggy.

SHAGGY: I can’t find a job and I’m out of money… Time to google “food stamps.”

NECKTIE: Food stamps are for people who are genuinely poor. If you were poor, you wouldn’t own a smartphone, would you?

PANEL 2

A caption says “one week later.”

From the light, it appears to be early evening. Shaggy is wearing a plaid shirt and Black pants, and has a backpack; Necktie is wearing a pinstripe suit and a tie with horizontal stripes.

Shaggy is looking worried and has a hand on his chest; Necktie is sternly talking to, and pointing at, Shaggy.

SHAGGY: I sold my phone, but now I’m out of money again.

NECKTIE: So sell your car. No one who owns a car is poor.

PANEL 3

A caption says “one month later.”

The same two men, on a similar patch of sidewalk. Shaggy is sitting on the curb, slumping. Necktie looks very cheerful.

SHAGGY: Now I’ve got no money for food, no phone for job hunting, and no car to get to a job!

NECKTIE: Excellent! Now you’re genuinely poor!

PANEL 4

The same scene, a moment later. Shaggy, looking hopeful. Necktie grins.

SHAGGY: So now you’re okay with me getting food stamps?

NECKTIE: Nope!

TINY KICKER PANEL UNDER THE CARTOON

Shaggy is talking to Barry the Cartoonist.

SHAGGY: So how do I get food stamps, anyway?

BARRY: Call them for an appointment, then drive to their office to apply.

Mine is a tree-daddy, and I'd find much more common ground with atheists if they didn't assume that everyone with spiritual beliefs is part of some organised oppression machine like the worst bits of Christianity.

My mum is still using the ones her mum bought, but somehow every Christmas the charity shops have bargain boxes of them that have been donated. I'd love to see more people picking up object redecorating as a hobby.
