I have been traveling and today I present to you...the thing I saw in the Frankfurt airport.

Is it efficient? Undeniably. Does it probably work better than the normal way? Oh certainly. Produce less of a mess? Probably?

But the existence of Condiment Udders gives me a deep, aghast disquiet.

The first thing to say when someone tells you they have a Totenkopf tattoo is “why aren’t you at the tattooists right now having that Totenkopf tattoo removed?”

New story day!

"Phantom View" is about a son caretaking for his father, and discovering a blurry person in all their family photos that he has no memory of. The same figure is in all his dad's paintings--and the figure may be in the house with them right now.
Phantom View - Reactor
A disabled son care-taking for a disabled father try to understand the mysterious blur haunting them.

Abundance is never a justification for greed. The witch looks around the corner of the now and harvests the hedge for tomorrow's ailments. She has no temptation to take the birds' share, nor the Faery's tithe. The witch's way refuses rapacity. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

If I were running Labour comms I would commission an app called 'Will the Tories/Reform deport you?' then let the reactions on TikTok and Instagram do their work.

If ever there was proof that follower count is immaterial, if every one of my followers bought a single £0.99 book from me and never even read it, I'd recover from the financial loss of nursing my dying dog for 18 months.

A reminder that I don't just draw maps and abstract, Rorschach-esque art! I also take commissions for specific drawings! Here are a few examples, and then one more on the next post in the thread.

If you would like to commission a drawing, here's my website:

V is for Veil is one of the entries brilliantly illustrated by @landisblair.bsky.social for A is for Arsenic: An ABC of Victorian Death. While doctors railed against the toxicity of breathing through a crape veil, some women welcomed it as a shelter from unwelcome social interactions.
