Increasingly part-time comic printer (still the best tho). Increasingly full time dad/carer. S-tier trash talker. If you followed for the printing stuff get ready to see a lot about how society fails SEN kids instead. [email protected]

Paediatrician for the last two years: “the max dose of melatonin is 6mg.”
Paediatrician a couple of days ago: “well I mean you can go to ten, but I doubt it would make a difference”
Me: “if I had the energy I would do great violence on you.”

Speaking as someone who has paid off their student loan, I think it would be deeply, deeply unfair and shortsighted to… not cancel all student debt immediately. Education is a public good, for chrissake.

Feeling cute might become the joker.
Just found this tacked up at the college at which I teach, which has recently signed a deal with Anthropic, which stole 6 of my books and books by 131 colleagues.

Oh, you've been previously using a different printer have you? Concerns about their quality and reliability, are there? Hoping I'll be able to price match despite this, you say?

*looks up from knitting* How dare you?
Middle aged white men (and I’m 49, so I’m in the demographic) absolutely need ridiculous Dad Hobbies or they get squirrely. I think if you’re can’t prove you have a preexisting Dad Hobby or 2 by age 45, you get entered into a national hobby draft and get assigned one. It would solve so many things.
every time i see a white guy in their fifties radicalized by the twitter algorithm into racism and extremism i think about how it's a total failure of the youtube algorithm to instead radicalize him into home brewing, elaborate A/V setups, or DIY solar

SCHUMER says Democrats are “united” behind three DHS reforms
1/ End roving patrols; tighten the rules on warrants and require ICE to coordinate with local authorities.
2/ Enforce accountability; a uniform code of conduct.
3/ Require masks off, body cameras on, agents carry ID.

Absolute slog of a class tonight, lads. Proper “this three hour meeting could have been, and indeed is, a fourteen page chapter in the textbook” stuff. I’m going to finish my row and then I’m away for the night. Nobody touch any of the bleeds while I’m gone.

And it would still be too late for James Joyce to teach him anything.
w.b. yeats died on this day in 1939. if, instead of dying, he had begun to age again but in reverse, he would have reached his birth - i.e. become 0 years old - in 2012. Assuming that he then began ageing in the normal direction again, he would currently be 14 years old and preparing for his gcses
