This has surprised me as much as hearing tonight that Tennessee Williams only died in 1983, meaning he was alive at the same time as Serena and Venus, the other tennisy Williams

I feel like it's hard to get across to my English pals that if the Taoiseach **made a point of insisting to the press** that they put Irish flags all over their house, and made sure to 'always' sit by one in their office, then they would immediately, and forever, be tainted as a massive weird freak.

Publication day for “About Time”! It seems to have got the horology world very excited (see review below). I hope some of you might take a look to learn about something so absolutely central to our existence - you literally can’t imagine it not existing, because without time, there’d be no thought

A jury of my peers? TWELVE murderers?!

"Iago first said 'Put money in thy purse’ at the premiere of Othello on Nov 1st 1604. You'd only need to put $1.1 million in said purse every single day since to match Bezos’ total".

Illuminated comics are always great, this one particularly so. Enjoy! I didn't clip my fav panel because it's a spoiler, but it's only ten pages so you can get there and enjoy it yourself!

Comics are good.

Dean Burnett is a neuroscientist and writer, and he's written some great books that would be worth checking out

Comics are good.

Amplify trans voices and make space for trans art! We're raising money for a body-mapping project featuring trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming artists. I'm really excited about Transcend, and I'd love to see it hit its next milestone today: gofund.me/aea4e925
