Highland cattle are famous for their ability to "disco nap". Normally these brief, efficient sleeps will last between three and twenty minutes, deploying a variety of objects as pillows, including moorland boulders, cars or any particularly large dog or sheep who happens to be nearby.

Hi y'all, I'm unemployed!

We are finally moving, which means I need to find work. In the mean time, my commissions are WIDE open and donations are much appreciated! My Vgen + Ko-fi are below if you're feeling magnanimous - my hungry family appreciate it.

THREAD. Which I am giving the title 'Onions'.

I lived in the capital of the UK for two and a quarter years, at the turn of the Millennium. This fact seems a bit remarkable to me now, and I'm not sure how I lasted that long, as I'm such an unLondon person, such a lifelong bumpkin...

Speaking from personal experience, there are two major reasons my first eight books are inferior to my most recent seven:

1. During the first eight I had not yet learned, lived, written and read enough to find my flow.

2. During the most recent seven I have not been holding back on any weirdness.
One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

“THE NON-ARTIST FIXATION ON HYPERREALISM AS THE PINNACLE OF ART IS CLEARLY PART OF THE REASON SO MANY ADULTS THINK THEY CANNOT DRAW OR CONSIDER THEMSELVES TO BE FAILURES, KAWAII, FOLK ART, DOODLES, OR OTHER EASIER ENTRY POINTS ARE CONSIDERED CHILDISH, WHICH IS WHY JAPANESE DRAWING BOOKS ARE BETTER…”

I like to think that this map of all the regional names for woodlice in the UK could also be a map illustrating the new tribes of humans to be found on the same landmass after The Great Digital Crash and ensuing breakdown of society.
