My kids lasted one single hour in school before ringing to be picked up. Long enough for me to relax ever so slightly. A fatal error. 😭🙈💀

So I'm thinking of doing a little series of these cards for winter greeting what you reckon? Test print I did earlier. These ones are 14.8cm x 14.8cm, can also get bigger A4 ones with envelopes.

I can’t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

A kind and thoughtful video essay about MOON from Ken. Sharing it for those who might be interested, and because it occurred to me that more people have watched this wonderful essay than probably got to see the film when it was at the cinema! 😅

I forgot he even existed tbh. Finding out he is the man on whom hopes of not-apocalypse are pinned is mad. Its like on Eastenders when nobodys watching it anymore so they bring Sharon back again.

He is reknowned for his peacemaking skills. Definitely not for any Gulf Wars. 😬

I reviewed DEAD MAIL, a frankly astounding little thriller about loneliness, music, analog systems, and the exploitation of Black musicians by their white managers and collaborators.

Weird how they put all their efforts into using technology to replace human creativity and art and then say creative arts degrees are useless.

But then people would have security *and* become more skilled. That kind of mad communist nonsense would have massive rammifications for industry, innovation, the economy, health, art, wellbeing, community cohesion, elder care, education, crime rates *and* important research like cures for cancer!

If any of you had Tarzan retooling himself as a fearless crusader against the rising tide of neo-fascism *in his fucking 90s* on *your* 2025 bingo card, then as far as I'm concerned, you can just take the pot now.

“You described Reform and other parties across Europe today as among the 'right wing equivalents of the fascists in the 1930s'. Why?”

“Because that’s what they are”

A cool charity in Hoxton that teaches & gives disadvantaged kids skills in filmmaking has asked me a question:

Any female animators want to take part in a mentorship programme they run?

They've been doing good work for 25+ years.

And one of the industries which, relying entirely on freelance workers, but requiring public audience spaces, was fucked over completely by the pandemic, without mercy or assistance, but survived, on its knees so it can now get another kick in the teeth from these soulless twats.

Corey Brotherson - ready for my close up--NOOO TOO CLOSE! @coreybrotherson.bsky.social · 1d

Hey kids!

Remember when the pandemic struck and eventually the (Tory) government told everyone to stay at home, and the arts and entertainment industries were one of the few things keeping everyone from pulling our own eyes out of our skulls from abject fear and boredom?

Remember that?

Tim Worthington @outonbluesix.bsky.social · 1d

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

A lot of people want to take pride in being British and its history, and all the privileges that come with it, without ever taking on its debts.
