"All I said, Niles, was that it sounded like the poor fellow could use a night away from life's troubles, how was I to know that the circus WAS life's troubles for him?"

"Perhaps his tiny car would have provided some indication? Or did he instead come to your session by unicycle?"

"Oh ha HA."

We keep coming back to his but society thirsts for Surf Dracula. 22-episode seasons. Monsters-of-the-week. High camp teen dramas. Cowboys who know martial arts. Shows where the plot is just 'handsome guy has a cool car.'

We must rebuild the CW.
Look, I appreciate this. TV needs more of this. Let’s have fun again. Seriously things are so bad in the industry and everywhere. Let’s all turn on stuff at night together and go “that was insane” and then surprise there are 20 more episodes and the characters don’t remember being in orbit.

Cheeky wee Krang I drew on the bus back to Aberdeen from Perth. I was aiming for my own take on the Mutant Mayhem style, definitely still refinding my feet with digital drawing, I think little exercises like this are helping.

Amazon's changing the way the Kindle works on Tuesday, so if you want to download and de-DRM your books, you have until the 26th to get it done. I wrote a quick how-to, for anyone who is interested: next.content.town/p/kindle-drm...
The Kindle DRM Deadline is Approaching!
On the 26th, Amazon is disabling a feature that makes backing up your Kindle eBooks easy. You have a couple of days to download them before it’s too late

Recently bought an old Galaxy tablet so I could get some practice doing some more digital drawing. Been reacquainting myself with Clip Studio and ended up with a Haunter while playing with brushes. Thought it came out not too bad in the end

I saw this sketch when I was waaay too young back in the 90s. It had a profound effect on me. Truly haunts me to this day, nearly 30 years later.

It's worth knowing that Katherine is also interpersonally one of the kindest and most genuine operators out there. The kind who remembers a bookseller's name even though she's met 1,000s of us, and who takes the time after her assembly to talk to the special needs kid w too many questions.

When Animorphs ended, fans were vocal about how they didn't like the depressing ending.

K.A. Applegate responded with amongst the most brutal letters I've read.

It takes a generational talent to tell your fans "If you're mad at me because that's what you have to take away from Animorphs, too bad."

Picked up Undiscovered Country vol 5. Going to need a re-read of the previous vols ‘cos outside of “enjoyably batshit*” I need a refresher on what’s been going on. Really looking forward to this, as penultimate volumes are a reliable source of stuff kicking right off.

A Wee Hopkinsville Goblin.
Trying to get a little more drawing done after basically slipping out of the habit for the better part of a year. Made a little notebook with some coloured card to make the' blank page' a little less daunting. Might do a wee run of cryptids/monsters.

sure you could read the 'Bluesky doesn't do irreverence' think-piece

or you could explore our rigorously scientific series of posts making a 19th-century hog get progressively bigger
things are only looking üp

and by things, we mean everyone, because the inevitable has happened and the hog now has height as well as width
