2026 challenge for people who aren’t parents to understand that, yes, parents are going to be significantly delayed responding to anything nonessential during summer holidays.

The makers of Wrexham Pilsner have a golden opportunity right here.

New incredible Madonna album, new incredible Charli album, new incredible Olivia album, Madonna x Kylie, iconic Charli set, and now the tease of Girls Aloud archive releases, all within the space of 2 months? Whatever the universe is on right now it is doing something very, VERY right.

Jaw5. The pitch doesn’t matter.

It’s such a boneheaded analysis. Like, yes, of course your site going to skew left because most the user base is escaped Twitter due to the whole ‘overrun by literal nazis’ thing. if we didn’t have to do that we’d still be on Twitter. It’s the entire reason you have a site.

Guess which chump is going to end up rebuying a complete set of boardgames he already owns, because pretty?

Watching Charli’s performance from Lollapolooza, and: GOOD LORD. Silently staring down a crowd of tens of thousands of people for 5 minutes as the David Cronenberg speech from No One Lasts Forever is a generationally great moment.

The sequel to one of my absolute favourite children’s comics of all time, right here!

I’m SO fascinated to see what happens with superhero stories when they start going into the public domain over the next few years. Batman & Superman are up early, with a lot of heavy hitting villains like Joker, Catwoman, etc. following soon after.

Mrs Westerman & Mrs Banks at Boston Spa Comprehensive. Everything you could hope for in English teachers. We used to have such great conversations about what we were reading, and they were so good at encouraging you to argue against them.

Actually, on the subject of comics in the classroom: One big hurdle I’ve found is teachers lacking confidence in drawing. I cannot recommend Ed Emberley’s how to draw books enough for this. He has a whole range, but Make A World & Faces are the two I’d start with.

I haven’t had the pleasure of reading this yet, but this is out in a few weeks, and I’m certain it’s going to be brilliant!

Currently looking for jobs, and already experiencing cold sweats trying to figure out how to explain ’makes comics’ is relevant experience for anything.

Something weird I keep hearing from US media: They keep talking about when the Trump presidency is over, and restoring trust, etc. and, like… they do realise it’s over, right? Theres‘s no coming back from this?

I worry that I’m nostalgic for the period when I was a child, and - as we all know - nostalgia is a vicious & false trap. And then I remember that they made cartoons for Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Toxic Avenger & Little Shop of Horrors, and think that’s actually awesome.
