One of my favourite cartoonists. Not exactly cheerful work but incredible what she achieved with her minimal style, nothing is lost.
I'm trying, Manuel. I'm really trying to change.
I've just bought a pack of 10 C90 cassettes on Amazon so I can pirate some CDs
I have hundreds and hundreds of drawings in Procreate on my iPad. I think I've probably named 20% of them. And that's a generous estimate.
Been going through stacks of artwork and sketchbooks getting things ready for my show, finding a ton of weird stuff in old sketchbooks, like these ‘World of Milk’ things that I’m pretty sure I only sent to @badmachinery.com
Hey! Traditional publishing is broken, and it's real hard to pitch a graphic novel series right now. THEIR LOSS.

You're perpetuating the prurience-industrial complex and you're going to go to jail, then hell
I want a ban on true crime podcasts for 12 months with the perpetrators of said podcasts made to do community service filling potholes, perhaps raising the greater sum of human happiness for once in their sorry lives
These guys are entrepreneurial Britain at its best.

A picture of four butchers around the word "MEAT MEN"
I was talking to @thingsbydan.co.uk today about the sort of men who sell meat in pub car parks, and was reminded of Skipton's meat auction market stall. Then I drew this.
Hey Nick, wanna see my portfolio
That lad makes the rest of us look like wet lettuce.

Sounds like someone is entranced by the possibilities of the Beach Boys' wild '67-'77 ride
It was hard not to nibble mid-drink, wasn't it? Sends a cold shudder through me.
I'm glad I'll never have to drink from a styrofoam cup again. Horrible.
Happy birthday James. Whenever I feel like life is not happening, I try to do the opposite to what I would normally do in a given situation* to open the door to "opportunity". Sometimes this is very successful. Sometimes it is disastrous. Sometimes, a mixture of both.

You're hoping Dan will lay on some wine for the private view, right? Between you and I, he's been saying he'll "buy a case of rough red at Makro, dilute the bottles 50/50, and call it rosé". But if you BYOB this should be good.
It's superb.
He tends to do that for people 📎
