Today is the birthday of George Reeves (Jan. 5, 1914-June 16, 1959). Actor, director, and my first Superman.

Benoît Peeters a répondu à 15 "vrai ou faux" autour de #Tintin pour "Historia" : www.historia.fr/societe-reli... Outre les biographies d'Hergé par B. Peeters et Ph. Goddin, la journaliste Anne-Louise Sautreuil conseille mon livre "Tintin au-delà des idées reçues" 🙏 @tintinologist.bsky.social #BD

The following year humans walked on the Moon. Around twenty years later, Voyager would send us the Pale Blue Dot image, our world, but now seen from the cold, distant edge of our solar system, barely a pixel, floating in a sunbeam. No wonder I grew up a space geek...

#Christmas Eve, 1968. Three humans are further from home than anyone in our entire history. As the crew of Apollo 8 rounded the dark side of the Moon, they saw a sight never seen by human eyes before: Earthrise. #Apollo #Noel

UK is VERY familiar with this song this time of year, but not sure the rest of the world is as aware of the greatest Christmas track of all time… You’re welcome! youtu.be/WM7M7zSMJcw?...

"The Gray Tree". Piet Mondrian. 1911.

I happen to share a birthday with the great Rosemary Sutcliff, born 105 years ago today. Her historical fiction books (largely what we'd now call YA) are wonderful, spotlighting life in Britain from the stone age onwards, with a lot of emphasis on Roman and Sub-Roman. 1/2

imho, this would only have validity if she'd tried being an artist herself. she did not try.

I consider myself a Wally Wood fan (with several originals of my own) but... I didn't know about this. Apparently in the early 60's Wally pitched a Sunday newspaper strip showcasing famous people, and made up some presentation pieces, like this one.

British and Australian chemists have discovered a powerful new antibiotic called pre-methylenomycin C lactone, hiding in a well-known soil bacterium. This molecule kills drug-resistant bacteria without triggering resistance. buff.ly/YlXaONo #ShareGoodNewsToo

I’m wondering if any children’s publishers need a freelance writer to write reading scheme books for them or branded picture books etc? I’ve written reading scheme books for Star Wars and Disney before! Any shares would be amazing! #BookSky #KidLit

I can't find my glasses.

Really lovely. I hope she loves them too and just doesn’t realise that other people might.

Thanks to everyone who jumped on this! If you missed your chance, I'll probably open the store again sometime in late November for Xmas-type ordering.

Just looking at work from superstar @westonfront.bsky.social and found this fun Rogue one!

This is a new initiative at Thought Bubble, where the artist guests, most of whom themselves received and benefitted from portfolio reviews at Thought Bubble, pay it forward. Open to all levels, ages and styles (from kids to professionals), bring your best finished work for a 1:1 chat. Just turn up!

I'll be a guest at Thought Bubble in November- very exciting! See you there!

Some tips for this: - If you haven't got a portfolio, you can make 8 pages by mid Nov if you start now. - Just bring your finished work. - Print it out unless its a webcomic (crappy printing is better than no printing). - Think about your storytelling - A4 p/copies are fine. - Bring your questions.

I just released SHOOT FIRST QUESTION LATER: YEAR ONE, a 40-page, full-colour zine from my first year of photography, presented in chronological order, showing my growth as I search for my voice. I'm very proud of this collection and happy to be making zines again. www.edbrisson.com/store/shoot-...

@harryshearer.bsky.social I know that correlation isn't causation, but it surely *must* be the recent release of "Tap 2", and the increased (ahem) prominence of Derek Smalls, that's led to shortages in the Sainsbury's veg aisle today...??

That’s it Sainsburys, you tell him!

Poster. Chesley Bonestell. 1930.
