It's literally a transcript of the press conference. 10/10. No notes.

It's early days yet but I've done the cover for Andrew Mbaruk and Wet Jet Seymour's next project 'Blackout'

This is what you get when you have a teenage son and you've asked what he wants from the shop

It's me, I'm the nice one

@reporteramber.bsky.social Hi Amber!

This is a fantastic response to Charlie Kirk's assignation and the continuing fallout- not just from the act itself, but the culture that contributed to it.

I've almost finished The Hollow Work: Silksoft Mass. I don't know what i'm going to do with it once I have.

Ways to get your own tape label: -Inherit a tape label from your parents -Do a master’s degree in cassette management -Get hired as a head cleaner & work your way up -Get demoted from running a CD label -Find an old tape deck -Buy an existing tape label for 9 billion € -Start a pretend tape label

Reasons to make music: -killing time before something more interesting happens -get to generate download codes -spite -trying to communicate with dolphins -spreading a sinister ideology -need hold music for company’s service line -woke -not good at podcasting -want to find out what a “flanger” is

The solution is clearly to double the number of testicles per young man through Dr Brinkley patented xenotransplantation of goat testes! Improves virility, hardiness and balance!

I was at the Ajuntament trying to get a card that lets me access the town dump so I can get rid of some old stuff and while I was waiting I heard this great album on Tabs Out. ephem-aural.bandcamp.com/album/juilli...

for #BandcampFriday I also wanted to remind folks that I made a nifty feed comprised entirely of bluesky posts about ambient / drone / longform music that contain links to bandcamp pages happy listening: bsky.app/profile/did:...

Sensitive Shotgun 2026 94 min A mafia soldier, as a hobby, gets into field recording and becomes relatively successful in the local experimental scene by arranging sounds that law-abiding artists would never be able to capture, until a ruthless DA and the caporegime both read their Wire profile.

🌟 IT LIVES! 🌟 The UK Comics Creator Survey is BACK, baby! Here to gather up, analyse and disseminate your data to help uplift the comics world, like if Robin Hood was a statistician or something. ukcomicscreators.org.uk

This is a fantastic album, I'm beyond honoured to have inspired the track title which kicked it off.

Hivemind, anyone know any Leeds/Yorkshire based comic writers? It's for a fantastic project that the British Library has been working on with care experienced and looked after children in Leeds, making a comic about their experiences. I would love to get some people down to support the launch.

Very excited to say I’ve got a new album up for pre-order today, via the wonderful @waysideandwoodland.bsky.social. It’s the first ever physical release by my Form Group project (despite that starting back in 2004) and it’s called Provincial Echo. digital.waysideandwoodland.com/album/provin...

To the tune of 'This is your life' "More Hollow.... Work"

When I was announced as the lead in a Doctor Who spinoff in 2023 Graham Linehan tweeted about me for TWO DAYS, tagging the BBC and others to say that I am pro-child abuse and they shouldn't work with me.

They're still playing. The word 'Tuff' has been added to their repertoire - if things are good they're Tuff. And yes, I had the spelling confirmed.

Just saw that the Wire Magazine is 500 years old today, which is pretty impressive considering how niche a lot of the music they cover is.

Unwisely, I've launched this campaign on a day when I'm about to get my eyes dilated for medical reasons so can't look at screens for a while. In short - back Worrywart now so I can be pleasantly surprised when I recover the gift of sight!

My son's playing D&D downstairs with two of his friends (he's the DM) and it must be going well becasue he keeps unironically yelling 'THIS IS SO HYPE'

Great haul I got from GoshFest @goshcomics.bsky.social last night. Also very good to chew the rags and confab with @patrickwray.bsky.social , @johnnyriordan.bsky.social , @douglasnoble.bsky.social , @marxtafford.bsky.social and @grthink.bsky.social . Adam Falp's newie also pictured.

everyone who hasnt bought one of these has done a great evil

Got this (Fast Furiously: Drift My Cars, The Yakuza Said) from @clordtc.bsky.social at Gosh yesterday and it's FANTASTIC

Had the best day yesterday at @goshcomics.bsky.social as part of Gosh!Fest. They've got a few copies of each of Skulls As Eggs and Telephone but they've all gone so now I need to make some more.

Just finished in 25mins a piece of work that had taken me 3hrs to do during the actual week. Apparently all I need is to sit with my back to a Warhammer Tournement and have Container bashing my ears up to become wildly productive.

In the future, when a jazz musician is improvising, they'll be able to access chatgpt via an rounded, unobtrusive, context-aware device worn on a lanyard around the neck, and chatgpt will offer iterative suggestions to the musician about what notes or jazz stuff to do next.

I have spent HOURS printing and folding these things. If making comics wasn't so much fun, and so interesting, I'd pack it in. Hopefully see some/any if you at @goshcomics.bsky.social tomorrow, I'll be there 5-6 with these and whatever else I can rustle up.

Bleeding Cool have put up a preview for tomorrow's Gosh!Fest and my name's in the Summary bit at the top because of me releasing two new projects which made me say "I'm notable, baby" to my 13yr old daughter who'd have lost respect for me if she had any left bleedingcool.com/comics/tomor...

Bumping this for the late shift. My fully peer reviewed podcast is out in the world today! I hope you’ll read this thread and listen to the show.

From this week’s Beano.

For those looking forward to Small Press Festival at @goshcomics.bsky.social on Saturday or looking forward to new printed comics from me, I should have both Telephone and Skulls As Eggs ready. I'll be there 5-6pm looking balder than in photo (courtesy of @frasergeesin.bsky.social)

DON'T FORGET THIS SATURDAY AT @goshcomics.bsky.social FROM 5-6pm HOUR OF THE HUNKS (me and @douglasnoble.bsky.social and @frasergeesin.bsky.social and @seanazz.bsky.social and @marxtafford.bsky.social and @danwhite.bsky.social and @patrickwray.bsky.social)

In a rush of preposterous ambition, I've somehow decided to get Skulls As Eggs finished in time for Saturday too. 'Skulls As Eggs' is Me Vs @seanazz.bsky.social , and a continuation of the Jetwash Trampoline detournements)

your crazy ass stupid post just fucked up the whole world . hope it was worth the likes. hope youre enjoying the clicks

Issue twenty of our newsletter is out now, ft. Tony Blair on the dancefloor, Nine on the car stereo, "Lou Reed" on David Bowie, Cliff Steele in the void, big boys piñatas, rap albums, heresey, and a @danmcdaid.bsky.social exclusive! mindless-ones.ghost.io/britains-six...

Have been working on the current Hollow Work project whilst rewatching True Detective and also battling my dog. This will be a full two-page spread eventually, like the others.

What music would be a good entry point for a new listener? What films would be a good entry point for a new watcher? What food would be a good entry point for a new eater?

Looking forward to being part of Gosh!Fest 2025, along with a plethora of talented indie comics folk. Come along to London’s (the world’s?) best comic shop @goshcomics.bsky.social on Saturday 30 August

"We ran it ChatGPT..." or similar is now the fastest way to stop me from reading an email. My brain just slides off the words. It's basically saying "we didn't want to spend any time on it and don't care if any nuance is lost on the way"

Finally started work lettering 'Telephone' last night, here's a page from it. If all goes to plan it'll be ready for @goshcomics.bsky.social Small Press Festival on the 30th Aug

Saw Eddigton last night with Bill and we both like it a lot. Plus I got the Cineworld Unlimited goodie bag because the person whose seat it was under never showed up. I now have a Smurf drinking vessel, two badges and some sweets.
