Oof - what an exhausting and exhilarating day at the Anarchist Book Fair - hats off to organisers, participants and totally engaged punters Very heartening to see so many people devoted to local and global action to make the world a fairer place. And I hope we provided a few chuckles along the way

Jonny’s posts are great - I always enjoy learning more about comics and creators I should be more familiar with

Here’s something for #BatmanDay comics.edpinsent.com/tag/illegal-...

Taking a quick break from the Anarchist Book Fair to pop round and pay tribute in Hercules Road (Whenever I’m in this bit of London I think fondly of the bit in Geoff Ryman’s fascinating 253 where Blake’s ghost pops out at Lambeth North and is astonished at the modern-day vision of London)

We’re all set up at the Anarchist Book Fair on Leake Street - surrounded by #graffiti, #zines and anarchy. (So what else is new?) Here until 6! Come and see us!

Really looking forward to getting my mitts on this - I loved the minicomics but never thought I’d see the complete story

TOMORROW! We'll be tabling at the #AnarchistBookFair in the legendary Leake Street Tunnels. The second pic is from last year's fair in Shoreditch - just to give you an idea of what to look out for. But this time we'll be surrounded by graffiti. Busman's holiday innit. See you all there!

Any more for any more? I’m thinking pacey, noirish, strong voice…

There is surely an attrition rate for young artist publishers and zine makers, but there are also people who commit to publishing as a way of life and keep at it. I love when I start to see these people at fairs and fests throughout the year. They turn into friends, colleagues and fellow travelers.

How's your fridge-scape looking this season? (BTW, in the latest of my incendiary and internet-breaking takes, anyone who uses 'serve' or 'pour' as a noun is dead to me)

An unexpected morning listening to Roy Budd, Laurie Johnson, John Barry - now got the urge to dig up an solo 60s espionage RPG...

Very nice illo by Owen Freeman from a recent FT feature on surveillance by Lea Ypi: "A picture of her grandmother posted on social media sent the author to the archives of Albania’s former security services — and raised difficult questions about who watches us today"

Thai cat treatises — called “Tamra Maew” — pair illustrations of auspicious felines with poetic notes: one has “eyes like dewdrops on a lotus,” another’s are “lit like fireflies, applied liquid gold”. Pages of a fine 19th-century example here: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/tamra-maew/

Today is World Suicide Prevention Day, with a focus on changing the narrative around suicide. Suicide isn’t inevitable. Thoughts can be interrupted. Lives can be saved. If you think someone is suicidal, take action, interrupt their thoughts and tell them you care. ❤️💙

The second pair of pinholes from the Radio Telescope. Understanding that exposure was steady at about 25 seconds allowed me to start fiddling about with bit of glass in front of the pinhole. More in ALT I’d like to take photos that look like what the object does, or what the object sounds like.

We're VERY excited to unveil Ed Pinsent's Colossive Package - a limited-edition featuring all three of @soundprojector.bsky.social's #ColossiveCartographies, PLUS a one-of-a-kind original, signed sketch card. Grab it for the frankly ridiculous price of £8 at bit.ly/edpinsentpackage #zines #comics
