1/ Maybe it's a strange day to share a "death positive" #documentary, but believe me, it will awaken in you a powerful reason for giving thanks. Co-produced by my dear friend Barry Koch and his business partner Jason Zamer, it's called "A Butterfly Has Been Released" (TGBeyond).

@bschillace.brandyschillace.com F--king #AI slop gets past HOW MANY levels of checking?
"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

It’s my birthday! A really wonderful gift would be if you could listen, like and share my new podcast series, Uprising: The Civil Wars (and, if you have enjoyed it, give it 5 ⭐️)

In the words of Henrietta Maria, Merci.

@sugarcubedog.bsky.social is right; I've been following @holgertiedemann.bsky.social for months now and they are brilliant at finding the losers, haters, trolls and bigots.
This place has been flooded with maga accounts and if you’re not following his block recommendations you’re missing out. 👇

Every book you by from #Amazon has two effects:

1. Makes B*zos, the richest man in the world, richer
2. Takes support away for independent bookstores

"Jeff B*zos, Amazon founder and space investor, is worth $239 billion as of July 2025 (Forbes)."
Black Friday reminder: You can support independent bookstores and get great deals without lining the pockets of billionaires 😌

If they can make this as a MODEL they need to sell it as a CANDLE
This wax model of a human head from the 19th century shows the internal structure of the brain, complete with its protective covering, the meninges, the eye, cheek, neck and jaw. Wax models were used for teaching anatomy to medical students or as part of popular anatomy shows.

#Comic and #Cartoon lovers; a signing by @jambookshopuk.bsky.social at the @cartoonmuseum.bsky.social on December 6th!
Don't forget!
I'll be signing books & prints at @cartoonmuseum.bsky.social on Dec 6th at 1-3pm.

My new comic collection book won't be stocked in many places & the museum shop will be where to grab one in central London.

Come & support an underappreciated place in London
