The most incredible betrayal of tomorrow morning me happening right now as I refuse to go out into the dark and windy night to buy coffee filters. Her caffeine deprivation headache is HER lookout as far as now me is concerned.

I spent the weekend doing linocut and now my neck and arms ache and my index finger is all cut. I feel betrayed by art, it’s tricked me into physical exertion

Love this Edward Gorey quote: "Anything that is art is presumably about some certain thing, but is really always about something else, and it’s no good having one without the other, because if you just have the something it is boring and if you just have the something else it’s irritating.”

Did a little linocut this weekend for nearly the fiirst time in a decade. Pleased to find I mostly remembered what I was doing... less pleased to remember what this particular pursuit of art does to your poor back...

Because I just stumbled on an illustration someone posted with no identifying marks and also ENORMOUS enough for someone to probably print it at a decent size: don’t. Mark your shit, make it small and crunchy. There’s no amount of detail you wanna get across that means giving away your files.

Shades of the Mitchell & Webb ‘After The Event’ (aka Remain Indoors) sketches here — and, more pointedly, The Bed-Sitting Room. Indeed, I wonder if Antrobus and Milligan saw this.

Drank at Ye Olde Cheshire Cheese, bemoaned a tax bill, insulted America, staggered cackling up Fleet Street with a friend, admired the full moon, reflected on enjoying basically the same evening as I might have 200+ years ago in the same place

Nothing is as sweet as a substantial rebate… nothing is as bitter as the inevitable but bitter confirmation that letter was sent in error…

Hi! We've made the Put This In Your Ear Object. It is the ideal size and shape to put in your ear, feels really nice when you put it in your ear, and can be used to clean out earwax, by putting it in your ear. Just one thing, though. Under NO circumstances should you put this in your ear.

NEW DISCOMFORT BLANKET: TOMORROW!

We talk about the appeal of 'found footage' horror, looking at The Borderlands, Elliot Gardner's exemplary 2013 film of priests and technicians digging up bad stuff in a rural church.

Gentle reminder that in the late '50s, the U.S. government did not censor comics. Comics companies censored themselves.

Not sure why that crossed my mind today but there it is...

Useful info, and can recommend every video linked in the thread!
YouTube's new Restricted Mode, intended to filter "potentially mature" videos takes out 11 of my videos, including my most popular ones. None of these are mature. I even bleep my swears.

Please double check if you have restricted mode on by accident. Here's instructions to de-activate it.
Turn Restricted mode on or off on YouTube - Android - YouTube Help
Restricted mode is an optional setting that you can use on YouTube. This feature can help screen out potentially mature content that you or others using your devices may prefer not to view.  Com

Enjoying the new Mitchell and Webb reminded me how much I love Stevie Martin’s sketches… maybe she’s got the platform now to get her own show (with Lola-Rose Maxwell) commissioned youtu.be/bQYdc-FxeYg?...

It's a fantastic video too. For anyone looking for something in a related vein, Jack Saint's latest video is also really, really interesting, and also raising money for the same charity youtu.be/HKO3lFq4pC8?...

Ah, this is obviously some strange use of the word ’counter’ that I wasn't previously aware of
"Sir Keir Starmer’s new cabinet is prepared to overhaul human rights laws to tackle immigration — even if it makes his MPs feel “queasy” — as it seeks to counter Reform UK and win voters’ trust." [Sunday Times]
