Pytyr H

4 panel comic P1: a humanoid character with green skin, wearing a ratty looking jumper/sweater, and a Santa hat. The jumper has the word "XMAS" on it, with a simple drawing of the X-Men's Cyclops (his '90s design) beneath that. Our character is visible from their stomach up, as they speak directly to the reader, saying "this holiday season, my biggest wishes all--" P2: Same POV, but now the character is pointing at us with their left hand, as they continue: "--is for my artist to draw an effin' BACKGROUND for once" P3: The POV draws back, to show the character in full. The jumper/sweater goes down past their bare knees, nearly reaching the moist looking socks on the feet. The character has their arms crossed, as they stand against a plain white background P4: with the addition (and subtraction) of a few simple lines, the character now looks to be buried up totheir chest in snow. The character closes their eyes in annoyance, a cloud of vapour exiting their mouth along with their audible sigh.

Day 7. Here’s a song for all the lovers out there (watch to the end)

A photo of a large number of Christmas decoration nutcracker style soldiers on a cabinet.

"Here's forty shillings on the drum
For those who'll volunteer to come
To 'list and fight the foe today.
Over the hills and far away."

The nutcracker soldier army has assembled once more. To arms, lads!

Front page of the Marvel UK comic It's Wicked! from 2nd September 1989. A strip taking up two thirds of the page sees Slimer (from The Real Ghostbusters) having his mind read by a French magician.

A black and white page titled HOWLING HORRORS! with spooky parodic lyrics to Cyndi Lauper's "I Drove All Night". I'm not going to transcribe the whole thing unless you really want me to. Surrounding the lyrics are horror icons like bats, claws, a zombie head, gnarled trees, and in-joke gravestones.

A close up of the previous page, showing what appears to be a Gwanzulum: an egg-shaped furry creature with big eyes and sharp teeth. It is leaping up, claws held high, mouth wide open.

Making some astounding discovers in pages of "the Bump" (as we fans call it) but to go further afield: an undocumented Gwanzulum!

Good morning! I'm feeling the healthiest I've felt since Monday, but I'm still coughing and I've done something terrible to my neck. I need water, food and drugs.

A male rock ptarmigan (Lagopus muta) in winter plumage.

Ptarmigan is from Gaelic 'tarmachan' meaning "croaker". The p- was added when people mistakenly assumed it was a Greek word.

A bird forever warning people: "A werewolf!" (just in case of werewolves).

The retro Bumblebee I want!

Maybe it's the fact I posted this by accident at midnight. Maybe it's the big USA on his chest. Maybe it's because I forgot to post the link on Bluesky. Who can say why this video is eating shit?

But I think you can find it in your heart to support one of Youtube's best (me).

I did manage to log on to work (after falling asleep again for a bit). It took an hour, but I've reduced 150 emails down to 24 that I'll need to actually think about.

Only the best looking ones - Bad Machinery Italian restaurants of the 1960s were the height of chic. They had all the dishes: long thins, tubes with tomato, cheese mystery and the best of all, the timpano, which was a drum filled with meatball...

New comic: "Only the best looking ones" badmachinery.com/comic/2025-1...

I think I'll try to log in to work today. I've got a week's worth of emails to read. That'll probably take most of the day. Then I can nap.

Good morning! My lungs feel almost fully clear again! The main thing I'm struggling with this morning is the unpleasant (and unpleasantly named) post-nasal drip.

Hopefully I've made it more relatable

Classically trained.

It’s been a while but finally got a team together to make another cardboard, transforming Optimus Prime!
6 foot 3, Powermaster inspired and ready to roll out!

I've had a sick couple of days. That's sick as in, physically unwell. I spent most of yesterday resting and sleeping, and then was basically awake all night. It did give me a chance to reread the Judge Dredd Case Files covering Necropolis. That was good.
