All of this is Marie Enger’s fault.

An overdue happy birthday - here’s my version in my style. Style?
Sure, let’s call it a style.

When it comes to trans rights, the BBC has been reversing through the marketplace of ideas, smashing into fruit carts. But it's interesting that its conservative critics still regard the broadcaster as a font of pro-trans propaganda. How odd! Perhaps a few more concessions will win them over?

Always amused when my workplace gets deliveries from "DEVICE TECHNOLOGIES", quite possibly the most nothing-to-see-here-officer company name ever.

Some thirty inches from my nose
The frontier of my Person goes,
And all the untilled air between
Is private pagus or demesne.

Stranger, unless with bedroom eyes
I beckon you to fraternize,
Beware of rudely crossing it:
I have no gun, but I can spit.

You can love someone you love even if you don't love yourself🏳️‍⚧️
But if you love yourself, you can love both yourself and the person you love. Your love becomes twofold.
So take care of yourself.
Your soul is beautiful.

Talk about horror versions of Pokémon and Animal Crossing reminded me of this thing I did a while back, figuring that AC: New Horizons was ripe for a cosmic horror spin-off…

Vulgar, horny and threatening | deadSimpleTech In short, there are three major avenues of opposition to the tech industry: the vulgar, the horny and the threatening, mapping to attacks on the tech industry's luminaries from below, horizontally and...

"The modern tech industry is, by the standards of capitalism, unusually dependent on a cult of personality built around a few extremely rich, very stupid white men ... attacking the tech industry means stripping these people of their aura of invulnerability"

Front of The Oldest House from CONTROL with "BIG TESCO" scrawled across in a title card fashion.  The Tesco extra logo can be seen on the front of the building.

God, it's the worst when you have to do the Big Shop and end up being chosen by the Service Barcode Scanner to become the new Manager in order to vanquish the infestation of otherworldly shoplifters.

Ugh.

There's something just innately satisfying to me about the double-tap of the space bar when finishing a thought that I'm trying to untrain in myself.

Thankfully, most word processing software can fix it automatically for me when I slip up...

I think KEEPING a job in videogames is probably a more valuable skill at this point.

4-panel strip illustrating the opening lyrics of COLD REACTOR by Everything Everything:

So we built the mountain
By digging an almighty hole
And on our backs, we carried every rock and stone
But now, the hole is deeper
Than anybody ever planned
And we're blocking out the sun

Using #makeaterriblecomicday2025 as an excuse ignore the internal critic and get something out of my head.
