I'll admit I got bloody sick of seeing curling a few weeks ago but this is impressive

I was only on a "Photography plan" for £15 a month so maybe I'm just too small a fish to try retain?

Well, that was surprisingly easy. Had to click passed a few offers but they didn't try any of the money-grabbing stuff I've heard about

That was a good shout. Managed to sort it after turning ad-blocker off 👍

Seriously thinking of going back to Substack. Whether I like it or not, it's where the audience is. Engagement through Patreon has been practically non-existent since I switched a few weeks ago. Like, barely any impressions, fewer interactions

The Adobe Plans page has been loading for a few minutes now. Wonder if they deliberately bork the performance on this page because they know what people are trying to do?

So they’ll make up some bullshit costs to make you stay? I’ll look at doing similar if needed

Adobe sub is up for renewal soon so I’m gonna try cancel it. Wish me luck to see if I can make it out of that bloody maze…

Illustration of a shouting young man.

This house will become a shrine, and punks and skins and rastas will all gather round and hold their hands in sorrow for their fallen leader. And all the grown-ups will say, "But why are the kids crying?" And the kids will say, "Haven't you heard? Rick is dead! The People's Poet is dead!"

Had to get a new Ring doorbell, ordered a different model and annoyingly the screw holes for the mounts are in different places.

Great product design… 🤦‍♂️

Oh hell yeah, you read that correctly 🙌 books.disney.com/book/the-art...

The Art of Gravity Falls is finally coming, gang. It lands the week before my birthday too so I know what I’m getting!!

The next page of my comic dropped today www.patreon.com/posts/splore...

No wonder it's a lower price than their other laptops. I reckon a charger will cost £150+. Fuckers

I wanna know who found this one first. Pop would be happy

[We see a close up of a young white male, tanned, white teeth, coiffed hair clearly an influencer on social media. It is an image such as you see when social media posts are shown on the news. In the corner of the screen is named a location: DUBAI. He is staring slightly off-camera for several silent panels of the comic strip. His eyes move slightly. He is having a thought.] From off-screen a newsreader’s commentary comes: NEWSREADER: Extraordinary images here of an expat in Dubai [The influencer’s eybrows raise slightly] …Having their first ever geopolitical thought. [CUT TO a BBC news scene. The BBC newsreader CLIVE MYRIE is talking to an interviewee next to the screen showing the social media influencer’s face. The interviewee’s name is David Jones]. CLIVE MYRIE: To explain the significance of this moment we’re joined by David Jones, our Expat Thoughts correspondent DAVID JONES: Clive, this is momentous It was caught on film at the end of an Instagram post titled: ‘Dubai Is Brilliant’. [Pointing at the screen, the influencer’s expression still the same] You can clearly see in the eyebrows here, the dawning realisation that there *might* be something in the world beyond his dickhead self. It marks a *huge* departure from all the Dubai Expat’s previous thoughts. CLIVE MYRIE: Which are…? DAVID JONES: You've Got To Get Yourself Out Here Mate, Everything Is So Clean, I Don't Have To Pay Taxes, I Am Incurious As To Why I Do Not Have To Pay Taxes, and Spa. CLIVE MYRIE: And might we see an expansion of these new Thoughts in coming days? DAVID JONES: I think we can expect to see: “I Deserve To Be Airlifted By A Country I Pay No Tax To” CLIVE MYRIE: Mmm. [Ends]

Gang, whilst I’m just hitting a stride with my current project, I’ve started making notes for another project 😅

"Call it what it is, stolen artwork," @drewmillward.bsky.social 👌

Building up a nice buffer of scheduled pages. I'm not sitting on these waiting for them to go out but having five weeks to keep on working to build up that schedule even further is feeling pretty good

Happy birthday @lurkmoophy.bsky.social 🎉

I still have my DS Lite right here in my desk drawer, still works and gets some play time every now and then 👌

I thought I was gonna get my arse kicked fighting Brock earlier today and I wiped the floor with him. That gym badge was like taking candy from a baby

I recently switched to Patreon and my only criticism is the discoverability is pretty lacking on there. I’ve gone from some good interactions with posts to barely anything. I want to stay off Sub but it’s where the audience seems to be 😞

It doesn't say you have to keep the beer and tacos down so yeah, I'll take a day of throwing up while running for $50mil

THIS SUNDAY, The Sunday Times has brought back The Funday Times as part of their reading campaign and The Phoenix is involved! The Funday Times was a weekly comic supplement, all big and newspapery, an absolute joy to read and an instrumental part of a lot of our childhoods 🤩

It's only been a couple of weeks so still early but so far my experience on Patreon has been absolute wank in terms of engagement
