Great Hi-Vis con yesterday, thanks to Ollie and everyone who helped put the show on. Being a free entry con it meant a lot of mums with young kids were there - they're not my audience (most of my books are fairly adult), but it's wonderful to see them in attendance.

I just finished reading Edge of the Grave by @robbiemorrison.bsky.social, it's an excellent crime thriller set in 1930s gangland Glasgow. Very highly recommended.

TV show idea: Mental Rentals. Every week an undercover reporter seeks out the most insanely unpleasant, most insanely expensive and generally most insane rentals on the market, punctuated by talking heads of people's craziest experiences as renters.

Count Binface said he was going to nationalise Adele, but the media isn't reporting that as if it's actually going to happen.

I assume Farage didn't turn up to his own election results because he knew every newspaper photo the next day would have him standing next to Count Binface.

Just watched The Odyssey. I thought it was excellent, maybe even a masterpiece. I haven't read the original, I'm assuming it's a fairly loose adaptation but I have no idea.

The Bayeux Tapestry isn't really from Bayeux, it was almost certainly made in England. Also it's not actually a tapestry, it's an embroidery. Basically everything is a lie, nothing is real.

I would like to see a spin-off of Doctor Who entirely about the Daleks after they have conquered Earth, set in one street and how all the Daleks that live on that street are constantly arguing with each other, having relationship dramas and threatening to exterminate each-other.

A limerick. Based on a true story.
A drawing of my as my little troll avatar, working on comics at my desk. The limerick reads "There once was a man who drew comics, because art is one of life's tonics. He continued to draw in spite of the flaw that the practice was bad economics."

I have just learned that the UK is generating 50% of all its electricity from renewable sources, primarily wind - and is building more capacity all the time. Even right now, in winter, about 10% is coming from solar. We're approaching the time when fossil fuels will be for emergency backup only.
