Like many creatives here I'm in danger of becoming extinct as increasing numbers of clients feed from the trough of AI slop. So I'll be promoting my posters etc a bit more. If you could support me by buying something or spreading the love that would be fab. Have a Great Tit to start the weekend. xx

It’s April 10, and that can only mean one thing. YES, THAT’S RIGHT! It’s the 370th anniversary of Jón Jónsson and his son Jón Jónsson being burnt at the stake in Iceland for attacking a priest (called Jón, obviously) with witchcraft and for casting fart spells on a girl using fart runes 🧵

A fart rune: a weird mark on a bit of paper. It looks a bit like someone standing behind a table, or an alien spaceship, or a large T shape behind/in front of a horizontal line, and two diagonal downward strokes at either end, like table legs

It's only worth going back to the Moon if it makes us look properly again at Earth, and appreciate how beautiful, precious and fragile what we have here is. The most famous images from Apollo aren't about the Moon - they're pictures of Earth. We need to stop taking our home for granted.
