Is America part of the Axis of Evil now, or just a high-profile sponsor?

Today's visit to #RejectionIsland rather smarts, as it's a cartoon that wasn't used but ended up being somewhat prophetic.

One of mine from the previous Private Eye. New issue out today.

Odd one today. Rainbow upside down and in the wrong place (unless it was in the right place but the planet was upside down, or something).

I nearly didn't post this one from Private Eye. Then thought 'Go on. @justrena.bsky.social would have loved it'. I hope so.

It's a new Private Eye week. For those missing the summer, here's one of mine from the previous (bumper holiday) edition.

Don't need no phone at all

We've got a thing, and that's a-called radar love
We've got a wave in the air

This week's visit to #RejectionIsland, via Bayeux, or maybe Canterbury, or perhaps the British Museum.

Sporadic visits to #RejectionIsland at the moment thanks to the holidays, but we're there today - dressed up in Generated Low Output Voltage Emitters and rescuing a cartoon that didn' get used.

Pleased to have a couple of cartoons in the Private Eye summer special. Here's one of mine from the previous edition.

Profound experiences these eclipses. A couple of hours staring directly at the sun yesterday through a colander helmet has changed my view of the world.

Almost #eclipse time. Deploy your safety measures.

One of the children's workshops this weekend involved creating fantastic amalgamated animals. To give them a steer, we provided some examples. Of the ones I sent, this was my favourite.

Herne Baying again. Another great weekend by the sea with @procartoonists.bsky.social and #BeachCreative. Big boards and general silliness.

What are you up to this weekend? Why, you're going to Kent of course - for exhibitions, workshops and real, live cartoonists gambolling loose on the streets.

Digging back three years for today's visit to #RejectionIsland, in the week an OpenAI agent went rogue.

Don't own the squirrel. That's the boy's class mascot we happened to be custodians of at the time. Thankfully, as responsible historians, we have a squirrel-sized κόρυς in case situations like this present themselves.

If the *real* World Cup was the friends you made along the way, Argentina lost so many times over.

To #RejectionIsland, where "I'm from the north" looks set to knock "My father was a toolmaker" off the top of the irritation chart.

Ah, well. At least we'll get a play out of it.

I've not had a cartoon work equally well across twitter, bluesky, LinkedIn and Instagram before. Nice that, even in this divided world, people from right and left, professional and casual can all enjoy old Don getting hoofed in the pods by Tintin. Heartwarming.
