Inktober Monster 10: Mystic Allosaurus This dinosaur hunted in packs, sliced through flesh using its sharp, serrated teeth and could produce a shiny coin from behind your ear to the delight of all. #inktober #inktober2026 #mystical

Inktober Monster 5: The Slapper Hey fans of modern slang! When people say “watch out for that monster, it slaps!” they absolutely do not mean it’s exceptionally satisfying or cool. #inktober #inktober2026 #smack

Inktober Monster 4: The Conscience Cactus When you do something a little bit bad, you may feel a prick of conscience. When you do something REALLY bad, you’ll attract the attention of one of these spiky fellows who will help you feel ALL the pricks. #inktober #inktober2026 #cactus

Inktober Monster 3: Mini Monster Thanks to progress, many monsters have shrunk down to a more manageable size. They are portable and can fit into your pocket. Just like a phone! Ofc, they’re bad for you, can make your life very difficult, and will tell you a lot of lies. And so will the monsters!

Inktober Monster 2: The Sand King Remember that sandcastle you stomped on when you were 5? That was the home of the Sand Prince. Anyway he’s all grown up now and he’s looking for YOUR house so he can return the favour. #inktober #relic

October monster 1: The Goast Obviously the Goast is part goat, part ghost. Less obviously it’s also part toast, so it’s scary, and loud, but also delicious with a number of toppings both sweet and savoury. (The apple prompt didn’t work for me so I used Morktober prompt - goat) #inktober2026

Microsoft is planning to build three massive AI data centres in Leeds. It’ll drain thousands of litres of water from the River Aire and become the city's biggest carbon emitter. We can still stop the council's sign-off, but we need more voices. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Thomas House of Dublin exhibiting the pro-human solidarity that all of us should demonstrate.
SO FOR THE FUTURE (LITERALLY) WE'RE NOT ACCEPTING AI POSTERS OR FLYERS FOR THE PUB.

We're right next to Ireland's biggest Art College, lads. It's not a good look.

WE UNDERSTAND BANDS CAN BE SKINT BUT RELYING ON SOME EARTH KILLING APP FROM SOME PAEDO ISLAND BILLIONAIRE IS NOT THE WAY. WE GOT BY WITHOUT IT AND WE'LL GET BY AGAIN.

IF YOU'RE STUCK WE'LL HELP. (YES IT HAS BEEN USED HERE BEFORE BUT CONSIDER THIS THE START OF THE END OF IT.)

THANKS, HUMANS.

I did an interview with Contact an Author. I made a case for the return of boredom: "We’re not allowed to be bored anymore, and boredom is the mother of an active imagination, and the urge to DO things and create things rather than just consume things." More: contactanauthor.co.uk/interview/11...

My book — which is about how the media works, when it doesn’t, and why it matters — comes out in paperback in August and I want to visit as many bookshops as possible to talk about it. Are you a bookshop person or do you know a bookshop person who’d be interested?
