If you ever wonder if I, Phoebe hedges, am tough with a high tolerance for bullshit Firstly I work in comics Secondly 4 different tattoo artists winced when my artist said what needle they used, but I sat for 5 hours “like a rock” and actively spent most the appt laughing 🪨💁🏻‍♀️✨

Happy #InternationalLesbianDay from Worst Man’s wonderful lesbians, Merritt and Galatea

Yes OF COURSE I’m taking issues 1 & 2 of Total Recall of the Heart to my tattoo artist today because they were the first non friend I told about the series and their enthusiasm was one of the major reasons I finally got the confidence to kickstart issue 1

Destination Venus sells comics in Harrogate! @destinationvenus.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

We sold out on the first day of publication. US friends, you don't want to sleep on this book - one of the perks of owning the store is that I got my copy, and so can attest that it's one of the most fun books I've read this year. Go get it!!!!!!!!

I have been a guest at conventions where, during the pre-con walk through, my handler has pointed out the bar and mentioned how some guests are "more fun" and "get asked back," then names only men. Because a lot of female guests aren't comfortable hanging out around alcohol with strangers.

Stop getting addicted to starting things; get addicted to finishing things. This is all my creative advice boiled down. The initial honeymoon phase of an idea is indeed intoxicating and intense but ultimately: fleeting.

Give me the opportunity to design a costume at your own peril tbh; I’ve had this project for less than a week and it’s not due until May of next year but like, im out here on my lunch break because the feral fabric goblin in my brand demands to see ANOTHER idea (I’ve had 5 already 😭)

…made “Debenhams” their flagship name/brand to rehabilitate their image. In theory, it is an online department store, kinda like ASOS, but like, it’s now no longer a bastion of good quality. It’s a move that fills me with deep deep rage.

phoeBOO hedges 🎃 @phoebehedges.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Oh I know this one! And I hate it! Debenhams as we grew up with is dead after it went bankrupt; BUT the brand name was bought by the boohoo group, who eventually (after fast fashion scandals, including but not limiting slave wages and horrifically unsafe conditions in Covid)…

Also, any UK chums who have already read Worst Man, I implore you; PLEASE leave a review somewhere (if you liked it). Amazon, Goodreads, whichever bookseller you bought it from, yelling at locals like a person possessed. Word of mouth is CRUCIAL for independent books. Thanks ❤️

@brandtandstein.com; should Worst Man ever get made into a muppet movie, who's the ONE character who should be played by a human actor (my gut says Valentina, but, counterpoint.... Waldo?)

Normally I am going to bed as the sun comes up, not leaving my house. But such is the rock and roll life of comics I suppose (come see me @pridecaf.bsky.social I’ve got different flavours of gay comics and zines!!)

Like, we had to walk past the coach w/the +1’s assigned seat on the way to the coach with mine. They obvs made a plan that they were taking mine before even arrived

phoeBOO hedges 🎃 @phoebehedges.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

(it’s bad enough the “luggage” rack doesn’t fit the trolley, and that the seat next to me is booked too, but the occupant TURNED UP with a +1 who had a seat in a different carriage and then asked me if it “helped” if I WERE THE ONE TO SWITCH. Cheeky af of them to have had that planned 😑)

Thanks; yeah I know logically I just gotta stick with it, just, combo of not feeling cute in the outfit + feeling like I vastly overestimated what I could do (+ a bunch of other bits) just did not make for a fun time. At least when I get knackered at the pool, my swimsuit is cute, y’know? 🥲

phoeBOO hedges 🎃 @phoebehedges.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Oh both, but mostly the latter. The bad outfit are one thing (I am just not an athletic wear person) , but feeling like a fool (and then a gross unfit fool) is not a feeling I’ve enjoyed
