“The Sheep Detectives” is not your average talking animal movie. This family-friendly film, featuring voices like Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Patrick Stewart, follows a flock solving a murder mystery.

Right now the news is so bleak, the only reason I open this app is to read stories from Tom. Case in point this weird and hilarious piece. Read it while it’s free.

For me this was the gateway drug (inter dimensional portal?) to this author’s work. Definitely worth a read.

Fungal Misadventure: a short story in the form of a Bluesky thread... "Have you ever wondered?" he asked, as they picked mushrooms in the forest near her house. "How many people died from fungal misadventure during prehistory before we found out which of these were safe to eat?"
Some mushrooms I photographed on a mossy log on Dartmoor in October

THREAD. My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments. I've collected his work here...
Bridget the cat infiltrates the 'Abbey Road' cover shoot and becomes THE definitive fifth Beatle.
