95% of shark attacks are unprovoked but 5% are provoked.

I've become increasingly uncomfortable with the direction the agency has taken, including some of the clients it has signed and the public positions taken by its leadership. Apparently they’re now representing Suella Braverman. If you’re a literary agent and would like to have a chat, let me know.

I’ve left The Blair Partnership agency as of today. The two people that were the reason I signed with them in the first place have left and I’ve now no reason to stay.

You’re never going to succeed by doing nothing. I’m glad the French Resistance didn’t just say “They might kill us!”, and then stay at home.

Let me get this straight. In America if you peacefully protest, they kill you, but if you rape someone, they make you write an essay?

On Nov 8th, I’ll be appearing at the Dublin Book Festival. If you’ve got kids and are near Dublin, bring them along. It’ll be fun. I’ll also be signing books after and you can meet Barry the Shark in person. You might even get to Boop his Snoot.

Does this guy own any other jackets? You'd think with all his money, he would. He's like that guy at college who's whole personality is the one distinctive item of clothing he wears all the time.

So even the AI powered AI checkers can’t be trusted. Either that or I’m an AI and I’m not aware of it. In which case I’ve not reached self-awareness yet and the world can rest easy.

That’s not great is it? Here’s the thing, and I’m not trying to defend him if he did use AI to write an article. But as an experiment, I gave an AI checker three paragraphs I’d written without any AI involvement and it said it had a 68% chance of being written by AI.

Sounds awful. Just like the chalkboard cartels in schools in the 20th century. In all seriousness though, this AI generated stuff is utter slop. It’ll have a very limited shelf life as the novelty will soon wear off. Like 3D movies or Ted Lasso. Or at least I hope so.

We had a plumber here yesterday. I couldn’t find my hairbrush in the bathroom this morning and for one second I thought he might have stolen it to try and clone me. To work as a slave in his plumbing mine. It was on the bedroom floor.

So far today I've heard Danny Tommo described as Captain Thugwash, Vasco da Gammon and Sir Walter Wally. Well played Internet.

Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.

This is going to be such a clusterfuck. I give it an hour, tops, before the first one slams into a Luas.

I still think this is the best gag I’ve ever done in a comic but it depends on knowing two niche references. Most people won’t get it. My favourite type of gag.

I see someone called 'Angry Anderson' died. A much punchier nickname than mine. 'Quietly Seething Talbot'.

Hi. We've got a children's book available in book shops (and places like Amazon). It's called The World According To Sharks. We worked really hard on it and people seem to like it.
If you've got kids or know a kid that might like it, it'd make a great Christmas present. Plus if we sell more we might actually get to make another book.

For Americans saying, “What do you expect us to do?”. This. This is what the world expects from you. Except A LOT MORE of you. Looking at the video it’s obvious to see that it’s mostly people from immigrant backgrounds protesting. Immigrants doing all the hard work again.

Great white sharks have two blind spots: one directly behind the head and the other in front of the snout.
