Daylight Saving Explained:
So we’ve got a big 6-panel comic here! Let’s dig in. The comic is titled ‘How to Tell if You Lost or Gained an Hour’ In the first drawing, we have the words “This is the Hour Hand” and below it is an anthropomorphic hour hand waving and saying ‘sup losers’ Next panel says “If the clocks go forward, it eats up that hour” and now our Hour character is chasing after an hour-sized wedge of a clock, screaming ‘Come Here!” while the hour goes, “AHH!” Next panel goes “But if clocks go back, it also eats that hour…” and now the hour hand is eating another house screaming ‘AAH HA HA’ while that hour runs away saying ‘Not again!’ Next panel points out that ‘In short, the hour hand is a real dick’ and theres a drawing of the hour hand smoking a cig, giving the finger and saying ‘Fuck You’ - Panel five continues the narration with “...and nobody knows what happened to the hour” and below this, there’s a policeman with a sniffer dog looking for a shallow grave in the woods. Our last panel begins “...But someone will try and explain it to you…” Below this we have one of those annoying people saying “So in Spring, the clocks spring…” but their words mean nothing because they’re talking to a grieving anthropomorphic clock, who’s missing that hour, shown by a missing wedge in their face and they’re saying “That will not bring my baby back!” Anyway, I’m really sorry if you were actually hoping to find out if we gained or lost an hour here.

Today’s Comic: The Inevitability of Enshittification…
So we’ve got a little stick-figure cartoon here and there’s two people sitting at a table enjoying a beer, while two other people approach them, one of them looking pretty threatening and cracking his knuckles. The guy he’s with starts talking to the people at the table “Real nice place you like hanging out in here…” he begins, “would be a real shame if it were to become an unusable, horrible place full of spam and slop…” This threat is immediately confusing to the people at the table, one of whom replies “Wait what? Isn’t this YOUR place?”

Mondrian would have loved a bento box.
A little cartoon drawing of Piet Mondrian about to enjoy a Bento box. He’s also saying ‘ooooh!’ because obviously he’s a fan.

Best thing about being an uncle to young kids is you get to say stuff like “who wants Uncle Chaz’s famous scrambled eggs” and it’s just the most average normal scrambled eggs but they’re fully convinced you’re busting out Michelin level eggs just for them.

Demi Adejuyigbe driving a robot around a comedy club stage does more worldbuilding and social commentary than half the robot media I've experienced in the last 5 years.

In other devastating news: G and I missed the local pub quiz last night only to discover that the picture round is MY FAVOURITE GAME. (Which I got to have a crack at retrospectively)

PS: it was Mongolia.
Photo is of the picture round, showing a list of country outlined. I got 19 out of 20, got stumped on one of them, and I know know Mongolia looks like an upside down Switzerland.

One of really weird things about leaving a city is giving a friend advice on places to go 6 months later and discovering all your go-to places have since permanently closed, and you realise you didn’t just leave a city, but also a point in time. So even if you return, you’ll never really return.

Ok folks. I need your help.
I’m on the hunt for new jobs. If that’s you, get in touch! If that’s not you, please do re-post and/or share this and spread the word! Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!
The image here is a comic I drew putting myself out there on the hunt for some work! On the left is a slightly disheveled version of me holding a big yellow sign saying “Hey Friends” and then on the right I’ve written the following: “Hey All, I’m currently on the hunt for new work (projects, commissions, adverts, etc) Head on over to Chazhutton.com to see a portfolio and get in touch if you’d like to work together” Then in slightly smaller font I’ve written “oh and I would love if you could share this! Thanks Again!”

Jackson Pollock makes a mistake….
So what we’ve got here is a little cartoon of Jackson Pollock doing one of his drip paintings with the canvas laid out on the floor and surrounded by tins of paint and paintbrushes and art stuff. JP, with cigarette in mouth, is poised over the canvas ready to start, but has dropped his paint tin which is now pouring blue paint onto his canvas in a perfectly square shape.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Today’s Comic.
We’ve got a little stick figure comic here. In the first panel is ostensibly a scene from Hamlet, where Hamlet hold up a skull, proclaiming “Alas! Poor Yorick, I knew him…” - while this is going on a man, possibly Horatio if I’m honest, is talking into an earpiece saying “you guys gettin’ this?” Cut to: Panel 2! Now we’re inside a surveillance van with a detective at a computer showing the scene from before and responding with “Confirmed, Suspect knew the victim” meanwhile another detective stands watching while saying “wait, he’s got the guy’s skull?!” Anyway, I don’t know what happens in the rest of Hamlet but presumably they take him in for questioning.

Not many words in this cartoon - it's a mostly silent story of two crusading knights on horseback who travel through a series of wild fantasy landscapes, basically like a Lord of the Rings type quest, and then they eventually get to a modern british town, and they walk up a bleak British overpass, and then one of them climbs up a lamp post and sellotapes a sad little St George's flag to it, and the other one takes a photo on his phone, and then he climbs back down, and all the panels so far are reversed - back through all the different landscapes, their quest over. On the last panel knight 1 finally speaks asking "how many likes?" and the other one says "22".

Every ‘We’re not racist’ person who gets interviewed…
The comic shows someone being interviewed at a protest while wearing a flag as a cape and holding a sign saying ‘Get Out’, their speech bubble reads: Nah mate, we’re not racist, we’re just “prejudiced against or antagonistic towards people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized” The quoted part of what they’re saying is written in italics.

Discovered a new way to fry an egg: first, seperate the white and yolk, drop the white into a hot pan with olive oil, then drop the yolk on top of that 45 seconds later.

You’ll end up with the most disappointing fried egg you’ve ever eaten. Terrible method. Wouldn’t recommend.

I don’t know where this is going but so far, if you love a bit of Douglas Adams / Spike Milligan, I suspect you’ll enjoy whatever this wonderful thread is.

The knight stood, triumphant, over the prostrate dragon. He raised his sword high above his head and-

"I wouldn't if i were you"

The voice was in his head. Confused, he glanced around. A black cat was cleaning a paw, casually nearby.

He raised the sword again.

"Are you REALLY, really sure?" /1

Search that works for you. Zero ads. Zero tracking. Just the results you're looking for.
Comic comparing current search engines vs. ideal search: Top panel shows person seeking "the thing" being bombarded with ads and irrelevant results from multiple figures holding signs. Bottom panel shows clean interaction where person asks for "the thing" and receives exactly what they wanted.

This week's comic, inspired by a study showing that AI summaries on top of search results are dramatically cutting traffic to websites.

Computer screen: Cheese Art GOOGLE ACTUALLY WORKED AND SENT YOU TO SITES BUILT WITH CARE BY REAL PEOPLE. Computer screen: Lovable Expert THEN CAME SOCIAL MEDIA, AND ITS ALGORITHMS DETERMINED WHAT YOU CLICKED. Computer screen: Facebook THEN AGGREGATOR SITES TOOK OFF. Computer screen: CRAP FROM AROUND THE WEB THEN SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANIES TRIED TO KEEP US FROM EVER LEAVING… AND WE DIDN'T. Woman on phone: SCROLL SCROLL SCROLL THEN AI BEGAN GENERATING SUMMARIES SO YOU DIDN'T NEED TO CLICK THROUGH TO A SITE ANYMORE. Computer screen: MONOPOSEARCH Summary SOON...
