STREET OF CROCODILES (1986): Startling, terrifying stop-motion animation by the Brothers Quay, loosely based upon the short story by Polish writer Bruno Schultz. Channel 4 aired it in one of their animation strands and it blew my mind.

A lot of scary shit going on at the moment but it's worth remembering just how fucking cold and inaccesible most of Greenland is, especially in January.

Just reread Thor Heyerdahl’s account of hi 1947 Kon-Tiki expedition. Last time I read it was 45 years ago when I was 15. Why hadn’t I picked up that he was a white supremacist then? His whole theory was that Peruvians sailed to Polynesia but they must have been white to manage it. Absolute woo.

Morning everyone, and what a beautiful morning it is. Crispy frosty outside, bright sunshine, and Bjork is sitting on my lap and is unlikely to move for the foreseeable.

China Miéville wrote a beautiful, powerful fiction centred on Surrealists VS nazis. I expect you will love it. Also, oh so very timely. hazlitt.net/feature/we-c...
'We Can Only Do Our Poetry Because We Are Also Fighting Back': An Interview with China Miéville | Hazlitt
Talking to the author of The Last Days of New Paris about applying a video game sensibility to fiction, redeeming and finding inspiration in the politics of the Surrealists, and when to add demons.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

For the first new artist of 2026 we bring you the work of New York master of queerotica Fyodor Pavlov. Drawing skilfully on the traditions of earlier erotic illustration, his experimental, playful, transgressive art is a joy to behold – see it now at honesterotica.com/illustrator/....

I didn’t know that Crafts Magazine had ceased paper publication and gone online. Given that the last time I bought a copy over twenty years ago it cost twelvety two quid I’m not really surprised though.

I'm going to start 2026 out looking back at my fave art pieces I got done in 2025. I always feel like I didn't get much done, and that is always untrue.
First, a carved wood artist book reflecting on an impending loss of eyesight and how eyes work.
