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.

Perfect
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.

Figurative artists quote & share self-portraits.
Let‘s see what you look like. I’ll start with my grizzled old face.

At least with the Kennedy Center, artists did leave.

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.

what I want trans kids, queer kids, and gender nonconforming kids to know:

you are loved

you are so much more powerful than the ghouls using your healthcare as a political pawn, and you WILL outlive them (they know this, and it is why they're attacking you)

Art vs Artist 2025
I haven’t been very productive this year as regards drawing & haven’t done any painting at all
However I have been on a printmaking course (more to follow), built a printing press, baked loads of bread & written stories

By late 2026 I will publish my new "Acid Renaissance" book of art, but in the meantime my first two art books are available from my online shop via the link below (and also from Bookbuster and Printed Matters bookshops, if you happen to be in Hastings):

Back to peddling my weird suggestions, in case this festive timeless void hasn't been strange enough for you. A gift of sorts - a folklore/folk horror starter pack. Go find yourself some winter ghost stories, standing stones, possibly even a wassail.
Anyone craving more folklore and folk horror in their bluesky lives might like the starter pack I made. I'm always adding to it, especially trying to include artists, musicians, performers, morris dancers, mummers, etc. Let me know if I'm missing anyone :) go.bsky.app/LXSZqSM
