Absolutely delighted to (finally) reveal I had the pleasure of creating images for this amazing film.
I made a right old mess & cannot wait for you to see it on screens soon…

THE THING WITH FEATHERS directed by Dylan Southern, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, adapted from Max Porter’s superb novel.
Ooo! Max Porter’s acclaimed novel has been adapted for film!
With Benedict Cumberbatch!
Directed by Dylan Southern!
Premiering at Sundance!

And is that carbon sheets on his drawing board?…

I've said this several times but this is the only reason Reform exist. They are a cabal of already-rich asset strippers, with the sole aim of extracting as much wealth from the UK as they possibly can before leaving the country for dead. They must not get even a sniff of genuine power.

There are only 5 of the 20 sketched in copies left in the Kickstarter! I’d imagine they’ll go this evening at this rate, so get in quick if you want one! www.kickstarter.com/projects/ave...

Still pondering that the last island the Danes sold to the US was Little St. James AKA Epstein Island.
Excellent episode along with the Minnesota coverage. Get listening.

This has been an excellent series but Cadwalladr’s breakdown of social media, tech security & the UK government’s blindspot to the pitfalls is suitably unnerving.
Highly recommend listening to this episode of @boldpolitics.bsky.social

As grim as it is unsurprising, but the key detail here is “mass AI layoff.” The CEO class will gladly accept a sharp decline in quality as a price to pay for the chance to stiff human beings out of work and pay.

There is going to be a general strike on January 23. Make sure you don't cross the picket line.
every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO

this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

Make a zine in 2026. Already working on mine.
"There’s a freedom people are craving because they’re feeling so constrained, surveilled and, frankly, threatened in so many other spheres."

Zines have made a resurgence as communities seek to share information on everything from ICE raids to local elections.

The Government is planning to send King Charles to the US to celebrate with Trump. Giving him a royal visit right now sends a terrible message that his behaviour is acceptable. We can stop this if enough of us speak up. Will you add your name to the petition? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ca...

The narrative about London crime is truly so BORING to Londoners.

Those of us who walk & travel around our city safely every day, every night.

The likeliest daily risk to Londoners is of being ripped off by our landlord or somewhere charging us £4.50 for a coffee. #r4today
