This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

Today’s #MinorIrritation - sorted the odd socks in the drawer.
I keep a bag to put strays into, and reunited two brave souls, but six have been banished (onto the wax tin for next time I need to wax something wooden).
I can be more dull, but only slightly.

American commentators and right wing politicians are expressing shock that countries they have repeatedly threatened with invasion, disrespected on the international stage, and economically bullied are forging new alliances.
Sorry guys, but it’s FAFO time.

IRONY ALERT
It will not surprise you to learn that Toby Youngs 'Free Speech Union' has obtained a High Court injunction banning the publication of a list of its donors open.substack.com/pub/democrac...
Who funds the Free Speech Union?
Toby Young’s outfit went to court to hide its donors. Today we reveal that funders include US anti-abortion groups, Brexit politicians and Tufton Street insiders.

Quick Aesthetic check: this is for a future game called Clues in Sprues. Am I better off having all the Sprues different colours or one colour for the marketing shots?

I'm packing orders, with District 9 playing in the background, and I'd forgotten just how good this film is. In terms of stroytelling, it is actually remarkable.

I’ve been getting a LOT of kick back for doing this, but I remain committed.

Today’s annoyance is clothing. I’m convinced I have too much.
Quickly made a hanging hook. Once I wear it, it goes to the left of this tag. I’ve made one for March, June and October too.
Let the culling commence!
