Matthew Dooley has done it again with Aristotle's Cuttlefish - another perfect graphic novel - funny, poignant & optimistic, a real tonic for these broken times. Humour and humanness pervade, tender details beautifully captured, distinctly British but at the same time universal #aristotlescuttlefish

Very much in love with these hand-crafted bear bookends I picked up yesterday

Pull on your plaid shirt and ripped jeans, flick your greasy locks away from your sad, stoned eyes for just a second and go listen to the number one global grunge vinyl mix made in 2025 by me...

Lesson:
1. Buy art that makes you happy.
2. Check with your partner first.

Loving my new acquisition from George Mitchell.

Belt

Your phone purrs with another message and I tighten my belt. Later, I trace the buckle indents in my belly, searching for a route back to you.

When you finally tell me you've met someone else, the last notch is pierced and I move only in shallow breaths.

Save your bacon: knit ivory rinds into a stylish sweater, place fridge-fresh loins daily onto tired, puffy eyes, make those cracked lips luscious with lardon gloss, write your heart in streaky verse & go woo the butcher's daughter with all you've got.
