It turns out that leaving the bat wings on George for a while breaks his tiny cat brain.

I introduced Claire yesterday, but didn’t give much of an idea of what #waypointcomic actually is. Well, this should give you an idea (and a better look at @badbaddog.bsky.social’s absolutely stunning art).

Hey everyone, if you remember, I mentioned a Kickstarter a few weeks back. Well, it’s time to reveal what it’s for: my comic book, Waypoint. I’d like you to meet Claire. She’s been a big part of my life for a while and I hope you’ll make her part of yours. #waypointcomic

Daily unheard album: Manowar — Fighting the World. This may be one of the dumbest albums I’ve ever heard and Orson Welles does a spoken word narrative bit on it. Amazing. #dailyunheardalbum

Daily unheard album: The Jimmy Castor Bunch — It’s Just Begun. Some of the lyrics haven’t aged well (“Troglodyte Man” in particular) but that groove is timeless. #dailyunheardalbum

Daily unheard album: Atoll — Tertio. Not quite as good as the Italian stuff but the French still knew how to prog pretty damn well. #dailyunheardalbum

Daily unheard album: Nektar — Journey to the Centre of the Eye. More heavy psych than their subsequent prog works and frankly that gives this an edge that those lack. Not just a looker. #dailyunheardalbum

Daily unheard album: Titus Groan — Titus Groan. Named after the central character of the Gormenghast trilogy, not quite as insane as the books but still pretty wild. How many heavy rock acts had oboes? #dailyunheardalbum
