Doodles for Hong Kong 🇭🇰
In response to the tragic Tai Po fire, I'm doing charity commissions. Anyone who puts over £25/250HKD into "Feeding Hong Kong" or Hong Kong SPCA can request a coloured doodle of any prehistoric animal 🙏

As a US journalist, it is notable that the most accurate headline in this collection is by the non-US Guardian. Which is owned by a trust, not a billionaire.

News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

If you ever tried to get this vaccine and were told you weren’t in the age range, it’s now approved to age 45.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
