2,000 years ago the Easter Bunny died for our sins and now we eat chocolate eggs.

Political discourse in 2025: Everyone with a conscience: Murdering children is wrong. The racist establishment: RACISTS!

All set up at Hebden Bridge Town Hall for the Mill Town Arts spring fair. Doors open at 10. Come along and say hi.

Imagine all the people Seizing the means of production

Amidst all the doom and gloom in the world - and the world is a doomy and gloomy place right now - I'll be selling my wares at the Mill Town Arts Spring Art Fair at Hebden Bridge Town Hall two weeks from now on the weekend of 5th and 6th April. Come along and say hi.

Hey gang! I'm playing a solo gig at The Eagle Inn in Salford on 3rd April! If you can, please follow my band @narwhalsband.bsky.social too for further updates.

15 years of Tory and now Labour governments attacking the poorest and most vulnerable in our society, slashing welfare spending and public services to pay for tax cuts for the super rich, relying on the economic illiteracy of the population to get away with it. Enough is enough.

“Hello, @Keir_Starmer, you won't remember me, but this is you & I campaigning some time back. I was the guy in the wheelchair who asked whether you'd protect we #disabled after 14 years of Tory persecution. You told me yes. You've betrayed me.” - Tim Boxall, former Labour supporter

"Don't worry about the things you can't control." That'd be nice if the things I can't control weren't so fucking terrifying. Like the mass murder of indigenous peoples. Or the world slipping into a fascist hellscape. So I'm going to keep worrying about the things I can't control, thanks.

A Palestinian girl, Tuqa Ghazzawi, from Jerusalem has been sentenced by Israeli authorities to a month of house arrest in a location away from her home as punishment for drawing the Palestinian flag.

Film idea: A Scrooge-like billionaire who made his fortune destroying the planet, embarks on a new endeavour; destroying his boyhood football club.

Pollypaca!

I'm going to assume that Nintendo have copyright over the name Donkey Kong. So instead I'm calling this guy King Donk!

I don't know this lovely couple but a mutual friend commissioned me to paint this for them to celebrate their wedding. I hope they like it.

Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people, not unhinged Zionists and American billionaires.

The Handmaid's Tale was a warning, not a fucking manual.

When the immigrants are gone and the LGBTQ are criminalised, but you're still no better off, they will scapegoat the unions. When the unions are banned, they will turn on the left and liberals and the "enemies within". Nazism didn't start with gas chambers, it started with scapegoating.
