Almost every day, someone tells me this is their desert island book or their favourite book of the year or that they're on the their 2nd read of it but there is still a feeling that it is not enough. I feel done with promoting it now but I thought I'd give one more copy away before drawing the line

My latest novel Everything Will Swallow You, now out in paperback. You might like it if you like any of the following: Knitting. Crocheting. Old records (and other old dusty things). An unexpected queer love story. Folklore. The sea. Walking. A hyper-intelligent semi-aquatic cryptid. Abandoned buildings. Community. Silliness. Crows.

If SCREEN were to pass, you'd be required to scan your face and upload an ID to access this site because it allows "harmful" material. This affects you even if you don't care about sex work or porn.

Mike Lee's SCREEN Act, which heads to Senate Commerce Committee for markup on Wednesday, would expand age verification requirements to a nearly limitless scope of websites, and is supported by the architects of Project 2025.

The other Beach Boys are feeding the goats. Mike Love, however, is suspicious of the goats. Mikes got some treats in his pockets, which he *could* give the goats, but, because he’s greedy and likes Mike Love far more than he could ever like goats, he’s decided to keep the treats for himself.

The cover of my first pressing (stereo, UK) of Pet Sounds. I have since sold this record. Shocking, I know. It's a classic. It did a lot to change the face of popular music. But it's always been a record I admire rather than love. It's never got its hooks into me like 'Revolver' or 'Rubber Soul' does, and I get much more enjoyment out of later Beach Boys LPs such as 'Holland' and 'Carl And The Passions'. So, being brutal, and honest about my listening habits, I decided it had to go. Hopefully someone else who connects with it in a way I never did is really enjoying it.

Bluesky: "I appreciate the alt text on this." Facebook: "Why do you take photos of sheep? You're weird." Instagram: "Not interested. No music and they're not doing a dance."

I've decided to compile a definitive thread of photos of the best sheep I've photographed during my walks in the countryside, together with supporting biographical information. I will put the vital story associated with each sheep in the alt text, since some of it is a little long to fit in a post.

A nihilistic sheep, who, like so many other sheep, just wants to watch the world burn, staring at me insouciantly, moments after it has set fire to a large portion of the United Kingdom.

Touchingly, I've just had an order for one of these from the vet nurse who helped save Roscoe's life after what looked like being a fatal dog attack in December 2015.

If anyone else in the UK would like one of these books (happy to sign & personalise) for cover price £9.99 I just got some lovely Roscoe bookmarks from my mum, which you can have free. Drop me an email at hello@tom-cox.com with your address and I'll send payment info.

• replace "Middle East" with "America" • replace "Palestinians" with "Trump" • replace "Islamists" with "GOP" • replace "Jews" with "women, POC, immigrants, the poor, trans people, the elderly, and the disabled" until you fix your dumb fucking post, don't bother to talk to us, you dumb motherfucker
