The first piece of advice on the NHS page on dealing with stress used to be: “Work out what it is that's making you feel stressed. See if you can change your circumstances to ease the pressure you're under.” Now it's "try talking about your feelings" and goes on to mention time-management. Hm.
So... #SmallPressDay is sponsored by @brokenfrontier.bsky.social this year. Or to put it more bluntly the entire running costs (hosting, app subs, payment to an artist for this year's poster, etc.) come from my pocket. On top of BF's running losses. So if you enjoy SPD please chip in if you can!
Small Press Day@smallpressday.bsky.social · 4mo ago#SmallPressDay is run by a tiny team of volunteers happy to give up their time for free for the community. But there are still costs we have to take on (hosting, artist for this year's poster, apps, etc.). Want to help? Donations to the Broken Frontier Ko-fi welcome! ko-fi.com/andyoliver70...
As we're just after payday a reminder that it would really help us to ensure @brokenfrontier.bsky.social's future if you set up a monthly £1 donation to our Ko-fi. Especially now that I've taken on all the running costs for @smallpressday.bsky.social too. Thank you! ko-fi.com/andyoliver70...

Here’s just a little bit more skull girl, from a bit I starter but didn’t finish on #hourlycomicsday
Bonus #DarwinDay content: Six of the best grumpy Darwin quotes.
Humanists UK@humanists.uk · 6mo agoWhile #DarwinDay is certainly a day to celebrate #CharlesDarwin and how he fundamentally changed humanity's understanding of all life on Earth... It’s also the perfect excuse to share this letter he wrote while being magnificently grumpy about bees 🧵
A packed-out evening in the pub at last night’s @goshcomics.bsky.social and Broken Frontier Drink and Draw. #GoshBFDD Thanks to everyone who came!
I brought collage to the party at in person #goshbfdd drink and draw tonight. Themes 1 ‘Oh, you shouldn’t have’ 2 ‘fluffy monsters’ 3 ‘mad scientists in love’. The best time as always thank you @brokenfrontier.bsky.social @goshcomics.bsky.social
Time to return to our spiritual home
Andy Oliver@andywpoliver.bsky.social · 6mo agoThe next @goshcomics.bsky.social & @brokenfrontier.bsky.social IN-PERSON Drink & Draw #GoshBFDD is this Friday and has two of my absolute fave comics creators as guests: @rein-lee.bsky.social & Matthew Dooley. I'll be co-hosting as usual with Will. Details here www.brokenfrontier.com/the-gosh-com...
Tomorrow I have to talk to two whole plumbers. But maybe I will also have time to dig up some roots and do some drawing.
Doing hourly comics day definitely switched back on some dopamine brain switch for me that I don’t know how I feel about.
I have been enjoying Skull Girl so much today. Jenny please do this *every* day, thank you
Jenny Robins@jennyrobins.bsky.social · 6mo agoToday I will be doing some #hourlycomicsday2026 posts as skull girl, to make myself get on with developing her universe, which is what I have been doing. #hourlycomicsday

Seems I have a brain that will automatically convert information into poetry.
