Here’s the latest stop motion animation from my Tiny Angry Witch team. (I’m the writer, I can’t take credit for the animating!) It’s one of our longest, and it nearly drove us all mad, but we’re really proud of getting it made! 1 x Tiny Angry Witch 1 x broom No AI

An excellent work from @hookland.bsky.social writer David Southwell. As a child of the late 1960s and early 70s strangeness, all this resonates, especially as I grew up in a council house definitely built on ghost soil, which C Josiffe would have loved. Hookland is the home of our imagination.

ALT=(EN/🌐) ‎週末は‎娘達と福岡まで… ‎ ‎先週の木曜日に熊本の方とお話を ‎聞いていた長女が… ‎ ‎『お父さん、やるよ！』 ‎ ‎この一言で…娘達の友人や ‎ワシの元部下のお力添えで ‎色々な手配をしてもらいました ‎ ‎熊本の皆さんにとって ‎昨日まで当たり前やったことが ‎出来なくなる… ‎それを思うと ‎日を追うごとに ‎こっちの気持ちも辛くなってきて ‎ ‎さらには…台風の接近も… ‎‎ ‎なんとか予定通りに ‎福岡で不足物資の ‎引き渡しが出来ました。 ‎御尽力を頂いた方々に感謝です🙏🏻 ‎ ‎忘れんでください… ‎熊本の皆さんと ‎私達は共にあります🫶🏻✨

‎Saturday, Sunday… flew to Fukuoka with my daughters. ‎Talked to someone from Kumamoto last Thursday. My eldest daughter overheard and just said: ‎"Dad. Let's do this." ‎That was it. That's what got things moving. ‎Her friends and some of my old coworkers pulled strings, made calls, made it happen. ‎Things people in Kumamoto took for granted until yesterday — just gone now. That thought got heavier every single day. ‎Then a typhoon showed up too. ‎Why does nature have to pile on? ‎Somehow, still on schedule — we got the supplies to Fukuoka. ‎Thank you to everyone who helped. ‎Don't forget them. ‎We're with Kumamoto. ‎

It's astonishing that people in positions of influence, whose job is inderstanding policy, can look at the death toll from the UK and the death toll in New Zealand during the height of Covid-19 and conclude we should have been more relaxed in the UK.

Merry Lammas! I thought this weekend would be the perfect time to share another look at my finished Sun mask. The sun and it’s influence on a plentiful harvest have made it a deity of people for over 7000 years. Many customs and festivals that still exist today have their origins in sun worship. 🌞
