Maybe we were too hard on JJ Abrams for "Somehow Palpatine returned."

The news is pitching this election as ‘historic, whoever wins’ because if Kamala wins she’ll be the first female president, and if Donald wins he’ll be the first convicted felon president. I mean. One sounds a bit better than the other, if I’m completely honest.

The new Bunny Vs Monkey hardback comes out on the same day as the Boris Johnson book. I can GUARANTEE my book is funnier, sillier, and less corrosive to national decency 🫡

Hey guys! My girlfriend is selling a ticket to the Spirited Away stage show on the 17th of August. She booked it ages ago, but it landed on our baby's due date so we can't go.
It's a really great seat and we don't want it to go to waste.

Also, thanks to all the Phoenix readers and their parents for stopping by and for the countless kind comments about my work and the Phoenix as a whole. I can't really express just how much it means to hear such enthusiasm about the work we do, it's unbelievably energising!

Just finished watching YuYu Hakusho for the first time a few minutes ago (the anime of course)!
It was 112 episodes, but I could have happily watched 112 more. I might have to rewatch all of Hunter X Hunter again to fill the void!
