Little Deer survives on barely 10 sales a day! We only have a few days in the year where we break 20 sales. That’s how small we are, and why every sale counts!

In the same way my shop never feels complete without a Laura Park comic, or the film section incomplete until I can stock Kikujiro someday.

I know it’s funny to stock the soundtrack to a television special most Irish folk haven’t seen, adapted from a children’s author who was never that big in Ireland, but this is an album that makes my shop feel complete.

Part of my DNA

A black and white illustration with text reading "Substack is creating a walled garden you have to share with white supremacists". The illustration shows a round brick wall holding part of quote, some flowers, and a draped nazi flag. this is surrounded by barbed wire

I have watched more & more friends turn to Substack in the past few months. PLEASE DON'T DO THIS! #Substack has well-documented problems with platforming literal Nazis, as well as writers spreading Covid misinformation, anti-vaccine propaganda, & transphobia. Long post here:

I'm begging the small local community groups in Ireland to please consider reframing their use of AI design work this way. The amount of drama and theatre groups in my sphere that I see using AI posters now just makes me sad.

One of the crimes of AI has been the destruction of the beautiful "my nephew made this logo for me on his computer!" energy from all the hyper-local plumbers and taco shops. AI slop on white work vans is a crime against humanity.

There seems to be this notion in publishing that making a comic is the same as making an illustrated kids’ book, and it will send me to an early grave.

If you’re part of any creative groups, unions or other organisations in the uk you should be passing news like this along and spreading the world. News like this gets has the chance to be overlooked but if enough organisations kick up a fuss things can change.
