Can’t help but feel Marvel’s 1983 take on Kipling’s How Fear Came -from The Second Jungle Book- was a huge missed opportunity. For Gil Kane & P. Craig Russell et al’s storytelling was really rather wonderful. Surely a more lengthy project -rather than 30 odd pages- would’ve done well in bookshops?

Graham Linehan once took issue with a sketch I did and tweeted about me referring to me not by name but only as to who my boyfriend was and called me an NPC ( non player character.) It was misogynistic and his “standing up for women” schtick is baloney.

I was just reminded that during Corbyn’s leadership of the Labour Party JK Rowling organised a meeting with a group of Blairites and Rachel Riley (for some fucking reason). Their aim was to form a breakaway party and damage Labour.

I think he might be a comedy genius. He ran out into the garden with one of my shoes once as I was trying to put them on. I got up to go in get it and he ran in and grabbed my other shoe and it took that into the garden too. I laughed out loud at his dickishness.

Look at this response from Polanski to Sophie Ridge's attempted gotcha on flags To *finally* have a mainstream political voice standing up for racialised & minoritised communities being intimidated by the violent fash on our streets It's really not that hard, is it?

Sophy Ridge @SophyRidgeSky My conversation with new Green Leader Zack Polanski about the St George's Cross: Zack Polanski: What does it mean to me? Wel, I think it depends on the context. So during an England football game, 1'Il paint my face in a Saint George's Cross quite happily. At another time though, where we don't nave a football tournament, I think it's quite imported from America this idea that we wave flags outside our house. If people want to do that then think that's up to them. But I think at times of heightened tensions, I would say patriotism is actually about loving your neighbour, whether they're from this country or not. Patriotism is about building cohesive communities. I'm really proud today to be an elected Jewish leader of the Green Party. My deputy leader is a Muslim man. I think that's patriotism. When we recognize that antisemitism and Islamophobia are two sides of the same coin, and actually communities are so much better when we're more creative and work together in solidarity. SR: It's interesting to listen tO what you're saying there -s so do you think that flying a St George's Cross outside your house at a time, as you put it, of heightened tension could be intimidating for some communities? Zack Polanski: I think people can experience as intimidation. And I think if those communities are intimidated, again the patriotic thing to do would be to have those conversations with your neighbours, have those conversations with the communities.
