@richardlittler.bsky.social Richard, I seem to recall you putting something on Twitter, maybe 10 or so years ago about a hall in Timperley, possibly on Larkhill. It included an Edwardian upper middle class family outside the house.

I’m also available for freelance design work and art licensing.

As an (now retired) teacher at a school not very far where this was filmed, it was scarily authentic. I had and have seen, these incidents almost on a daily basis. Just glad I don’t have to experience them any more.

Stop Project 2025 Comic Trump's Project 2025 is a detailed plan to shut you up, and shut you out. Don’t let it do either. Read on, then vote.

Hi. We’re a group of comic book writers & artists who are furious about Project 2025, The Heritage Foundation’s plan to consolidate power under authoritarian rule. So we made a bunch of comics to explain their agenda and move you to vote against it. stopproject2025comic.org
