Well, I have finished honours. I have a short term contract logging core at Mt Isa in Queensland (Australia). Something to help me get out the hole of “poor very broke student” (it will be paying my trip to Helsinki) and give me time to decide on what I want to do for the next few years. This may cause some problems for the Vulgar Army/Cat’s Paw projects as I am not sure what the internet access is like on site (I think I am living on site). I’m assured there is some potential for internet access. I will post when I find out (assuming I have internet access of course).

There is a 698kg squid building a website at
squidsquid.com. Really. According to this website my squidname is
michelle the gelatinous mollusc. Except that I am a goldfish. I am confused. Probably why I am a goldfish. This will make more sense after you visit squidsquid.

(Of Doom)
Or Weird Tales From the Old Ones: A webcomic based on HP Lovecraft’s Old Ones and aliens. Every now and then I get the impression I
really should read a few HP Lovecraft stories. Happily, I can count this as research at the moment, but only if there are tentacles.
