The Future is Another Country

So much mud is being thrown that the slightest speck sticking to a labcoat seems enough to persuade Joe Public that the bigger scientific picture is irrelevant and that it must, therefore, all boil down to moustache twirling evil-doers Mwa-haar-haaring under ill-gotten showers of public gold. We do love a soundbite. So I guess it must be OK if the glaciers start to disappear in 50 years, not 20, and the African harvests collapse in 40 years, not 20, and if a quarter of Holland is lost to the sea, not a half. That'll be fine. Nothing to worry about. Party on dudes.
Lest we forget - it was the IPCC and the UEA themselves that brought their own errors to the attention of their peers.

Birds of a feather?

The bluefin tuna goes the way of all fish.
Flexible family arrangements can be found everywhere.
I'm trying out this new layout style for the strip - it'll fit better with the new (imminent) site. Hope you like it.

Sons of the sod

This cartoon was originally published in Ethical Consumer magazine.
YOUR OPINION PLEASE, ON THE FOLLOWING:-
I'm about to commit to a domain name for this new website that is, honestly, about to go live. I am given to understand that the title Throbgoblins (international or otherwise) is something of a turn-off for many as it sounds like some sort of pornographic smurf movie. So I would welcome any feedback on whether I should keep it or just go with my own name. I know that a rose by any other name would still smell of old man and wet fox, but I have to plump for something, and it might as well be something somebody somewhere quite likes.

Another Hell in Another Handcart

I have finally sorted out my technofear and got 450 cartoons - from the early LabRats through to the Slamdown comic - uploaded to the new website database. So we're on the home stretch. I'm now actually quite excited about the new site. I think you'll like it. Graeme Sherrif has done a fabulous job and I hope it will all be going live soon.
