@Clair_M_Gamble I was wondering how you were getting along! You did it!!!! Mega impressed :)

@DrJessTaylor @BBCWomansHour Absolutely astonished at the response this got from the listeners of woman’s hour. All the more proof that you are doing such good work highlighting this upsetting practice. Genuinely haven’t been more outraged in a long time. It makes me want to write a comic on consent!

Just finished Return of the Obra Dinn and fell in love with its amazing storytelling and all round artistry. I have become an Obra Dinn evangelist and shall now spread the word via the medium of lino printed cards! Thanks @dukope for maybe the best game ever

@CarolineErolin I’ve heard that it’s just like riding a bike! Have a fab time :)

Having a lockdown-look through my old stuff and found this gem! If anyone wants to find me funding to develop it into an actual website that'd be nice ;) #glaucoma #comics #infocomics #shybairnsgetnowt

@BarrattSweets I just ate a black jack that wasn’t vegetarian. Please tell me that this is a blip! I only just discovered I could eat them a few months ago and I’m not ready for this love affair to be over. I am willing to buy up the entire leftover stock of vegetarian ones fyi

@metrokitty Anything to let me nerd out on classical mythology!

Just in case anyone needs another glaucoma comic (about Odysseus comforting a worried cyclops about impending eye surgery... naturally!) - here you go. I tried to directly translate an existing info leaflet into comicese #glaucoma #comics #trabeculectomy

@Tsaiberia @metrokitty I hope you’re doing ok!

@NoetheMatt @GraphicMedicine @jviscomm You are very lovely :)

[Mim does glaucomics @Medisodes]

@metrokitty @NoetheMatt Totally. I suppose though that this is one of the points of having the graphic medicine community - some reassurance every now and again :)

[Mim does glaucomics @Medisodes]

@metrokitty @NoetheMatt Phew. It’s so stressful writing something, pretending to be an expert. I can’t bear reading it again but I’m still super stoked that you quoted it! Sadly this was my last hurrah - I couldn’t cope with the perpetual feelings of inadequacy and quit the phd. Much happier!

Hello Twitter!! Recruiting for my study (hour-long interviews about comics and information with UK people with glaucoma) and hope you might be able to help me. Please share my advert for the project and get my eternal gratitude and probably good karma for life. #glaucoma

@metrokitty It’s no ‘diabetes is after your dick’ (still my fave of all comics, I tell everyone to read it!), but thanks!! :D
