I've been let go by Stuff today as one of their weekly cartoonists. I'm incredibly gutted. I've been with the paper for over 8 years. To every person who read, shared, laughed or felt seen by my work. Thank you. You're my people! I won't give up. Just need some time to recalibrate.

“Think about what never happens. A candidate photographed at a Federated Farmers breakfast isn’t asked to account for the nitrate in the Manawatū. A candidate at a corporate box isn’t asked if he endorses the firm's tax structure“ @mohanjdutt.bsky.social culture-centered.blogspot.com/2026/10/the-...

There are just six days left to enrol, but we are about 130k behind where final enrolment got to last time - when people could still enrol all the way through election day. It is becoming very hard to see this gap really closing in such a short time.

"Boothby and Guerra deliver a cinematic supernatural horror graphic novel... Realistic, sharply detailed artwork captures both the isolated setting and the teens' mounting panic. A steady barrage of jump scares, visceral action, and escalating tension propels the chilling story." Publishers Weekly

Here's a bonus cartoon as we promote our Sparks! Live! fundraiser gofundme.com/sparks-live-... Mannequin on the Moon's Ian Boothby and Pia Guerra bringing Ian's Sparks! series of books off the page and to the stage this December.

Seymour paves the way for NACTO i.e. Opportunity to join the fray. Interestingly, a recent RNZ poll showed TOP and ACT voters share similar views on many economic issues and how to approach Te Tiriti o Waitangi #NZPOL

From the archives! It's all there. Black and white. This coalition of chaos has unleashed a raft of awfulness. Get your youth to vote. 8 days left #NzPol #PoliticalCartoon

Another top notch video from the Otago’s student-led election interview series, made by students, for students linktr.ee/vote2026otago Yes No - quick fire rounds! #NzPol #Students

8 days left to sign up. Please show this to any of your young whānau who are feeling like politics isn't for them. But also tell them you'll ride shotgun alongside 'em.

Stand down team. The graph bot charts have been created using Ai 😔 bsky.app/profile/raph...

It would have been cool news if true, but the AfD graph was an AI generated image that people who copied and shared it are now apologising for doing so bsky.app/profile/raph...

Getting closer to the original source. Mr. Schlingheider apologizes for sharing the image which he found in a post by a different Threads user. Kudos for being so transparent. Translation in alt text. www.threads.com/share/D3QU1z...

The London Economic isn't on Bluesky but this needed to be shared: www.instagram.com/p/DeZMVkAj6D... "Bot farm in Russia hit" #Economics

I'm so chuffed about this amazing haul from the local library. I have amazing resources now for any cartoon I create. To those of you patiently waiting for a cartoon. I'm getting my studies completed. I haven't forgotten about this work. Just trying to find my way back ❤️ #ArtBooks

New rules same prices... National's panicky promise to break up ( review ) part of the supermarket duopoly seems unlikely to deliver results for consumers ... #NZpol #cartoon #NZFarmersWeekly

Ableist fuckers. Thank you Andrew for seeking these OIA's out and sharing your findings. It's heartbreaking to know (even more than I do) that they do not give a shit about the younguns!
