I'm very proud today to announce that I have become a father.

This is my son and I love him.

He will call me papa and I will call him Gourdon.

When he grows up he's going to be a big sloppy mess, just like his mother who only lets me see him every other weekend and constantly bad mouths me in front of him.

When he grows up, he’s going to be a big sloppy mess, just like his mother.

She lives somewhere in Moseley now, I think. Took the Nutribullet, took my dignity, and only lets me see him every other weekend if I bring a fresh bag of pumpkin seeds.
She says she’s “finding herself.” I hope she gets lost.

You can find me and Gourdon in Digbeth, when she allows it.

Hello. My name is Little Doctor Oculus.
I'm just like regular sized Doctor Oculus but I live peacefully within the carpet fibres at the opticians.
These are my glasses. I sell them to people in Birmingham to fund my hobbies of seeing, bending plastic, and contemplating the futility of form.

The last pair are made from not actual spiderwebs by the talented
They contain two not really spiders that scuttled through the door one day and whispered “samosas" until I let them live on the specs.

Come to Digbeth. Bring your own prescription.
Book an eye test if you must.
Link’s in bio, probably.

Four insta posts to look out for later this week:
• Lots of unique new specs in stock for £140, including lots of Doc Oc UK exclusives.
• New dates for eye exams released.
• Patricia and Blue Cat are going for a photoshoot for the Animals of Zellig calendar.
• and on Saturday 1st of November, I’m going to get a giant pint from the German market.

Someone came in yesterday with a pair of Garrett Leight glasses that had snapped clean in half at the bridge.
Normally, that’s the sort of break people give up on, but with a bit of patience, the right tools, and a steady hand, they’ve been brought back to life almost as good as new. It really makes you think about what our belongings can really endure and survive after that kind of impact, like in 1998, when the Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell in a Cell and he plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer’s table.

July flew by. Here’s the bits I remember.
