Ok so I just heard Kermit's voice from the new Muppets and I am not ok.

Jeez. I mean wow. Those Epstein files were just FULL of drag queens, huh?

Researching old magic stuff and have been made aware of a magician who did a rock & roll themed act under the stage name ELVIS PRESTO I mean.

TOMORROW! I'll be doing my thing, and singing book afterwards, so BANBURY get yourself down to mill arts!

Or, and hear me out here, fund education and teachers properly you idiotic monster

Well. Holy cats. Just been told that the entire first print run of my book has sold out. They're printing more next week. Holy. And I can't stress this enough. Cats. www.amazon.co.uk/Magic-You-Mat-Ricardo/dp/0571383963

Wait. F1 got nominated for best picture? omghahahaha

Noped out of "One Battle After Another" after about 20 minutes. Hated the constant sexualisation of a black woman by white men. Felt shallow, jarring and unpleasant. Misogynist and racist fetishization kinda takes me out of the film, I'm afraid.

All the sports! Boxing, baseball, football, basketball and beauty. ALL THE SPORTS.

I just accidentally found out that my book is on the shelf in a public library next to a school in a small town in Alberta, Canada, and i got quite emotional haha

I know I'm super late on this, but I just saw Sinners and it is an absolute stone cold ever loving MASTERPIECE.

Last night I was very grateful to have the comfort of a found family in a basement venue to give respite from the horrors in the wider world. This is one of the things cabaret, and all art, is for. Have a drink, laugh and gasp at things, be together, feel and remember what love can do.

I have been reading this - it's like a 1930's TEMU. It sells shite versions of EVRTHING IN THE WORLD. Also: Extremely racist. Extremely. Oof.

Was feeling a little bit fragile last night, so popped into one of my safe spaces for a perfect cappuccino before my gig. Been coming here since the 80's. It never disappoints. Soothes the choppy whitecaps in my head. I'll always be grateful for its existence.

Occasionally someone, on finding out what I do, will ask if I've been on Britain's got talent. My go-to joke in this situation is to deadpan "actually I'm the first person to win it twice", and people always buy it because nobody ever knows who won it

SPOONS! A fantastic video from Matt, entertaining and informative.

Mental health hasn't been 100% this week, but I like my outfit today, and I'm going to go take photos to settle my brain.

Today I learned that ukip and reform are different and that ukip is somehow..still going? Lol Good for them. Split the angry ignorance vote.

One of my absolute favourites shows of recent years

I'm playing The Witcher III at the moment. Bumped into a street performer who does my bowling ball trick. Didn't have much of a crowd, but he let me take a selfie with him.

“Show me what comic you loved when you were 13, and that’s all I need to know about you.” - Brad Meltzer

Secretly signed another one on the way to my gig tonight. @waterstones.bsky.social Trafalgar square - sorry for my sneakyness!

Huh, didn't know people who run companies that make csam were allowed to see their kids.

Really enjoying @edzitron.com's angry and hilarious podcast coverage of CES. If this stays an annual thing, we can only be a couple of years away from him burning the whole place down.

That no trousers tube ride thing is really great for the countless numbers of people who have been victims of sexual aggression on the underground, isn't it. Really lovely way to retrigger some trauma.
