YESSSS

This should be the default for every police force. To stop violent racist kidnap gangs.

I think everybody at NPR is glad our Susan Stamberg left us an advance obit for Frank Gehry. A legend on a legend.

These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

You can't separate this from the Atlantic article claiming their are too many students with disabilities. It's a moral panic meant to push out young people with disabilities from access to resources and to reify ableist bigotry. It's exactly what they did to trans people.

Morning! I've been hearing the same 7 notes in my head for my entire life - and only just discovered where they come from. So I made a little video about it. Enjoy! Share! Etc! #autistic #autism #actuallyautistic #neurodiverse #neurodivergent www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIus...

SEVEN NOTES. A short film about the autistic trait of echolalia. Hope you like. If you do, a share would be awesome. #autistic #autism #actuallyautistic #neurodiverse #neurodivergent www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIus...

Such a great audience at Cabaret Carnival last night. Cold outside but hot in here! Here I am pretending to be grumpy while actually being the luckiest boy!

Going to Dublin with a burlesque show next weekend. I should probably make a little video about the trip, right?

Yep

I love how Your Party looked at how Labour always self-sabotage in a pathetic manner, and thought "hold our latte"

Started my day at 6am, and finished it at 5am. Existing on a diet of carrot sticks, hummus and Huel. All for a 15 minute spot. Worth it. Thanks, Blackpool Winter Gardens.

Tonight I'm performing at the Blackpool Wintergardens, and the backstage does not dissapoint!

Ten pounds on Linehan being prime ministfuhrer Farage's minister for equality

Saw a duck standing on a branch in a tree. Unsettling.

Thiiiiiis

Hard drive fail. Two and a half months of YouTube video creation gone. Was going to upload one of them today. Sorry everyone. I'm going to go ahead and plough this heartbroken-ness into re-making the two lost videos, but better.

Cannot BELIEVE the trains in this country wanted to stop Tunbridge Wells from seeing this today. HOW VERY DARE, etc. Hat tip @howardread.bsky.social for driving, @alexanderybennett.bsky.social for photographing, and @matricardo.bsky.social for derring do.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait. My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

TUNBRIDGE WELLS! Tomorrow I shall be visiting your TRINITY THEATRE and bringing tricks to do, jokes to tell, and books to sign! So COME to @comedyclub4kids.bsky.social where shenanigans are GUARANTEED!

Finding it hard to be shocked at the reports of Farage being a teenage racist, as he is an adult one.

Had a lovely time on Sarah's podcast, talking mental health, autism, and how they influence and affect what I do as an artist and performer. Hope you like it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgCr...

Last time I was in Hunstanton I was on holiday with my parents, and was 6. It was the same person, but different, who paid a return visit there last night. #onstage #photography #capture #cabaret #theatre #trick

A standing O in a private members club ON A WEDNESDAY? I'll take it!

I know I'm super late to this party, but the Jeremy Renner app podcast is very funny

Danger Man is better than The Prisoner. Come at me.

Someone last night told me that a young kid that they'd bought my book for had been carefully reading it, out loud, every night..slowly working their way through it.. and I just can't tell you how much absolute warm joy things brings me. I was that kid! www.amazon.co.uk/Magic-You-Ma...
