One last post in the lead up to #Christmas I've written a new book, #DoctorWho Christmas Specials with my son Ben, featuring director interviews and tons of great essays. Covers every special from The Christmas Invasion to Joy to the World. Still time to order! www.freewebstore.org/candy-jar-st...

And I’m one of the contributors!

I may have drank one or two glasses of Prosecco last night. Or three. Maybe five. Perhaps more. Perhaps a lot more. In other news, I think I’ve forgotten how to get out of bed.

Watched 'The Thursday Murder Club' or tried to. I got about 20mins in and gave up. How Christopher Columbus directed this is beyond me. I saw this quote somewhere online "Thursday Murder Club makes Death In Paradise look like John Le Carré" And they are absolutely right. Shite.

I may have accidentally helped create the perfect Christmas gift for the Doctor Who nut in your life, the one who probably ranks jelly babies by flavour. Pre-order it here: https://f.mtr.cool/qdjerovszb #DoctorWho #Whovian #ChristmasGift #TARDIS

Yikes. The #AlienEarth finale. Was that it? That was perhaps the poorest episode of the lot (and none of them were that good, apart from ep3 on the ship). They've not only neutered the Alien (What the actual fuck?) but worse than that, they removed any and all tension. What a total mess.

Watching the #AlienEarth finale. Hopefully it try and make sense of the mess it’s gotten itself into. However, I very much doubt it…

Velociraptor day 🦖would be a lot more interesting and just as likely to happen 🤣🤣🤣

I am now starting the CHURCH OF SOCIAL POSTING to combat fascism. It has worked so well so far. No DIRECT ACTION ever needed…

To everyone hoping to rapture today… We all can’t wait for you to fuck off.

I really ought to get off my sofa but…

We feel emotions because the universe can’t… Having a deep moment. Sorry.

I’m on a goddamn bus. Redundancy sucks

Presently, somewhere on a beach in Turkey…

Finally getting around to editing my latest novel, the next addition to my Shattered series, featuring everyone’s favourite empath bastard: ‘Shattered Worlds’ - set for a November/December release. I might even get around to designing the cover…

A certain level of digital civility - formerly known as ‘friendship’ but now more accurately classified as ‘mutual toleration among internet strangers’ - is best shown by not publicly correcting their apostrophe-laden atrocities across their many grammatically incendiary status updates…GOOD MORNING

Today marks another successful orbital cycle since I legally agreed to share my cereals, wifi password, and opinions about duvet thickness with another bipedal chaos unit. Unsure of the rest of the multiverse, but this version of reality still has many uncontrolled chuckles and cosmic conjunctions.

For August's Filthy Fridays we have... SPENCER JONES  GET TIX: https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/filthy-fridays

Post BBQ beers and the Wimblerdon Men’s final. Nice

I have joined the collective! A mass movement for a new left party, created by Jeremy Corbyn. Signup here:  https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/join?source=direct_link& We are the Collective... #WeAreBorg!

Bathed in the thermonuclear murmur of an unremarkable star, I am improbably alive, questionably upright, and undeniably drunk. And for one gloriously illogical moment, life has forgotten to be difficult

Just spent 20 minutes scrolling through my Facebook feed—a digital landfill curated by lunatics. Three actual posts from friends. The rest? A relentless diarrhoea of clickbait, conspiracies, and brain-melting bollocks. It’s like being slapped with a wet sock full of stupid.

Bit of a zigzag few weeks—turns out I’m being made redundant. Not quite the end of the world (that’s still scheduled for a Tuesday), but definitely one of those bureaucratic hiccups the universe throws in just to see if you’ll spill your tea. Irritating? Massively.

Al in all, and for one particularly annoying reason, today has been a rather disappointing Tuesday… GOODNIGHT!

5:10am start as I’m back at training bootcamp after a 3 week hiatus. Its gonna be a sweaty one… GOOD MORNING!

Giving these a new home today. Happy to know they will be getting a lot of love and attention #IndieMusician #bass #BeUnusual

Yes, I iz back from hibernation innit. Hello world! And here's my new tap in the hands of Rod, my plumber, costing £80 effing quid (he tells me)! #AmWriting #AmHot #AmGoingToSitOutside

Me and my progenitor shared a significant event on this day a certain number of years ago in a different century.

Finally wrote about my autism diagnosis for the first time! It's up on Substack now - think of it as a 'greatest hits' of my neurodivergent experience (so far). kjheritage.substack.com/p/late-diagn...

The superb Wavy Line live at Brighton EMOM, Machine Learning, which I unfortunately was unable to attend. Marvellous stuff: youtu.be/r896CyzSXus?... #WavyLine #MachineLearning #EMOM #Brighton

Dehydration level 45%. Recall of previous evening 2%. Embarrassment factor… 91%! Boy! What a night! GOOD MORNING!

Rather drunken ‘art’ evening last night. I think we were trying to paint some kind of bird…

Watching’Blink Twice’. 30 mins in and it’s kinda okay… so far

Dumped Threads and Insta. Now trying to work out what to do about Facebook (spit). I see blue skies ahead.

Finally got the fire going…

Merry Christmas one and all xxx

My lifetime being a news junkie ended on Nov 7th. Taking myself out of the cycle (avoiding all news programs, reports and telly while blocking words and phrases from my various feeds) was difficult but has done me a world of good! 😀 GOOD MORNING!

Wow! #TheJackal starring Eddie Redmayne is sooo bad. ‘Ruthless assassin?’ Hahahaha! Watered down nonsense. Day turning suddenly into night (continuity anyone?), CIA operatives who have the same accuracy as Stormtroopers and a script that sounds like it was written by AI. Avoid.

Still reduced!

Ummm...Dollar General? You ok? Anything we need to know? Like...what...or *who* is in stock?

Starting now at m.twitch.tv/djjakerudh it’s 5+ hours of classic ‘70s & ‘80s new wave music videos featuring special guest DJ Matthew Lineham - creator of this new wave masterpiece! How many artists can you name? Hmm

Hi guys, can you pls stop sharing screenshots of what the orange one or his cronies did, said or posted. Moderation can only block actual words & phrases, not images and I don't want that shit in my life right now.

I’m on Masto, BlueSky & Threads (and a presence on Insta and Twitter). A shared experience, that I’ve seen on all platforms, is harassment. It affects different people in different ways but my advice is to ALWAYS BLOCK with no comment and, if you can, to move on. Don’t feed the fire… put it out.

Want to use Bluesky but everyone posting about the orange one is doing my head in. I’m having an ‘all news embargo’ as I’m sick of it all. Even blocking UK news. Looking for a head in the sand app?

Who’s up ready for the #LasVegasGP?

For the next few weeks, '3000 Writing & Plot Prompts' is reduced to only only 1.99... Everywhere: Links to all your stores here: books2read.com/3000 #writingprompts #amwriting #christmasgifts

On Monday we learnt that 1 in 3 children are living in poverty… And that deprivation has hit a record high Given their new found compassion for struggling Brits Where’s Jeremy Clarkson, Nigel Farage and Andrew Lloyd Webber to fight their corner? …anywhere?

Another week of no news and I’m not feeling like I’m missing out at all. On the contrary… I feel a certain and pleasant lightness of being… 😌#FuckTheMedia

My review of Dead Pool & Wolverine? I fell asleep halfway through…
