I’d rather be autistic than a Republican. Every fucking time.

Thank you so much to the Booksellers Association for awarding me Author of the Year for a second time - love you all - what remains of my career is about to go through a drastic change, so this means a lot - here is my acceptance speech @lucia-oc.bsky.social @zenabarrie.bsky.social

I was grumpy earlier but I’m right back into it now. #Strictly.

This is probably the peak of MTV Europe's power on the UK charts #totp

Mr Vain the first UK number one single since the 1950s which wasn't available in 7-inch format. You can find out lots more pop facts like that in my calendar of pop book #DontStopTheMusic, still very much available, along with my new one, #IntoTheGroove. #totp

Different time klaxon. The first TV showing of Pretty Woman put It Must Have Been Love back in the charts. That was the power of that film, terrestrial TV and the charts in 1993. #TOTP

Shut your legs love we don’t want to see your breakfast #TOTP

Is this ‘the’ famous codpiece performance? #TOTP
