The best joke I've ever had to miss the punchline of was one uninspiring election (I forget which year) when I decided to spoil my voting slip by writing "people who count ballots are cunts" across it.

There's a scene in Derek where someone asks him if he wants a diagnosis and Derek's like "will it change who I am? No? Then why bother" and I've often seen it shared online as something really profound and insightful. I spent 5 years doing a job where I ran focus groups with learning disabled...
The TV show Derek exists because Ricky Gervais wanted to do something with the grim impressions he amused his mates with at school. Stuck in a load of mawkish gubbins about kindness to throw people off the scent.

It's been HOURS. Still thinking about the child who today told @joewellscomic.bsky.social that comedians are "sad people who make people laugh". Oh. OW.

Firstly, thank you very much. It's actually a cycle helmet I believe but maybe the cover could be used as a sort of rorschach test?
Is that a rib cage under the cat mug? If not, what should I be seeing? (Yes, I ordered a copy)

We've got a book coming out and I'm super proud of it! It's a bunch of funny autobiographical stories with a neurodivergent theme but it's not in any way inspiring or informative. Pre-orders really help to get it in the charts and to let bookshops know its popular. Link is in my bio.

I was reminded today of a spam popup I saw decades ago, the phrasing of which makes me laugh out loud every time I remember it.
It said "would you mind fucking a slag from Southampton?"

Fucking hell, train travel is expensive. I mainly drive so had forgotten/its got expensive since I last used it. Just short of £100 for a day return from Portsmouth to london (plus my tube) it costs about £30 in petrol.

I mutter something about magic and boss baby. We continue eating in silence.

Weird to think that we experienced the tiny blip in human history where seeing a picture of something happening meant you knew it actually happened.
