By day I'm a producer in the games industry, happily making little spreadsheets and Gantt charts, and by night I improvise nonsense or wander around stage with a microphone.

My next nail appointment is the day before I head to #AdventureX. Which means I could get AdventureX themed nails. I don't know what they would look like. But it's an option.

BETRAYED BY MY OWN FACE Got this message from a promoter after a gig last night. I think I'm generally quite an autistically neutral person but apparently if you do edgelord comedy near me my face will set off a beacon visible from Cornwall.

Oh my god

I love when people get things wrong but are earnestly trying to do right, I find it really sweet. I met an older woman recently who excitedly told me about a friend of mine that "she's the first they I've met!" Like bless you you are trying and it is wonderful.

I stepped on a dead rat on the way home tonight so whoever Britain's Corvo Attano is please do some low chaos things the environmental storytelling is getting out of hand.

I would simply try *not* to impress Freddy Quinne

Like on this, did you know that I can't wear too nice a dress on stage? If I go above a certain level of fanciness people stop laughing at the jokes. Same set, completely different response. It's fascinating.

A person at my gig tonight told me that in Algeria it is seaguls rather than storks who deliver babies. I know that both are just a story told to children but I couldn't imagine trusting a seagul with my infant. I imagine it would eat it whole at the first opportunity.

The publisher behind the popular product 'Video games' has cancelled all production of video games. Again. For like the third time this month. It's absolute madness, and all of it because the dumbest motherfuckers who have ever lived are betting society itself on glorified autocorrect.

Actual crime.

I'm very tired and very angry. Free to read.

I see edgy boi is now apologising for doing a rape joke as if that wasn't going to be the natural progression of what I saw on stage. You can't appeal to the lads and the progressive crowd, which side is going to win out?

If closing surely the least expensive radio channel the BBC has (run by a tiny number of people, broadcasting the work of mainly dead people), bothers you, then why not sign this petition you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/sa...

At long last, we have created a way for you to take away Nikki's free will, from the classic horror movie "don't take away Nikki's free will"

oh no

Go see the show that made me go "Huh how does she not have fringe flu" (and also laugh a lot)

The BBC does seem determined to destroy everything good or worthwhile about it and I'm not sure what the endgame is.

Closing Radio 4 Extra will not create savings of note. It commissions no original programmes. It pays modest radio royalties, producers and hosts. That's it. So the BBC archive is gonna be left to collect dust?

As a rule, there's a lot of excellent stuff in Weekend Update. And then there's a lot of edgy boi material I could hear at any open mic. Punching down at people's appearances, rape and nonce gags, route one boring stuff like this. And you know they can do better.

I do prefer when #SNLUK Weekend Update does material I couldn’t just go and read on Facebook. The Roman joke? Lovely. The Gillis stuff? Great. The French are smelly and surrender a lot? You happy with that, yeah?

... I think this week's musical guest might not be just the worst musical guest of the series but also the worst musical performance I've ever seen. #SNLUK

Sadly there seems to be very little empirical correlation between "people who believe 5G/wifi is evil" and "people who have therefore decided to log off"

I think Ghost in the Shell is the closest thing I have to being a Star Wars fan, in that I think I enjoy it and then any time I watch most versions of it I'm like "No, this is not what I'm here for."

At Ilkley Playhouse for a book talk and they're advertising that they're doing a show of The Ladykillers written by Graham Linehan which feels. Concerning.

As a side note, I need to stop starting any bits I don't have a good segue for in my sets with "As a side note".

Played a couple of hours of Control Resonant tonight and delighted to report that I am still bad at videogames.

Looking through reviews and they keep mentioning AI features in their positives. No! Let me know how easy it is to turn the lying plagiarism suicide advocate off at the very least!
