Have always been a big fan of all of Dolly's music but particularly the subsection which can only be described as "absolutely harrowing ballads that will stop you sleeping at night". If you're not easily upset check out Down From Dover, Jeannies Afraid of The Dark and The Bridge

I wrote this piece for the metro and now seems like a good time to remind/inform people that there's this weird convention when you write an opinion piece that someone else gets to write the headline. metro.co.uk/2026/08/20/i...
My autism makes British pubs unbearable
Whenever my friends would suggest the pub, I would delay them in our student house.

🧠 The Final Episode is Out 🧠 After 4 years, 100 episodes, & 1 book we've decided to put Neurodivergent Moments Podcast to bed. BUT we will be popping episodes on the feed now and then so this isn't goodbye forever. Until, next time, thank u for the memories. 💕 Abigoliah & @joewellscomic.bsky.social
@mrjamesob.bsky.social hi James, I did the NP2BF podcast you hosted back in the day. Enjoying your chats about neurodiversity on LBC, I co-wrote a book on the subject. Its a comedy book, sort of David Sedaris if he had a diagnosis. Can I send you a copy?

People think Burnham is cool because he has opinions on music which is a small step up from every other PM who looks like they couldn't name a band (except for Theresa May who was a massive Cannibal Corpse fan) but his taste in music is absolutely the most boring dull old man's taste ever.
Had a fun gig in Glasgow last night. Asked what was good to do in the city, someone said the Ibrox, I didn't know what that was but people both boo'd and cheered so I said that I assumed it was a football stadium...
Enjoying my trip to Glasgow but missing lots of exciting things back home.
The soccerball is over so you have no excuse!
Soccer is over at this point. Phew !!!
Rolling out some new stuff with one of the greats later this month in Walthamstow. Apparently theres soccer on but it won't be as good as this.
July 22nd we have @joewellscomic.bsky.social & Paul Foot hosted by @susanmurraycomic.bsky.social at Trades Hall which has aircon to die for. Tix @wegottickets.bsky.social wegottickets.com/f/20663 pls RT
The best way to make friends is to make enemies out of existing pairs of enemies.
Just a quick note to say if you've read our book and enjoyed it then nice reviews on Amazon (yes, I hate Bezos too) and Goodreads really help.
Thank you! This is so lovely to hear, we deliberately wrote it to be fun for people who don't read a lot of books. Lots of short chapters, all exist independently.
I read a book! Not like me, as usually I get distracted & re-read sentences without registering any of it. This one's by autistic @joewellscomic.bsky.social & his friend Abi with ADHD & a name that makes me dizzy, with short stories that I can relate to and laugh at. blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...
Whenever I'm on the tube and big groups of people from an event get on and I always think "people who would go to this event are awful" and I realised today it's not the event, it's people. I don't hate Biffy Clyro fans or tennis fans, it's people I hate. All people.
Owning a hammock has improved my life more than even the most utopian predictions of AI ever could.
I regret to inform you that My Chemical Romance have recorded a cover of Common People and it's as bad as you'd imagine.
BBC cheaping out on zoom pro is the most 2026 thing I've ever seen
The book is out! Here are some pictures from the launch! Get it wherever you get your books.
Lovely to see @joewellscomic.bsky.social & @abigoliah.bsky.social at their book launch tonight! You can get it here: owlbookshop.co.uk/product/neur...
Hey library, folk looking for representative works by neurodivergent creators? I recommend Neurodivergent Moments: Sex, Sunscreen, Turtles and How (Not) to Pack a Suitcase - the title alone makes it worthwhile but the contents are open, honest, raw and hilarious! Trust me I am a Librarian! 📚📜
Ahead of it's publication (tomorrow) I have an interview with the authors of Neurodivergent Moments @abigoliah.bsky.social & @joewellscomic.bsky.social teenlibrarian.co.uk/2026/06/17/n... 📚📜
Big Day Tomorrow! Thanks @mattlibrarian.eurosky.social for the interview!

I wrote a blog for JKP about Neurodivergent Culture. Give it a read here: blog.jkp.com/2026/05/what...
What is Neurodivergent Culture? - JKP Blog
Comedian Joe Wells shares his thoughts on neurodivergent culture, and how his new book, 'Neurodivergent Moments' fits into that.

Why can't we have a strait pride month? (Not a typo just a suggestion for how to end the Iran war)
New Vince Staples is very good. Give it a listen if you like good things
Question: what is this womans job? Obvious answer is Doctor but she's not Dr Doctor. Is she just a woman whose surname happens to be Doctor and who thinks that gives her the authority to give out medical advice?
