Big moves for three of these this week (though certainly not what I had in mind for one of them). Still, I can give you my PayID if you want it make it four.

The word ‘toadstools’ is so cool. Like you’re telling me that Mother Earth is pulling up a chair for area amphibians? A fungal throne from which froggy can dangle his little legs while contemplating the pond? As nature intended? Superb, no notes.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

Talking to David Byrne about moisturiser, buildings with faces, autism poetics and the nature of humour was truly a life highlight! I’m really proud of this weird, funny, earnest interview, out now in The Big Issue. Please buy and read it!

Cover of the magazine The Big Issue. David Byrne wears a salmon pink suit on a sky blue background. His eye line is directed to the left and slightly downward. His arms are splayed at his sides. In a bold, off-white font, the headline reads, “DAVID BYRNE: TALKING HEADS, ASKING QUESTIONS AND MAKING SENSE OF IT ALL”.

If the guy who runs the airport gets to govern an arts festival, then he should let me, an artist, have a say on how to run the airport, because I have ideas!

Among Diane Keaton’s many accomplishments is her 1987 directorial debut: the experimental documentary Heaven, about how people envisage life after death. It’s wacky, erratic, at times uncomfortable, and streaming in full on yt. Vale, DK 🖤

someone should give me—an autistic aunty with laser focus and great taste—a Dear Abby-type advice column (Dear Autie? Autie Aunt?), in which I dole out my incomparable autistic wisdom and opinions, i am not even joking

“Dicky’s daddy’s hand was shoved somewhere near Dicky’s brain stem. My throat was in my stomach. Their hearts were in vaudeville. But we were all in Kentucky.” Mina Tavakoli at the ventriloquist convention is a new jewel in the crown of ‘curious outsider explores niche community’ journalism. Superb

Recently, I’ve seen the terms “non-neurotypical”, “autism-individual” (offensive to me as both an autist and a copy editor), and “person with lived experience of the spectrum” used in order to avoid simply saying “autistic”, and I just… 🫠

when you were a tween, did you make certificates for your doctor’s wife, awarding her for her interest and encouragement, or were you neurotypical

A deeply Y2K-era certificate designed in Microsoft Publisher. The A4 piece of paper is decorated with clip art images of books, a graduation cap, a scroll and a quill. The text reads:

THANK YOU
This is awarded to:
Mrs Khosa
With many thanks
For your interest and encouragement
Love from Aimee Knight
