Everyone in the 385 Bourke St office tower has been told to stay put and not come down to the lobby due to an emergency incident. We can see fire appliances including a heavy rescue appliance out the window, as well as police cars blocking off Bourke St, but we have no idea what’s going on.

Hypothesis: Taskmaster and Game Changer are both AuDHD shows but Game Changer leans more ADHD and Taskmaster leans more autism

Look, that is a really philosophical consistent take.

this just happened to me! a specialist was reviewing the notes from my annual physical and asked what Dr. Cortez was treating me for it took us a couple of minutes for us to figure out that it was the medication Cortef

Releasing the arrestees at Golden Hour is a gift to all the photojournalists and videographers who were soaked in pepper spray and tear gas, whose camera gear was wrecked, and whose bones cracked last week, courtesy of NJ State Police and ICE.

From the archives: [At the gay club] HIM: “Dude, what’s in your pocket?” ME: “Oh, I’m just doing the handkerchief code thing.” HIM: “That’s a semaphore flag. Where did you even get this?” [Meanwhile, at sea] SAILOR: “Sir, the merchant frigate has indicated that it’s a bottom into blowjobs.”

God fucking dammit, Microsoft speech-to-text. I know exactly why you auto capitalize the word "halo" and as a disabled person I urge you to fuck yourself with the nearest rusty barbed wire wrapped around a baseball bat. Fuck your branding forever.

First footage I’ve seen of the inside of NSW TrainLink’s new CAF Civity rolling stock that is scheduled to replace the XPT in 2028 (albeit filmed through the windows). Still seething about the lack of a sleeper car obviously, but the cafe car looks interesting https://www.youtube.

Look I know that this is an ice cold take straight out of the freezer, but it’s categorically bad to out people as gay, and I’m still mad at Gawker Media for creating a situation in which I am forced to agree with Peter Thiel on something

RE: https://mastodon.social/@matthiasott/116609310065016685 Fuck me this is bleak. Google are replacing search with an LLM whose opinions and sentiment are dictated by the highest bidder.

One of my least favourite things about LLMs is how they are very good at producing convincing-sounding justifications for things that are wildly ungrounded in truth or reality.

Unlike the culture war bullshit playing out in US and UK courts, there is now a fairly solid legal precedent in Australia that sex can be changed according to the law and gender identity discrimination is recognised as such.

There are people out there, many among them software engineers themselves, who genuinely, truly excited about the possibility of a future where all software is created by running statistical models that pretend to be a software developer of years prior.

alright who set Melbourne’s draw distance to N64 levels this morning

I appreciate the public figures who have responded to clearly inflammatory questions such as "Can a woman have a penis?" by pointing out how the speaker is obsessive, hateful, and acting in bad faith. But. But, I must point out that "yes" is a perfectly good answer to that question.

I am at a pub which, unbeknownst to any of us before arriving, had a poetry open mic One person had a long winded poem which despite not touching on any such topics prior, ended “for I am just a male, and lack a woman’s touch” and the table I’m at of about 10 sapphics collectively shuddered

2-way protected bike lane post of the day 🦃

It’s nice when we’re biking and we don’t have to think about traffic for a minute. The kids drift way out ahead and I’m not hovering or narrating every move. This is how it’s supposed to feel 🚲

Okay, so unverified rumours are that the first X’trapolis 2 revenue service will be a 9:06 departure from Flinders Street on the Upfield line. And I hope those rumours are true because I got up early and everything.

found a whole operation of unmanned youtube channels making completely unchecked long form slop videos where the ai voice simulacra regularly trips up & does this for a full ten minutes every time. all the very legit comments are like "NO! THATS NOT TRUE! YOU LIE HE DID NOT" & never acknowledge it.

AI has progressed to the point where it can accurately simulate what it would sound like for someone’s insides to be turned into a slurry and forcibly expelled from their body. The future is now.
