Low clouds in Sydney today. Lucky shot from an iPhone from a slowly moving car on the Anzac Bridge.

I'm in an Annie Lennox mood this week so I am playing her on Spotify and this is the music video for A Whiter Shade of Pale... it's a bunch of people in a circus ring and Annie is dressed as bear and it is mad and beautiful and I love her SOOOOO much.

Folks, I seem to have upset the trolls with my bio line that says “leading people astray since the 80s” because apparently this is some expression of sinister intent rather than my propensity to decry an early bed time when the music is playing. If I have led you astray please comment below.

I’m absolutely fanging for some dirty bird please deliver one 3 piece pack of the colonel’s juiciest.

Annie Lennox is a goddess. That’s all.

Finally I, a Sydney person who frequently visits and loves Melbourne, can throw out the stupid bloody Myki card and feel free to use a tram outside the free zone (LOVE the free zone) to go visit places & friends without screwing around with a STUPID BLOODY CARD.

I miss San Francisco. Two years ago at this time I spent 6 weeks there. Loved it.

And I ran, I ran so far away... I am wondering about hairstyle inspo and this band and that song and things like that...

OMG. You absolute wankers.

Hanson claims she wants to win Grayndler? Ok bitch, come, spend all the money you have, you will never win my hood. NEVER.

The building that contains my favourite bar in the world is for sale and can someone please lend me US$16 million please and thank you www.redfin.com/CA/San-Franc...

I got up for a 6:30am meeting and it was cancelled. Thankfully the 7am is still on.

Can’t respond but this thread is full of pure joy at its most awesome American-ness. People coming together and grooving is something USA excels at and it’s fucking unreal. I have been there in scenes like this and it is electrifying. I’m so happy for them all.

Hot take: if you are presenting or something, do not EVER read your notes from your phone. It’s really really shit.

These people throw around millions like I do with cents. When people are struggling so much, it is obscene.

Fuck. Plane delayed by 6 hours. Stuck in bengaluru airport.

The entire fucking world treats disabled people so appallingly you are all fucking lucky I am too tired to hit you with my cane. I am FURIOUS but weak.

Code reviewed by WIRED uncovered an unreleased face-recognition system embedded in Meta’s smart glasses platform. Internally called “NameTag,” it’s designed to identify people via biometric data stored on users’ phones.

Clubbing in Delhi. Look up Scary Pockets on Spotify and put it on shuffle. Thank me later.

Pet peeve: glass topped desks/tables in hotel rooms. Mouse doesn’t work on glass ffs.

Hotel buffet Indian breakfast is basically pan fried carbs with plain yogurt when you can’t handle spicy or coriander. Delish though.

I’m in India. I remember how much I hated it last time.

I’m off to Delhi. Don’t be weird while I am gone ok?

Milestone moment: my less than a year old business has made enough $$ to pay me a little bonus! I went 9 months without a salary so it’s nice to be actually showing something for the effort. Proud of me.

I will never ever stop seeing Finn brothers live on stage.

Conservatives need to make up their mind. They can't slash immigration and say they're committed to manufacturing. Who do you think works in the factories?

Hey did you hear about eurovision? There was a delta between Australia and the winner 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Finished Project Hail Mary book this morning, booked tickets to see it at the movies tomorrow afternoon.

My dead ex husband, what a fucking arsehole. This fucker didn’t even leave any wishes re funeral. He was dying for 8 years and he died intestate and without funeral plans. He spent his entire adult life playing manipulative games with money and emotions, and he did this to keep that going. Bastard

I feel like this thing with Keli Holiday being locked out of the US about one tiktok from Abbie Chatfield a year ago is unlikely? Given he had apparently recently entered the US to do shows there, before going to Canada and then going back. Is it just a beaucratic snafu? www.bbc.com/news/article...

I am begging Americans to stop saying they are feeling pain from this war they started. Things are expensive is not pain. Having your school bombed by USA is pain.

The family chat is going off tonight. Very dark humour abounds. Not as a coping mechanism, more as a “oooh we can make these jokes because really who gives a fuck”. Live your life so that your children and ex wife don’t shrug when you die. There’s an idea.

Well, apparently he’s finally done it. My ex husband died about 30 minutes ago. Thank fuck that’s over, now we have to mop up the mess.

I have been estranged from my mother for more than 3 decades (I try not to keep count but it was a long long time before “no contact” was a concept and trust me there was a LOT less support and a LOT more judgement then). But I don’t find mothers day hard. I am a mother but we just don’t do it.

Still arguing with my father in my head after last night. And I know he’s going to get my daughters involved. Fucking generational trauma is really difficult to get rid of, did you know that?

Yeah so I just had a huge fight with my father that ended in him telling me to fuck off so how’s your Saturday night going?

Meet the Squid Galaxy! Messier 77, located 45 million light-years away, glows in this new Webb Telescope image. Those "tentacles" are actually vast filaments of hydrogen gas stretching into intergalactic space. A stunning view of a barred spiral in the constellation Cetus! ✨ #Space #Astronomy 1/4

Posting this because 😯 but also so I can watch it later.

While the world’s eyes are on fashion’s biggest night, we’re turning ours to the garment, retail, and warehouse workers who keep the industry running. From true love found on the picket line to a free tailoring school out of a Brooklyn basement — meet the New Yorkers who make it all possible.

Hmmm don't think I will make it, Qantas

Fucking chemist gave me generic when I asked for brand and if Ms M doesn’t have the brand one it’s like a two week anxiety attack. So now I have to go back, park, drag my disabled butt back into Blooms the useless chemist, swap them and then come home and try to get some fucking work done. FUCK.

Does anyone know anywhere in Sydney to buy African violets? I would love to have some in my bedroom but nobody really sells them anymore!

Having a person being in charge of monetary policy who is worth $100 million seems a problem to me, tbh.

It would appear that after 8+ years of false starts, my ex husband may actually be dying this week. Fucking finally… it’s been another broken promise to me and his children for way too long 🤣🤣🤣

Ah shit.
