Lovely people of Bluesky I just want you all to know how much I enjoy your company. I hope we keep on meeting like this XX

I’ve been left looking after the little one.

I’m at the hammer barn for pets and this name for dog food caught my eye. We all know dogs will eat their own barf, but a mass produced one?

if donald trump is blowing bill clinton and if monica lewinsky is blowing bill clinton… who’s flying the plane???

Smol kitty likes belly scritch

Finally home. Allow me to snooze a little.

A pit stop for the smolest one

Oh god, daughter has had an accident. She is OK, partner is OK, car is fucked, she’s on the phone and hysterical. Her fella is on the line to the police.

Night all. It’s been real.

Be careful out there guys, Bluesky appear to have no tolerance for hyperbole and are incapable of understanding context. It’s a bit of a worry tbh

Regular friends on here will recall my son’s trip to Sydney last year, the girlfriend dramas and all of the fear on my part because he’d only just got his drivers license. Anyway, he’s gone up there again, has been there a few days, and there’s drama unfolding already. Read on…

USA, you have a problem.

40% of women aged 15 to 44 in the US say they would move abroad permanently if they had the opportunity. Can't blame 'em.

Hearing the Liberals have abandoned Coke Zero.

I’m trying to work out who is more fucked, Trump or the LNP

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Very slight aurora happening here in Mooroolbark

@davehooper.com Hoping you can make it along on the 7th December Save Our Ships www.trybooking.com/DHERQ

Finished book 2 last night, Fail State. Don't judge me on how slowly I am reading these, I only get time at night when I get into bed and by then I'm sorta knackered. Anyway, it was also good, so I urge you to read them if you have not done so.

I've been out most of the day. What did the Libs decide?

Worth a read if you're interested in communities, planning etc.

Late lunch, and yes I know it is normally eaten for breakfast.

They should do a reality dating show for people over 55 and call it Damaged Goods. HA!😳😂🤣🤣Ian

If you see this, post an album cover with a motor vehicle on it

Still looking for solicitor jobs btw based in Melbourne, Australia. I am very junior in terms of practicing experience but have extensive experience in government departments doing legal work. Any leads/recommendations please let me know.

Aggressively unkempt: I did not expect this particular regret so late in life. I have so many other, graver, more operatic failings to lament. And yet, here I am, at sixty-one, uncomfortably aware that I’ve never really had… style.

I'm a massive fan of Beddy Rays. They do a sorta surf punk style which I enjoy. They've done a version of Khe Sanh for JJJ which you may like to watch/listen to. Whadaya reckon @jane13barnes.bsky.social? www.abc.net.au/triplej/like...

Appreciate the invite VicPol, but I don't think I am your type of recruit somehow.

Everybody - AND I MEAN EVERYBODY - should read this investigation into that hell hole Twitter and how this nine-month study and in-depth analysis found that it amplifies right-wing and extreme content (aka, the Nazi bar) This is *very* good investigative journalism and should ring alarm bells. 🚨🚨🚨

Finally getting around to reading the End of Days series by @birmo.bsky.social, and finished Zero Day Code last night quite late but then started straight in on Fail State because I was so into it. So I’ve had fuck all sleep but I’ll be repeating the process tonight! Go read them!

Wow @jane13barnes.bsky.social @jimmybarnes.com a blast from the past, February 2, 1980!

How did I, a "get everywhere early" type person, end up in a relationship with a "we are due at the place now and she's still in bed" type person? It causes me no end of stress.

Hello to the PM's socmed team. How about using alt text, particularly on a message about healthcare?

Had a job interview Wednesday. "We'll call you by Friday", they said. They didn't call 😟 Sad for me, but great for you, employers of the world! Don't miss your opportunity to hire an awesome and talented dude! www.linkedin.com/in/linkedind...

Hey just sending out love and hugs to all of you because we all need a bit of tenderness and consideration in life - sure l know a brief comment on social media probably doesn’t travel too far but the feelings behind them are genuine xxx

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn't from "Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Doctor Who", or "Transformers". Possibly too old for most of you, but Gigantor was a fave of mine as a youth

Turbo, hyper focused on the chicken being cut up in front of him. He’s knows he will get the scraps, and wants to make very sure that nothing gets “missed”.

I’m getting pretty sick of this fuckhead

Would you hire me? #JobInterviewDay

I'll say this now so I don't forget in the morning @davehooper.com . Good luck for tomorrow. You've got this. I hope the new suit looks great.
