I asked a work colleague (who's a good friend) to bring me back some matcha flavoured Kit-Kats from his first trip to Japan (which he loved, and he's going back ASAP). And when he gave them to me at work, they were in this AWESOME bag! How friggin' cute is this? #Japan #bag #knitted #ShibaInu

Checking out some of the VIVID festival lights before the concert… #VIVID #Sydney #festival #lights

Compilation of snippets from the Split Enz concert the other night... #SplitEnz #concert #Sydney

And here’s the well-known song that was segued to from the previous clip I posted. I grew up with Split Enz in NZ through the 70s and 80s, so was amazing to see them live… #concert #Sydney #SplitEnz #aotearoa

Who can guess what band I just saw in concert? First person to guess correctly gets a dick pic. (Not mine - no one wants to see that! 😳) Maybe I need to exclude fellow countrymen? 😬 #concert #Sydney #iconic

I finally put all the little snippets from the Lorde concert earlier this year in to one video... if you're interested... #Lorde #concert #Sydney

A photo of myself I don't actually mind. #selfie #beard #sometimeslowselfesteemcantakeabreak

Have I told you how much I love "Bubbas"? Oh... I do. How I do. This kid appears on my FB reels, and all his clients are...bubbas. This one. Oh...this one. That face. That beard. That ACCENT. His lucky wife. I am in love. 😍 #Bubba #Bear #bears #IwantaredneckBubbahusbear

Still one of my all time favourite Kylie tracks... This was the Freemasons remix she released as a video. And apparently paid for the video herself as her music company didn't think it was a "single". Very different from the album mix. I actually think I'll play this at my funeral. Love me. ❤️

I left Central when it was a lovely warm and sunny 23° C (73° F), and 2 hours later I arrived in Katoomba where it was 11° C (52° F) - plus windchill that made it feel much colder. Thank goodness I wore my little woollen vest! #Autumnishere #BlueMountains #itsgettingchilly

This guy. Oh my. There's just something about him. I wonder how many models know that they're being sexually objectified by many viewers - both male and female, gay, straight, bi, and everything in between? And what they might think? He's bloody gorgeous... #tightywhiteys #budgysmugglers

Yet another fantasy crush that is thoroughly beyond reach... due to heterosexuality and distance. I'd wonder if anyone fantasises about me, but I'm pretty sure I know the answer to that... *sigh* He'd make MILLIONS from OnlyFans 😜 #fantasyman #itsallaboutthebeef #BrussHamilton

I went down a rabbit hole on the internet, and it ended up with me looking for the real identities of the band members of Gwar. And oh my... "Blothar" is Mike Bishop... and he's a friggin' HOT big hairy bearded Daddy Bear. Be still my beating heart! #Gwar #DaddyBear #beard #hairyman #marrymenow

I know a *LOT* of you would want him to come and check your... plumbing. 😉 #targetedadvertising #sexsells #thealgorithmknowsme

Oh internet advertising... How *DO* you get inside my brain....? You know me so well? Why yes. I DO need to buy products from Cane Toad Equipment. I do indeed. As long as I get.... personal service. 😉 #targetedadvertising #sexsells #sodobeards

If you like a bit of Nu Disco, then my alter ego, DJ CubOz, finally got his shit together and did a new mix... You can download and/or stream it from the Google Drive link... here... ----->: drive.google.com/file/d/13Rd6... And enjoy! (Track listing embedded). 😀 #NuDisco #EDM #DJmix #clubmix

Adorable!!! #ABCNews #Tasmania #Hobart #possum

I'm not really a political person, but I'm pleased I live in a country where the government takes hate crimes against LGBTQ+ people seriously... Thank you. #LGBTQ #Australia

Now *THIS* is the sort of advertising that piques my interest! 😍

I know that "People Mover" cars are never gonna win design award, but... Is it just me, or is this thing.... FUGLY!!! 😱🤢

Connections Puzzle #1000🎉 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦 Yes. I’m so boring that this is all I have to post. 😂😂😂 #NannaBear

Rewatching / binging Stranger Things whilst house & cat sitting… Right from the beginning. And I have a question. Do North Americans really say nougat as Noo-gatt, and not correctly as Noo-gar? #edumacation

I have a friend who moved here from the Ukraine just over 20 years ago... And he has always called me "Lost Geologist". Because of my beard, no doubt. So I thought... let's see what ChatGPT would think of me as one. It friggin' NAILED it! LOL #AI #ChatGPT #thelostgeologist

So a (straight) work colleague quite often gets a bit tipsy, and posts some funny shit on FB... and if the algorithm lets me see it, then I normally react to it. He posted the most random thing, but ChatGPT let me generate an image of his description. Can non-Aussies tell me what's being juggled? 😉

Seeing a fellow countrywoman in concert earlier tonight (well, yesterday evening actually), and she tore the roof off! #Lorde #kiwitalent #Sydney #concert

I love that they use a lot of "Dad Bod" guys and chunky woofers in their advertising.... They could possibly know their target market very VERY well indeed! #budgiesmugglers #advertisingthatworks

I mean... I love animals... birds... you name it (maybe not some spiders, but I digress). But why is everyone suddenly losing their shit over these beautiful nocturnal birds of prey all of a sudden? 🤔 #superbowl

It was ignorant for me to read this news story for... reasons. 😜 www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

Out for dinner and the theatre with good ol’ @squarebeard.bsky.social Sydney Symphony Orchestra and the music of John Williams. It was awesome. #sydneysymphonyorchestra #johnwilliams #artofthescore

Praise Jeebers! Pepsi Max Mango is back! Now to add it to a splash of Malibu for a delicious tropical experience... #PepsiMax #bestnosugarsoftdrinkevah #mango #tasteofAustralia

Do you have an ever revolving playlist? (On Apple Music, Spotify, or whatever you prefer?) Do you have any tracks that are on the playlist always - no matter how much the rest changes? Songs that you can still listen to whenever they pop up, without skipping? Here's another one of mine. #hithouse

Do you have an ever revolving playlist? (On Apple Music, Spotify, or whatever you prefer?) Do you have any tracks that are on the playlist always - no matter how much the rest changes? Songs that you can still listen to whenever they pop up, without skipping? Here's one of mine... #konkan

Mutton dressed up as lamb? (I'm 56... should I break wearing clothes like this, and am I doing it correctly?) Finally opened up one of the 22 pairs of shoes that I bought almost 2 years ago during a major depressive episode. #OMGshoes #NannaBear #ontherunway #takeittotheball

Sometimes... something comes along that just hits the right spot on my funny bone. Consider myself thoroughly tickled. #dadjoke #badpun #simplehumour

I hang out with the prettiest ladies... 😉 (This is "Aunty Gloria", and it's a bit of an old pic...) One of the oldest, continuously running LGBTQI+ social clubs in the world... (Since the 60s - when homosexuality was still illegal in Australia) #Pollys #Sydney

The last V Set - the 40+ years workhorse of the Intercity fleet - will make its last run next Friday from Lithgow to Central. As I have a few days off before then, tonight was possibly the last time I ever drive one. So captured a pic for posterity. #VSet #train #Sydney #Intercity #endofanera

Disappointed. We have hedgehogs back home in NZ, but not here in Australia. But this didn’t taste like hedgehog at all. 🤣🤣🤣 #icecream #youscream #wrallscreamforeyescream #Maxibon #hedgehog

Why I’m a fatty, Part #376 Thank you Costco for my 1.58kg bag of Reese’s. What is this “56 Ounces” though? Some imperial throwback to the Dark Ages? 🤔 🤣🤣🤣 #fattyfattytwobyfour #couldntgetthroughthebathroomdoor #Reeses #peanutbutter #chocolate #fattynannabear

Getting to the bottom of a Hungry Jack’s Biscoff Storm where the ice cream has melted in to the crumb and syrup is… …orgasmic. (And a food orgasm is all I get these days. LOL) #HungryJacks #Biscoff #foodcoma

Bugger. A day (and evening) off work, and I just discovered that I am missing out on seeing Hot Chip at the Sydney Opera House tonight... (and tomorrow coz I'm working...) Bugger. Bugger. Bugger. 😢 #HotChip #SydneyOperaHouse #missingout

Lordy that Chicken Kara-age Ramen was delicious… those pieces were HUGE. I swear a whole (boneless) chicken was in there. And all for AUD$22 - incl. tax and no need to tip. (That’s about USD$14.73). We are a bit spoiled down here for good, affordable food… #karaage #ramen #hanamaruya #Bankstown

It's been a while... coz depression can be an energy sapping bitch. But finally... a new mix. If you add it to Apple Music (iTunes), the track list is in the Lyrics tab... Enjoy! #djmix #nudisco #djcuboz #somefunkychoons4you

A glorious day down near the harbour, catching up with a friend. But I am gonna be paying for not putting on sunscreen, thinking we’d be in a cafe somewhere, enjoying a meal… 😳 #Sydney #harbour #OperaHouse

I have enough clothes. I have enough jackets. I buy too much stuff online. But if *EVER* I wanted something, I could not want it as much as THIS! #culturekings #jacket #starwars #iamashoppingwhore

I need help. Finally opened a packet of clothes I ordered last month. And I have another order arriving tomorrow. 😳 It’s definitely a desperate search for a dopamine fix. I really don’t need them. 😱 #culturekings #oldbeartriestobefashionable #muttondressedupaslamb

Finally put together a little video from the concert a few weeks back... #atarashiigakko #jpop #concert

#MyFlickrYear25 (I can't believe such a boring and innocuous picture from a friend's apartment rooftop in a dubious Sydney suburb received so many views and likes! LOL)

Out for a Xmas evening walk with my bestie and big sister, Craige… Merry Christmas from Down Under! #christmas #bearsdownunder

I swear I don’t know how this building is staying upright! #Sydney #architecture #engineering #Central #Atlassian

Even though it's 37º today (in real temperature measurement... that would be about 99ºF for the imperialist heathens... 😂), I cooked a pork roast. And it turned out perfectly! Om nom nom! #porkroast #ordoyoupreferaspitroast
