RE: https://bne.social/@BNELights/115693973946731854 that's a mood for sure

Can't imagine in what scenario the illustrator would have given this little dude three feet, but here we are

Kinda love this error message on the bus

Maybe life would be better if I simply bought $PRODUCT.

"If everyone who streamed All Hell on Spotify had done so using Tidal instead, we would have an extra £31,847.38, which would double the amount we made from streaming of the album in this time period. Or if everyone used Apple Music it would have been £12,331 more."

Sent it to a music enjoyer buddy and he live-posted his listen-through while I was at the pub. Every time I'd look down there'd be another little music feeling, which is one of my favourite things

Very last minute, but I'm having another hangout tonight for LGBTQIA+ folks in the tech scene at The Plough tonight. Join us from 5:30pm, or click “follow” if you'd like to hear about the next one: https://events.humanitix.com/brisbane-lgbt-and-allies-in-tech-december-drinks #Brisbane

Given all that, uh, this was pretty bad: https://ashk.au/2025/12/04/bcec-charging/

I don't consider myself to have ADHD, although there's a LOT of media that wants you to self-diagnose. I've taken the odd quiz and it's like “nah”, but every so often I'll do something I consider an ‘ADHD moment’. Which, given all that, is actually a slur?

The river is high today. Whenever a CityCat passes, the waves crash over the riverbank and wash over the footpath.

Brain: buffering… buffering… *WORDSALAD!!* …buffering…

Is it latex or leather makes that noise? Either way, It's a visceral squeak

The Brisbane Metro rolls along the busway. Electric and silent, except the rubber tyres which squeak like an overly well-built latex fetishist attempting to tie their shoes

After a full week of heatwave conditions I'm wondering: what's an Australian summer mean to you? For me it's a time when everything slows down. Cold drinks, blue skies, the air conditioning wicking moisture from your shirt when you step inside. What's your core summer memory? #brisbane #australia

The #BOM website is now so slow you can sit there and watch it load like you're back on dial-up. I would have to actually go out of my way to get a score this bad, there's zero reason this stuff shouldn't be instant. What a waste 😭

The guy at the cafe whose name I don't remember makes a latte art seahorse on my coffee today. His mum got him a new jug for his birthday and he's been practising. I feel bad squashing it under the lid.

"Hello to the baby" I say, spotting the cockroach and reaching for the spray, as if my brain hasn't been completely rotted by things on the internet that nobody else has seen, let alone remembers.

TGIF. You mean it's not? Well let's make it.

We all know sitting is bad for you, which is why today we're introducing our latest concept for the stand-up toilet

Hail keeps bouncing into my apartment ❄️ #BNEWeather #BNEStorm

I wrote a letter to ChatGPT and I'm waiting patiently to find out what it responds before posting it here.

Ninajirachi won three ARIAs, taking home the Breakthrough Artist, Solo Artist, and Independent Release Awards. The whole album is the exact weird shit I need, and this music vid is exceptional https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWl1Tu9oZmY #NowListening

What a track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxWjiaAJ3ZY #NowListening

wibble bibble bam

Uh huh. https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/11/googles-sundar-pichai-warns-of-irrationality-in-trillion-dollar-ai-investment-boom/

This dry heat is gorgeous actually. I've been sitting outside all day and it's real nice. #Brisbane

The road is very bumpy, so as I try to configure the air conditioning on the car's touch screen I accidentally tap the ejector seat instead. Thankfully it has a confirmation, “are you sure you want to quit?” But as I reach to hit “no” the car hits another bump and moments later the rockets ignite…

Ash is typing…

Another coffee shop, Good Good.  Industrial polished concrete floors, and the menu projected on the wall in art deco gold and chrome. A place where everyone knows your name and a decaf, lactose free flat white for $7.30.

Ok I'm getting frustrated and this is the last shitpost of the day, but someone should really stop Apple from making software. They're just so bad at it 💀

Lets Encrypt: run this command and it's done.Apple app signing: first, summon a demon.

I want the wubs to sound wet

So what's everyone up to? I started and finished work early, and now I'm feeling a bit zonked tbh.

It really is frustrating as a man that men's fashion has so many, highly functional pockets

the main problem with working from the office is hungry 😤

Are we all ready for the year 2026? Only 1,260 hours to go.

🏳️‍🌈 Brisbane LGBT+ & Allies In Tech Drinks happening on Thursday. If you haven't already, check out the event page and consider coming along!

A new pilates studio has opened in my building and the promo material is all soft light and rows of identical, moisture-free white women moving black be-leggingsed legs in time with rote precision. Where is the inclusivity in that? Why is nobody offering hairy bear pilates?

This has a behind the scenes vid over on Insta which makes me very happy https://www.instagram.com/reel/DK2b7sFRuXy/

It's such a beautiful night. The sky is still blue from the last of the sunset, and the fairy lights on my balcony give everything the cinematic cyan and orange look. It's warm, but my fan makes a gentle breeze. Crickets chirp and I can hear people around the neighbourhood enjoying life.

Delivering on an election promise by handing over my 2008-2025 election night tie to the Museum of Australian Democracy, Old Parliament House, Canberra. When I paid $20 for it in 2008, never thought it would end up in a museum.

Maybe I did this to myself. It's possible I did do this to myself. I'm not having fun any more.
