Everyone in Melbourne rn

50 years ago, #Melbourne trains mostly ran every 20 minutes in the evening. Our population has almost doubled since then... but in 2025 they run FEWER evening services, mostly every 30 minutes. Time for State Government to fund #MoreServicesNow

Thank God for the word ‘Cinema’.

Saw the funniest show at Melbourne Fringe tonight, Adam McKenzie's "One Man" Sketch show. You've 2 more chances to see it. GO!

Someone asked me the other night what my fifth favourite piece of obscure Australian TV media is. Again, can't say it's specifically my fifth favourite, but I reckon the ABC Bunny and Clock with "To Cut A Long Story Short" is easily Top Ten at least.

Just watching Tammy and the Bachelor for the first time and gosh it really hits me that Leslie Neilson was absolutely gorgeous when he was a young man.

Will Arnett did stand-up for real for his new film role

Katy Manning is 79 today, Happy Birthday Katy 🎁🎂

You turn on ch 10 to see Colbert and news+ is interviewing a guy with an Australian flag hanging behind him. Jesus.

Today is the final episode of the show! wtfpod.com

On Indigenous Peoples' Day I'm re-sharing the episode of @thisguysucked.com on which I spoke with host @ceaubin.bsky.social about why, even in his own day, people thought Christopher Columbus sucked. 💙📚 🗃 #medieval #earlymodern #histsci #renaissance #maps #geography #cartography #empire 1/2

Tonight's repeat Hard Quiz final round is Kate Bush vs The Goodies and boy is this my wheelhouse!

Aw, man. Keaton was legit one of the greats. The people I know who worked with her all have nothing but incredibly glowing things to say about her. Worked right up to the end. A real loss.

Diane Keaton could move seamlessly between comedy and drama, and is one of the reasons so many iconic 1970s (and beyond) films are so amazing, influential and memorable. She was one of the greats.

Rest in peace Diane x

I saw a clip of the wonderful Thomas Keneally saying that it’s ’copyright’ not copy charity www.asauthors.org.au/news/its-not...

Its been two years since we lost the shining light of joy that was Cal Wilson. Here she is at Sammy J's 50 year Show with Sammy at the Northcote Town Hall in 2018.

Been missing my beautiful mate Cal for two years today. Love you, Cal.

Guess where I was tonight? Got a bit jumpscared when I saw this poster on the stairs, taking me back to the last time I was here, in April, to see Rhys Darby along side their regular Improv group Something Good Improv.

Nice to be acknowledged on me actual 70th birfdee! (you have to scroll down a bit) www.news.com.au/entertainmen...

Have been weeping over everyone's love and concern for Dolly Parton, am so glad she's not seriously ill.

Thinking about how human cloning technology could be used to not only revive famous musical acts, but make them even better. Just imagine Crosby, Crosby, Crosby, Crosby, Stills, Stills, Nash, Young & Young

These arseholes steal your stuff and then tell you to 'opt out' of being burgled. 'Promises more granular control'? (What even is the point of words?) Promises a gravel sandwich, more like. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Realised that I’m now treating funny viral videos in the same way footballers celebrate goals — 1) initial joy, 2 sudden panic it might be AI/offside 3) lengthy investigation as joy saps away 4) conclusion, joy modulated through fatigue if proven legit/onside, but angry and gutted if AI/offside

I’ve had an email from a hotel saying ‘we are eagerly awaiting you’ which seems a bit OVER-keen if anything. Rubbing their hands in reception, cackling. ‘Here he comes. Any time now.’

I fucking love any comedy performer that actually knows how to fill laughter breaks with interesting face-business and Routledge was among the best to do it. X
