Just saw the guy who got mad at "girled cup". I've been offline so idk if he was a main main character but boy, he tried

I wanted to name a sub-brand of drinks after this fish and everyone in my life yelled at me. We have another product coming out... and mudfish is on my mind again

There's robot fighting live on YouTube atm. It's not the heavyweights but there's some great bots competing. www.youtube.com/live/cIdb5w0...

Watched Master and Commander for the first time. It could've been eight hours longer and I would've watched all of it and wanted more.

New post up on Beer Diary — a climb to the top of the absolute mountain of data that came out of the recent Australian International Beer Awards. With the sizable herd of a dozen various 'champions' crowned each year, there's a lot to contextualise and interesting quirks to uncover among it all.

Our town of 4500 has a daily paper and a radio station, and it's so nice. Tuning into the weekend sport chat and just hearing what all the townsfolk are up to.

I watched a few of her videos and it's very apparent she has no concept of what a joke is. It's just being mean to people she thinks are worse than her. Which, of course, has a massive audience of chuds cheering it on.

But if I don't own a dog I can have at it right?

This is an elite addition to any cheese and cracker combo. A+

Watching Scanners for the first time. So far so good. Did you know it's the first psychic nosebleed in cinema? Pretty neat.

I only just realised that it's World Parrot Day. So here are some parrots 🙂 Pale-headed rosella; mulga parrot; mallee ringneck parrot; bluebonnet parrots. #WorldParrotDay

Organised an indoor plant swap at the brewery... No idea how it was gonna work or how many people would turn up. It was torrential rain today so I figured people would stay away. And five people turned up. We chatted about plants. I scored some cool things. Genuinely good result.

I wonder if the speech at the start of Geostorm was a conscious homage to Shogun Assassin. Anyway I'm watching the 2017 flop, Geostorm. It's bad.

I'm part of a new biz association in our town, and we've asked all the founding members for short bios. You'll never guess how most people have written them. You'll never guess how long they are. You'll never guess what great shortcut they all used to create unreadable crap

Shining bright as always

New post on Beer Diary — admittedly it doesn't make much sense to do a deep dive on beer awards that happened nine months ago, but what does, these days? To make room in my brain for debriefs of the recent Australian awards and World Beer Cup, I had to go back home, via the magic of spreadsheets.

Sorry to the world but we solved this years ago

Imagine (justifiable) public consternation, and MSM coverage if someone held up the ISIS flag inside Parliament House? But this, by neo-Nazis championing the violent extremist 'remigration' trope I suspect won't elicit a single question even in parliament. #nzpol @ponekeantifa.bsky.social

why is one of Gmail logo different to the other two? I keep seeing the blue side on the first one, and thinking it must be a message or something.

I went looking on insta to send to someone and you'll never guess the results for "capybara in Hawaiian shirt"?! (Pages and pages of ai junk)

Melbourne folks go get a beer at the Catfish

I finally watched this over the weekend (@aleofatime.com recommended it ages ago), and it's excellent. An extremely charming and well-made dip into a niche subculture. Many obvious parallels with beer-ticking, and they nicely deal with the problem of obsession and risk of losing the fun in a hobby.

Once again

First day off in 12 days. I watched a bunch of robot fighting (NHRL), made cheese scones, napped, read my book (a Robin Hobb joint). Watched an episode of This is a Gardening Show. Now I'm making steak (with miso butter and a herb sauce) and drinking a rob roy. Cheers.

The ABC’s budget coverage is beyond parody.

In addition to Israel routinely beating, starving, torturing and raping Palestinians in its detention camps, new research by Israel's Physicians for Human Rights reveals that, in 2024, some 200 children were put in total isolation inside tiny punishment cells.
