My friends and I are sponsoring three players from our Women’s Ice Hockey team - the Canberra Pirates - in the New South Wales Ice Hockey League. The Pirates are the reigning champions - and we LOVE being involved with these wonderful people! None of us play - but we love going to the games!!

Sorry to hear about Jeff Bezos's rocket exploding prematurely. A good technique to prevent that from happening is to try thinking about something you find totally unarousing or even repulsive, like giving workers a living wage or paying a fair share of taxes.

We are VERY lucky to have her playing for the Caps! She brings the energy and enthusiasm EVERY game - and the number of singlets with her name on them is CRAZY!!

Trump has two priorities: Stay out of Prison Take as much money as possible That's all his Presidency is about.

In Perth this weekend and encountered this chap, @tonymartin.bsky.social and @thepotsnpans.bsky.social.. Did not offer me any “Quokking Good Bargains” though.. #sizzletownpodcast #sizzletown #qokknet #thisisdizzystuff

An hour ago, Trump posted a video of himself saying, "To be a great nation, you must have religion and you must have god." On behalf of those who want neither: Pass and fuck off.

Donald Trump makes me wish I had more middle fingers.

Absolutely.F_CKING.right!!

How do I sign a Petition to get #JohnForslund to sing “Pinball Wizard” on the telecast? (Leather Pants are NOT required!).. Help a guy out @alisonl.bsky.social @pipershaw.bsky.social ..?!

Bit of a change of pace from my silliness.. ..here are some pictures I took last night at the Rehearsal for today’s Music By The River just over the border in Queanbeyan. “The Music Of Queen” - featuring George Ellis, Kirrah Amosa, Greg Gould and members of the Canberra Symphony Orchestra. [1/n]

These damn Superb Owl Commentators mentioning the S-word all of the time.. Don’t they WATCH Hockey - and know that is not allowed..?!?!

No this isn’t a scene from Melania. To explain it in human context “She’s running from her husband after flirting with him and wasn’t ready”

That Goalie Interference call was a special kind of B.S.! Apparently you can interfere with a Goalie WITHOUT actually touching them..! #TotalBS

I'm at a loss at this point other than to say: Step One: ICE, get the fuck out of our cities Step Two: Abolish ICE And YES enforce immigration law. YES. But not this way. Enough. ENOUGH.

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

Now that it’s fine for Jack Smith to speak in public, gotta be time for the Dems to hold a Shadow Hearing and give him the UNINTERRUPTED time to speak on the issues he found.. #Trumpstein #PresidentEpstein #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #DoItNow

Attention Seattle friends.. This saddens me SO MUCH! Please stay safe on the streets.. Wish this would stop/go away - we want to be able to come to the PNW and visit you all, see CPA and our beloved Kraken - and taste your famous Beers - but we can’t until these shenanigans cease!

Just shows what kind of a sycophant/clueless individual this clown is.. The bigger question is why they are given a platform to spout these lies - and why they remain generally unchallenged in the mainstream media.. www.cnbc.com/2026/01/20/t...

this is not a drill

Trump just handed Russia and China all kinds of pretext and precedent to take illegal, unilateral action. We are headed into very dangerous times.

Yeah - that’s about right. #WarCriminals

Yeah - pretty much apparently..

Big Tech these days in a nutshell

Just saw my first ad for @mitchmctaggart.bsky.social ‘s brilliant “Last Year Of Television”.. Can’t wait for this year’s edition - and for my annual rewatch of all of the previous seasons!

More of this please! Much, MUCH more!!

John Forslund and Eddie O - I LOVE you guys.. *NEVER* CHANGE!! @seattlekraken.com @khn.seattlekraken.com #GoKraken #BestCommentators #Legends

Woo hoo!! It’s HOCKEY TIME AGAIN!! I know it’s only Pre Season, but just WOO HOO!!! #GoKraken

Well - thanks to nice work by the idiot in charge in the U.S., Australia Post are no longer delivering Parcels there.. Not content with arsing up his own country, he’s now taken it upon himself to interrupt everyone else’s as well.. Honestly, this is why we can’t all have nice things..

Ah 'The Shovel' - you've done it AGAIN!! theshovel.com.au/2025/07/17/n...

2 minutes 55 seconds of absolute genius. RIP Brian Wilson youtu.be/M0lj3WX_5ps

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Hello American peeps.. This damn Liberty Mutual ad is driving me crazy! What is an E-moo..? That big flightless bird comically carrying the swag and running away from home is called an E-mew (Emu).. Could someone please correct that for me - as it's severely interrupting my Hockey viewing.. Thanks!

That's Kraken Hockey, Baby!! Strong and fast from the word go - and always looked in control.. Couldn't be prouder of the effort! Honestly - why can't it always be like this?! #SeaKraken

And unveils new political party, 'Trumpet of Patriots'.

Great game from Gru today! Also excellent to see him interviewed afterwards and talking about his time in the AHL. An excellent attitude - hope he comes back bigger and better than ever!

Anyone tell me when the Hockey’s gonna start? I seem to have tuned into UFC fighters in Hockey gear..? (For the record, I like it! 🙂)

Ten years ago today I took this (shonky) photograph.. Seattle - you really are amazing place, and we can’t wait to get back to be in you again!

Fkng 'Goaltender Interference'. What a load of crap that was! #SeaKraken

My ‘Office’ for this afternoon.. Some open-air quizzing in Canberra.. Now let’s hope these clouds go away!

We love our UC Capitals #WNBL team - and seeing the team win live is brilliant!! Even more exciting was being asked to participate in the pre-game and read the Acknowledgement of Country. I speak in front of people every week - but not in front of over 1,000!! Thanks for the opportunity, #UCCaps!!

Shoulder-to-the-head contact and the *KRAKEN* are to blame..?! FML!
