My favorite piece of content today.

This is a horrifying thought

More finding out.

Honestly couldn't provide a worse surface if they tried.

Just realized today is isn't Thursday

Corporate phrenology: “This applicant has the brain-pan of a stagecoach tilter!”

Marginal gains. Better than none.

Old mate literally stood with Natzis.

Play stupid games

Have they considered that overrunning the Bayside population is clearly a nett social good?

Day 6 of our book launch week: Market day! And look at this wee stack of book beasties seen in the wild at one of our favourite writing cafes! It's a big day today. Our regular markets for breakfast and shopping, then a country Christmas market for early present perusing. (More in alt text.)

Watching my eldest kid's cricket team play. The younger siblings have 'started a cricket podcast', and are interviewing the kids as they come off the field.

'So far, Australia has forcibly sent four men to Nauru from [the "NZYQ" cohort], in exchange for more than $400m upfront and up to $70m a year. The scheme is expected to cost Australia $2.5bn over 30 years.' Fighting Tories doesn't come cheap.

my new AI powered lamp is trained on millions of lamp interactions so it understands that 50% of chain pulls are to turn it on and the other 50% are to turn it off. and honestly, it's a little spooky how it knows exactly what i want almost half of the time

I prefer the singular possessive, "Oh, for fuck's sake." It just sounds more professional.

This is disingenuous. The BOM briefed emergency services on the new website, including that some fire danger information should continue to be accessed via the old site. If CFA didn't pass this to their members the failure is there.

I do not plan on waxing my oval office.

This is complete hogwash

My favorite comment on the FT story

Worst sex advice ever.

This is brilliant

Age restrictions on social media for over 50s.

support for stopping all immigration drops by 2/3rds if you tell people it'd leave the NHS short staffed

Might walk the dog

Stop forcing this shit on us.

Stop jamming your 'AI assistant' into everything. No, I do not need your bullshit summary of a 2 page document.

Wake up babe, new “formerly known as prince” just dropped

Plug in hybrids are an expensive rort, who would've thought? www.abc.net.au/news/science...

lmao, Bolt lives in Victoria but I feel like he's never seen people here?

Dan Andrews didn't actually fall down the stairs level of derangement.

📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms). It’s also concerning. 1/

DOS archaeology ain't much, but it's honest work.

Your regular reminder that established property doesn't not disappear if an investor doesn't buy it. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I'm in my fifties and have just had my first Botox treatment. I cannot express how I feel about it. Or anything else, for that matter.

This is the purest essence of why local institutions are so important. What wonderfully thoughtful staff this place has.

This is a genuine screenshot from the No Kings website, and this is a Very Australian thing to do.

Mark Latham watching from the sidelines with a massive rage on.

Are we at the farce stage yet?

Hard agree.

On on day 4 and I still can't believe how bad this UI update is.

What a despicable bunch of backwards looking sods.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Disgraceful abuse of the legal system to silence and defame critics of Israel. In honour of the Streisand effect, I encourage everyone to listen to this

It’s all happening on x dot com where I do my banking

Work iPhone just updated to liquid glass. I hate it.

I've attended many motor vehicle accidents. Last NOV we got paged to a car which had hit a tree at high speed. Completely on fire, incl the battery pack & internal combustion engine. There is a lot of anti renewables hype out there. Most of it is fear mongering crap. We know how to deal with this.

Time to move.

Good God, the British are not ok.

“Older generation who grew up with The Simpsons”

A sharp thread on the US minister of defence doing his Bourbon Mishima tight-fifteen for the generals.
