Was a bit too effusive hailing the bus and I might have seig heiled the bus. It's just getting in everywhere, isn't it?

Congratulations to @trnapper.bsky.social on winning the Best Novella at the Australian Ditmar Awards this weekend for GHOST OF THE NEON GOD! 🖤

There are three temperatures for coffee: hot, hosptial hot (scalding), and roadside diner hot (surface of Mercury).

Absolute joy today to wax lyrical about podcasts with @fearofemeralds.bsky.social , @adamrichard.com.au , Bart Meehan and A.D Ellicott at #conflux19. Would have liked to do four more hours.

This show has been stupid for awhile now, but those two characters should never have resolved their sexual tension.

I did not know I needed disco gospel in my life, but Mariah Carey and The Clark Sisters have convinced me otherwise.

I'm obsessed with KRANK Berlin on Apple TV+

They steam cleaned the hallway carpets in our building and now they smell like a eucalyptus dog.

Unstressesary: when someone procrastinates so much that their problem becomes your problem.

Oh hey! Battle Action volume three is out today! Featuring a great Kids Rule OK story by Brian K Vaughan and ME! 2000ad.com/news/battle-...

The first deadline for the year is fast approaching - just five days left to access early entry fee pricing for long form works, including novels, graphic novels, anthologies and collections. #AurealisAwards aurealisawards.org/2025/09/25/e...

#TheoryPodcast 1200 - which is meant to be about Doctor Who and ends up being anything but (as per usual). https://play.headliner.app/episode/29220372 (video made with https://www.headliner.app)

Edgelord comedians sure have been quiet about free speech suddenly.

If you have to go to the Qantas domestic terminal in Sydney, I can recommend the coffee at Krispy Kreme. Mainly because it's under $8. The staff being happy and giggly is also a bonus.

It's a really great film. A little too horror movie gruesome at times, but that doesn't take anything away from the fine performances and chilling conceit at the centre of the movie.

My personality today is Mariah Carey shouting "For the nostalgia."

I love it when they announce we're boarding via the rear stairs, because I always book myself in the back row, or Business Class of the Bum End, as I like to call it. The flight attendants always pretend to be amused by me.

Nice post you got there, it'd be a shame if I deliberately missed your point so I could be tedious about it

Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.

Gotta worry when your adaptation has strayed so far that a connection to the source material is a secret.

Every show would be so much better with Rufus Sewell.

Worth remembering that Walt Disney named names during the McCarthy era.

There needs to be some sort of breakfast trade practices commission, because I want to report this cafe that is selling eggless French Toast. It's just hot brioche.

Anyway, I’m glad to return us all to the Felcity’s Hair Discourse of 1999.

From my personal experience of wegovy (aka Aldi Ozempic) you can simulate the effects with dysentery or a bout of gastro that goes for a month.

Why didn't anyone tell me to watch The Diplomat? Is it because I'd be obsessed with Keri Russell's hair? It's amazing. The show. The hair needs a spin-off, because I don't know what is going on with it, and it needs an origin story.

Made the mistake of getting low fat dip. It should say 'real sloppy' on the lid. 'May not adhere to carrot.'

Am loving @adrianedmondson.bsky.social in Alien Earth. I like to remind people we worked together once, because reflected glory is all I have.

Had a wonderful time at Pride Of Our Footscray for the Missed Foundation benefit. Amazingly, mamma's still got it. Even did some new gear about pronouns (just what people need from a cis white man).

Let's see you at 21ish

Let's see you at 21 (ish)

I used to gig about six nights a week, now it's once a year, if that. Come and see me be spectacularly hilarious or hilariously unfunny! Don't worry, there are other acts on, like Bev Killick and Tina Del Twiste, who are guaranteed to be good. Sat in Footscray. events.humanitix.com/variety-nigh...

I'm so glad I stopped following AFL because hearing a deliberate use of homophobic language being labelled as a 'mistake' is making my blood boil. Racism. Misogyny. This behaviour is systemic to the entire sport. Shut it down.

I miss John Clarke often, but never moreso than when I read a statement like the one from Australia Post today that includes the phrase "temporary partial suspension." I can just imagine him bamboozling Brian with the many and varied ways this could be interpreted.

Another day another hospital waiting room. This time, I got to see Shirvo from Sunrise filling his gob with a fat kebab.

I wish the algorithm knew that I only click on Rugby League articles if there is a hot man in the photo. I don't want all these other stories it's decided to send me.

I'm at the hospital at 1am and Al from Tool Time is on the TV trying to sell me some hose bullshit.

I'm on the dry toast and banana diet. Don't love it.

Sometimes I hate my brain. "Why is that cream couch so clean if he puts his feet on it with his shoes on?" I'm really loving Dept Q, regardless.

It’s wild that the most unrealistic part of Terminator 2 is now the idea of a tech founder being told their creation will enslave humanity and they decide to destroy their product & company.

Wow! We just hit 10K on the Kickstarter! Thank you, backers! www.kickstarter.com/projects/403...

Texting with my sister about The Gilded Age finale last night.

Gilded Age finale. Superb. No notes.

The only headwear more fascinating than that perched on top of Mrs. Russell in this episode is Oscar's combforward.

Someone needs to update the algorithms on photo memories notifications. 'Remember 9 years ago' with photos of grown-arse dogs are likely not going to land as intended.

Had a candlelight vigil for my terminally ill friend And Just Like That last night. I could barely recognise her. Angry when she should be laughing, laughing at nothing. I'll miss her when she's gone, but she hasn't been well, bless her.
