Email search just helped me for the first time ever.

I can’t believe she was the secret Santa.

Trod on a plug. Not a great start.

That time of year when we all increase the number at the end of our passwords.

I don’t get using AI for creative tasks. Thats the fun bit.

We have four hackathons a year at Grafana Labs where everyone can work on whatever they think is important. It’s where a lot of the innovation comes from. As well as some delightful projects like this.

I haven’t seen community opinion drive what we do as much as it does at Grafana Labs. Tell us what actually works (and what doesn’t) in your observability stack. It’s anonymous so be brutal :) 👉 grafana.com/observabilit...

Oh Trump questions democracy alright.

It’s too early for all the Wrapped stuff imo. What if I listen to The Outhere Brothers solid for the rest of December?

I’m not saying @watsoncomedian.bsky.social doesn’t know how to take screenshots, but I’m pretty sure I shouldn’t see his half-naked reflection.

Not another Christmas tree shooting.

If everything is top priority, then you’d better get on with some shit.

The Beatles Anthology 4 is out.

I've mentioned this quietly, but - since the summer my hobby has been making this ambitious murder mystery podcast. A story. Narrated by me, with a mouthwatering cast. Partly interactive. Trailer is coming tomorrow but if you like the sound of this, please follow @murderbastard.bsky.social.

You will potentially enjoy this. Trailer by @matryer.bsky.social.

In My Life (Take 1) is now available to listen to.

elon musk: people in the uk live like hobbits. um let’s look at you for a second bro

Might put the clock back again tonight. Take the extra hour in bed again. Make it a regular thing. See what happens.

Fesshole: whenever my family recommend a TV show or film to me, I avoid it knowing it won’t be for me. We haven’t really seen eye to eye since The Bill.

I’ve just seen a new song appear on Beatles Anthology 4.

I like songs that are relatable. Like this one. spotify.link/YbvLlPftJXb

Ohh some Beatles Anthology 4 tracks have dropped.

Figured out why it got so cold out.

Just measured this and it's exactly twelve inches!

I have two tickets for Aunty Donna at the Hammersmith Apollo tonight if anyone’s interested? Can’t make it due to probably Covid.

Every time I read about crypto, I cry, and then turn over.

Brian Conley was fantastic tonight as Doc in Back to the Future at the Adelphi Theatre.

Counterpoint: it is quite useful having phrases that mean things.

I’m like this but for toast.

Might binge Sharky and George.

Can you install apps on them?

I can’t explain it but there’s a bit near where I live that always smells like a tuna melt.

Oh yeah

Typical Android user.

Oh I thought it was Mick Jogger because he always wears joggers. But it turns out he wears jaggers.

How much storage do you physically own?

My mate’s mate accidentally took my USB- C cable and I received this today.

I can’t wait for Anthology 4. #hashtag #beatles

Every time someone writes the word ‘discussed’ I always assume they’re talking about the disc throwing sport. That’s wrong a good 99% of the time.

You can do this with any computer screen and believe me, I have.

The Guardian doing Tinder’s job again.

The album that I made with Mark Watson (Mock the Week, Taskmaster, books and that) is out now. Basically he text me some words and then I did loads of work to make this happen and paid a man £500 to make it loud. So please listen. music.apple.com/gb/album/dre... open.spotify.com/album/0XjLb3...

Hello! In case you sent something for this, in July: there were lots of submissions, more than I imagined, and the project - like so many of my projects - is a bigger undertaking than I thought. With the expertise of @matryer.bsky.social, however, it is slowly coming together.

fesshole: something happened so I imagined that I had the balls/ovaries to do it. I then pretended I did and sent that to fesshole and got the same endorphins without the risk.
