There's something unnervingly familiar about Pools. It's like a nightmare you'd have as a kid. @Tensori_ltd #pools
In what realm of the multiverse does anyone say, "hey I'll tell you what, if you need a parcel delivering, check out this outfit called Australia Post"?
Shit like this must make the anti-Musk peeps rage.
PSA. If you are buying a multimillion dollar house with beautiful views etc. make sure it's got decent on-street parking and a decent driveway. You can sort out your house but you'll never sort out your dogshit on-street parking or dogshit driveway.

Thinking about Australia's prime minister, it must be hard for those pulling the strings to pick "leaders" dumb enough to do their bidding but smart enough not to fuck it up like an idiot and expose them. Bit of a balancing act.

What the hell. America… did something positive that was better for the worker than the CEO? There’s got to be a catch. Something like “America banned non-compete clauses but legalised executing exiting employees so they can’t damage the company”
USA just banned non-compete clauses. Australia should follow suit. Good piece here by Ben Clark crikey.com.au/2024/04/30/ame…

@VicBStard @johnb78 The ones that haven’t died are still there. They churn them out of the same factory that produces the obligatory pissed Jock who rants incoherently at the wall - you know the ones, they used to kick the jukebox when such things existed, then they had to be reprogrammed
I was a huge fan of this series. Not least because some of the filming happened in Somerset and cast members used to drink at the Swan. The pub in the sneeze of a village where I grew up.
Great to see so much love for Robin of Sherwood. Besides the fabulous writing, the pitch-perfect cast, the beautiful photography and the unforgettable Clannad score, what’s sometimes forgotten is how influential it was to the ongoing Robin Hood legend. For one thing… 🧵 1/5

@VicBStard @techAU You mean like every state in the USA having the same speed limit?
I do think that Elon's greatest contribution (X and Tesla and SpaceX aside) is that he uses his platform to put forward an alternative vision of the future. One that isn't a just managed decline, but something new and exciting that we can work towards.
Went on a ghost tour last night. It was essentially 40 people walking glumly around old asbestos and mould ridden shacks, while someone talked about the last person who died in them. Basically a sydney rental inspection experience.
