I am a cringe lord from Melbourne, Australia. All my internet references and long outdated jokes are from the 2010s. If you're reading this, there's 50% chance you're salty about something I said and clicked on my profile. For the other 50%, welcome! ^_^

Very disappointed by Freeplay's statement. What WAS the reason I was removed as a sponsor then, Freeplay? What was the reason your speakers gave?

The response from @free-play.bsky.social is a total non-answer and hasn't directly address why they accused Jewish-Australian developer of being a "Zionist" despite no evidence to support such a claim. I am not being funny when I say this. This is like the mindset that lead to Bondi Massacre.

Had a wonderful day at Port Arthur, a must visit site! I also really appreciated they stayed on topic and focus whole time, some museums can get sidetracked with other things but that's not the case here.

On Saturday as a belated birthday thing, friends and I saw the 70mm projection of The Oddessy at the Sun Theatre in Yarraville. Before it started the projectionist himself did a little introduction. I was able to answer his quiz question and I won this branded film strip!

I remember when computers and the internet were considered to be something nerds did. How nice it was, so open and friendly. Then finally, the normies realised that it might be useful. Spam, Sport and Advertising soon flooded OUR spaces.

I'm absolutely devastated for colleagues at Jodrell Bank who found out this morning that funding for the UK's e-MERLIN radio telescope array will be terminated. This is a short-sighted move, to save a tiny fraction of the overall UK science budget. #SaveJodrellBank 🔭🧪 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

“What will the Lovell Telescope discover/enable 20 yrs from now? I can’t tell you, and that’s the point. It will either be something extraordinary that none of us can yet predict, or we will defund it and leave Cheshire with a rusting monument to unfulfilled potential and discoveries never made.” 🔭🧪

I love B-class trams with all my heart and I don't want to see them go! The replacement G's are just so ugly. But having just helped a bloke get his pram on a B just now, they are quite a nightmare from an accessibility perspective and G's will be a huge improvement in that way.

Phew! Almost missed my tram. Luckily for me the literal little old lady who lives end my street was getting off, this held the tram long enough for me to reach and hop on!

Currently riding into city on an express service from Essendon to North Melbourne and it's bloody marvellous. Wish we had some more expresses on Craigieburn.

Me on the Telstra outage today. I have covered so many in my time as a reporter and it's always hunting to figure out which exact single point of failure is responsible this time. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

theguardian.comThe Telstra outage is a stark reminder of the widespread effects of single system failuresThe network disruption – which brought trains, traffic lights and Eftpos payments to a halt – raises questions about the resilience of services

The irony isn't lost on me that the two woman who wrote such disgusting things on an RSL at Anzac Day now are dealing with the consequences of their actions by having disgusting things slugged at them. What is it that people say again, accountability culture? :P www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06...

Worst part of being on call is for me feeling a looming sense of endless anticipation for a call that might not come, and will when you least expect it. Which can be annoying when eating out.

People are already peddling ivermectin for Hantavirus. The same people had never heard of Hantavirus 3 days ago. We live in the dumbest possible timeline.
