Attended Sydney Writers’ Fest yesterday. I’m going back on Saturday. If there’s any writers I know who will be in attendance, let’s grab a coffee.

Prompt slop is what happens when the untalented use tools they don’t understand to generate work they don’t own.

Thanks, yeah, my pride (or what was left of it) was the only thing that got hurt. Ah crap, I love when family captures us at our worst moments. Especially when there’s footage of it. Hope you’re all good.

Looking forward to saying “fuck off” to one of the worst years of my life. Multiple deaths in the family, career stagnation and our dog’s major surgery. 2025 has to be better right?

Shit, that really sucks. Hope you’re doing ok. I ate concrete last week after stacking it on the curb while walking my dog. Had a few spectators which also made the event extra special!

I love how all these tech bros think AI is going to kill creative jobs. What a bunch of losers.

Day 4 of Bailey’s bladder surgery recovery. Had to create a makeshift bedroom in the loungeroom as he’s been finding too hot in the bedroom. My wife is happy she has the bed to herself (no snore heads).

Muggy AF 🥵 in Sydney right now. If you take out all the stuff in your fridge is it safe to live in it? Just asking for a friend.

Needed a “pick me up” and grabbed this from my local Asian grocery. I don’t know what’s in it but I felt like I did the world’s longest line of white powder while being zapped by a car battery. Five stars! 🌟

AI was supposed to do all the boring math, programming and spreadsheet shit no one wanted to do. Not replace artists by stealing their work. I’m all for this. Time to pay up fuck-o’s

Senators say generative AI represents 'unprecedented theft' and must be forced to pay creators for their work

Eight years ago my wife was given a death sentence. Her oncologist had told me to get her affairs in order. Today she is 7 weeks pregnant. Nothing is ever certain but just shows a lot can change in under a decade.

Sad that so many of our languages are endangered, including Wiradjuri. Now they want to strike Aboriginal history from the curriculum in schools. They want our history to be colonial history. That will never happen.

Elon now wants to buy LinkedIn just to shut it down because he hates it. I think he’s reached level 10,000 narcissism. So this is why he bought Twitter? (Never X). Makes sense now. I wonder what he’ll f$$k up next??
