What an incredible and welcome speech from Mark Carney yesterday. I hope that Australia once again some day has a PM with the passion and courage to be honest about old, fracturing alliances. Because Anthony Albanese, sadly, is not that person. #auspol

Well. If the English Parliament gift shop must sell Guido Fawkes memorabilia, they could at least have him quartered and in a gibbet. www.shop.parliament.uk/products/221...

I hope that a huge amount of Yanks are having a think about Claus von Stauffenberg and how he might be relevant to this millennium

I am hearing that on his deathbed Scott Adams received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahada. Even now she looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah. Truly there is no god but Allah, and Mohammad is his prophet!

I've racked my open theremin. Three main voice groups - the theremin itself, the liquid foam groovebox, and four drums being sequenced by the Beast-Tek Amoeba. Apart from an LFO for clocking, all cv will come from the theremin. I've not yet patched it up. :)

It's been a while since I've soldered this many wires, but I have no doubt that the pay-off will far exceed the effort. I'm very excited to get this Synthcube edition of the Steiner Microcon in my rack. #eurorack #synths #synthsky #diy

I was really hoping I wouldn't have to look for my old 'No blood for oil' badges again. Guess I was kidding myself.

I built the Barton guitar input, and decided to personalise the panel. I like my diy modules to all look different. #eurorack #modular #synths #antifa #diy

Is this good news? The part of me that enjoys Hitchcock and Steven King isn't sure that this is good.

I'm a librarian for a primary school.  I love it.  I do try to stretch the older kids.  This year I added 10 adult popular science books to the shelves, incl Feynman's Character of Physical Law.

A gr.6 student borrowed it, then reborrowed it.  She's enthralled, and I literally teared up :) #libsky

Being in Australia, crab rangoon isn't a thing. I've not seen it in a restaurant. I finally got fed up with reading about it and made my own. Airfried, as I don't do deepfrying.

Pretty delicious. :)

Ladies and gentlemen (applause and cheering), well may we say God Save the Queen (pause) because nothing will save the Governor-General (raucous response).

I'm still maintaining my rage, unbelievably.

I've been playing various theremins as a colour instrument for a few years, incl regular Halloween appearances. Last weekend I felt for the first time that I had some mastery. Here's the last 30 sec of me kicking arse on the solo of Pink Pony Club, on an average recording. :)
