Just saw another story on the news about low vaccination rates, using closeup vision of someone being injected. Don't they realise that contributes to low vaccination rates?

Hey thanks iPhone dictation for creating an unintentionally hilarious band name

That's an ambiguous sign

Espresso talk: Just realised I can pressure profile like a lever machine on my inexpensive Lelit single boiler, including low pressure pre infusion and ramp down towards the end of the shot, by opening and closing the steam wand valve during extraction. This is a game changer for a coffee nerd.

Don't think I've ever had a tradie who didn't blame the problem on the previous tradie. Including the plumber yesterday who destroyed my tap spouts with his wrench, blamed the previous plumber, and asked for a 5 star review.

Ooh, how to catch up on my podcasts

My last two iPhones have managed to get cracked or shattered back glass despite being in an Apple case. I'd be happy if there was an option with no glass back knowing I never do wireless charging.

Unexpected benefit of (fill in) breakfast radio

Once we waited over an hour for bar food which arrived cold which the waiter acknowledged but still wanted a 5 star review.

Weird suburb names in Adelaide

No wonder people are happy in Denmark

The expression, "I thought to myself" is a weird one. Are there ventriloquist thinkers?

I've always thought the Fermi Paradox isn't a paradox at all. There will be or have been many civilisations other than ours, but given the almost infinitesimal nature of space and time it's almost infinitesimally unlikely their existence, especially nearby, will coincide with ours
