I know that there is so much going on out there at the moment, but I have to ask- what makes you hopeful for the future?

It’s easy to process allegations against textbook scumbags like Harvey Weinstein. When it is beloved authors and ‘allies’, less so, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

So, how are you all finding Bluesky?
I am mostly enjoying it, just finding it a little lacking in the hard edge breaking news aspect of twitter?
It really needs an Australian Trends section.

Oh my goodness. What is new Microsoft robot detection tests for real? I couldn’t understand the visual one, failed the first audible one and don’t care enough to repeat it. 15 tests, and if you fail one, you get to the end and have to redo them all. I miss captchas

Decided to create some kind of digital note taking for my French language learning. What antidote-hole for what I thought would be such a simple task. What app? How to organise it? Who even knows!

This is such a lovely touch!
The curation of bedside books for guests is an activity that brings me ridiculous amounts of joy. If you stay with me, know that the stack of you-ish books beside your bed is on purpose & that I've been thinking about it for years like some kind of Icelandic Yule cat, minus the part where I eat you.

HERE ONE MOMENT, Liane Moriarty: The premise is irresistible--a woman on a flight from Hobart to Sydney begins predicting the age and manner of death of her fellow passengers. Beautifully written, this propulsive novel has a serious theme. Could be a great Xmas present for that special someone.

It should be a felony to send someone a “your order has shipped” email when the only thing that has happened is a shipping label has been printed.

I’ve had a parcel with Aramex that left Sydney (two hours away) 11 days ago and I still haven’t received it! They aren’t answering phones and now their website is crashing. This is our national courier. Still- I can only imagine how smashed they must be. But maybe under-resourced.

Every now and then it's nice to pick your head up from your book, reacquaint yourself with the world, take a hard pass and immediately go right back to reading. Balance is important.

Call me old fashioned but I still believe that a traditional marriage should be between one person who wraps presents with the the precision of a Vulcan samurai eye surgeon, and another hopeless goblin person who doesn’t even know how scissors work
