The day has finally come where I can no longer use blue bird logo Twitter. I’m being forced to update if I wish to continue.
I have remained one of a handful of users to not turn it into X for more than a year. Bit by bit they stripped functionality… but after the takedown last week. Gone.

This morning Triple J announced the passing of David Lynch by referring to him simply as ‘the co-creator of Twin Peaks’ and wow…. just… wow. That’s the best they could come up with? Seriously?

What I’ve come to realise after 10+ years on Twitter and 6 months on Bluesky - they’re good platforms to follow and interact with your favourite artists. But if you actually want interaction for dumb stuff (that I mostly put out), Threads is where it’s at. More followers more interaction.

Call me crazy, call me old fashioned… but my first instinct, after being shot at by a random shooter whose current whereabouts and status are unknown, would not be to shake my fist in the air like I’m at a well-orchestrated rock concert.

Dear office colleague. As a bitter, disgruntled bald man, stop complaining to me about your ‘hat hair’. I would give anything for ‘hat hair’.
Even ‘bed hair’ would be sweet. It’s like complaining to a man with no legs how sore your feet are. I don’t wanna hear it!

Is there an extended version of Groundhog Day where Phil really spoils the homeless man for a day? Because getting him two bowls of soup before a trip to the hospital seems like it’s the best it gets and well… that ain’t right.
