Ethical Spending: The Silent Revolution.
Invest in a better world, one purchase at a time. Shop like the world depends on it, because it does.

No time for hatred.

Opinions my own personal views.
We need a clearer definition of #brand.

It’s not a logo.
Not a colour palette.
Not a tagline.

A brand is the meaning people carry in their minds, built through experience, behaviour, consistency and memory.

Published a new breakdown on what a brand really is and why it matters more than ever.
What Is a Brand? (And Why Most People Still Get It Wrong)
If you ask a room full of people, “What is a brand?”, you’ll hear the same answers repeated again and again:

AI/LLM systems aren’t just indexing content; they’re interpreting, recommending and responding. Your brand’s visibility depends on how meaningfully you’re understood by those systems.

We’ve put brand fundamentals back into the centre of that shift

Just caught KNEECAP’s H.O.O.D and it instantly threw me back to RANCID’s Life Won’t Wait era—same fire, new accent. If you vibe on gritty hooks & street-wise lyrics, spin both back-to-back and thank me later. #KNEECAP #RANCID #LifeWontWait #HOOD

My son is learning to sk8 and is doing really well for a kid with disability. We saw he had natural ability and I love how inclusive skaters are from my own time as a crappy skater. #sk8nCr8 #disability #inclusion #haveago

A day with the family. Lucky to have this a hop, skip and a jump away.

I’ve asked the AEC whether a recount is appropriate in Goldstein. They will judge that request on its merits. Thank you again everyone for your support. ZD

@grogsgamut.bsky.social great points in the latest Dollars and Sense podcast. The RBA are definitely dinosaurs, totally out of touch.

This is insane
❗️It is reported that the son of 🇺🇸CIA deputy director Julianne Gallina Gloss, 21-year-old Michael Gloss died in 🇺🇦Ukraine as a 🇷🇺Russian soldier.

He signed a contract with Russia’s MoD. His father, Iraq vet Larry Gloss, develops secure software for U.S. and NATO forces

Australia’s private health funds: charging hundreds monthly, offering vague answers in return.

My recent HCF experience pushed me to research & across the board, the complaints are high.
Too much market concentration?

How do we fix it?

Rediscovered Alex Kidd in Miracle World on Switch and suddenly I’m 8 years old again, losing rock-paper-scissors to a cartoon villain.

Who else had a Sega Master System?

One person. One SUV. One hour to go 10km.

It’s time Sydney rethinks how we move —
not with bigger roads, but with smarter, smaller EVs
and infrastructure built for people, not just cars.

Smarter transport is here.
Are we ready to use it?

Back in my day, we booted up an IBM 386 and waited 10 minutes just to open a file… if it didn’t crash. Now my iPhone 16 Pro edits 4K video, runs AI, and still has time to remind me to drink water. Progress or a personal attack on my childhood?

I often wish for politicians to find a common stance...however, there is a flip side that we should be aware of at times (or at least we should keep the below quote in mind).

"'Bipartisan' usually means that a larger-than-usual deception is being carried out."
