This article was originally written for the June 2022 edition of Hemispheric News, delivered as part of the Hemispheric Views podcast member bonus program, One Prime Plus. Another WWDC has come and gone, and Apple have released the M2 and a new MacBook Air to go with it. Apple’s hardware continues to be refined and it’s hard to argue that they are not knocking all their new machines out of the park.

“So it goes” — Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five I met Hannah Beazley in 1999. We married on 19 March 2005. Innumerable highlights (and lowlights), some of which include: Establishment of a business, which together we ran for 5 years, then sold. Multiple overseas trips. Vietnam, Hong Kong, Italy, USA, Croatia, Singapore, Bali. Each of these trips with their own massive collection of memories and experiences. Hannah’s chronic medical challenges, which resulted in near death, as then virtually unknown hypereosinsophilia ravaged her body.
Did some window shopping at the Apple Store yesterday.
Listening to In Rainbows by Radiohead while drinking expensive whisky. What a life. 🎵🌈🥃

I’ve had a music evening. I love these nights. Ranged across Jónsi, R.E.M., Sloan, Dolly Parton, and Toby Martin, to name a few. 🎶
I am enjoying reading The Daily Stoic each morning as a devotional. Today, this resonated.
My nephew Alex Canion doing media on ABC News. His band Voyager are going to be playing Eurovision in a couple of months!
Perth today feels as though it’s the end of summer and perhaps an early end to Bunuru season. It wasn’t warm enough to swim today. It’s 7:25pm and it’s dark outside. Perth moves closer towards Djeran.

Parenting a son with autism is hard. The thunderstorms of rage pass, but lightning is fired from the maelstrom in the moment.
My reward for mowing the lawn.
Bed Update 🛏️: I appreciate all the thoughts and suggestions. I went with the expensive, local-manufactured option. Supporting Western Australian small business! Also hopefully getting a better product as a result.

Here is a screenshot of the edit for Hemispheric Views episode 078. Six audio tracks in play. Lots of edits and adjustments. Ferrite by WoojiJuice makes this possible, combined with a couple of years of editing experience and know-how I have built up. I’m proud that I have the skills to do this. Not something that generally goes on my curriculum vitae, but maybe it should?
In Andrew’s exciting world today, he does online shopping for bed frames. Does he buy the cheap one? Does he take the risk of entering the second-hand market? Or does he say, “stuff it”, and buy the expensive locally-manufactured option? Opinions welcomed. 🛏️
The @hemisphericviews Discord server is my happy place. I love the wonderful community that has formed there.
