Finished the show One Day and feel sad. It’s an impactful series. 📺
I’m watching the 46th season of Survivor. That is crazy! 📺
Refreshed my site’s Bookshelf page and simplified my navigation bar.
One of those days where I wake up at 4:15am. An hour later now and I feel tired but know I’m not going back to sleep. Here we go then. Bring it on, Monday.
The Lost Daughter, 2021 - ★★½
Children really can be that annoying.
The Sad State of Fibre Internet in Australia
A couple of days ago I got fibre to the home installed (finally). Australia’s broadband rollout is a decades-long case study in political fuckery. Previously I was on “Fibre to the Node” which used fibre to the end of the street, then copper from that street node to my home. Now I have fibre all the way to my home, which is great, but the plans offered are still depressing.
Proud of my Podcast Productions
Several years ago I became interested in creating podcasts. As an early adopter, I’d listened to them for years. I decided I finally wanted to try the creation side of the equation. I’m proud of what I’ve achieved since that decision. Yesterday, two podcasts of mine were released on the same day. They show two different aspects of my personality and interests. I am incredibly proud of these latest episodes, but also the incredible run of consistent podcast creation I have achieved over the past few years.
Zoolander, 2001 - ★★★★
I watch this film now and struggle to identify the cameos. Not all careers kick on, I suppose.
Bob Marley: One Love, 2024 - ★★★½
I was unaware of the Bob Marley story and this clued me in well. Actors of course were more attractive than the actual people.
Windfall, 2022 - ★★★
A well-acted kooky thriller.
I’m binge watching S4 of For All Mankind. I didn’t have “labour dispute and unionisation on my bingo card of topics. Was this show written around the time of the Hollywood Writers’ Strike? 📺
A GP appointment time is more of a general indicator that they will see you sometime in the hour following that prescribed slot.
It’s great to see Jon Stewart back home on The Daily Show. Old Presidential candidates. What could go wrong?
Autism Parent Night: Making checklists to assist kids with morning, afternoon and evening routines, and pack lists. Made it all look pretty with OmniOutliner. ☑️
If the United States population somehow finds it in themselves to re-elect deadbeat, shyster, and Russian-compromised Trump, we are all fucked. Gift link to a relevant New York Times article.
Wonka, 2023 - ★★★
I wanted to like it more, but it was trying too hard.
After resisting all the Bluesky invitation codes; I’ve signed up with the masses.
Lean Can Be Applied Anywhere
Deploying small, incremental improvements. Prototyping an improved workflow using lean, visual control and 5S principles. Observation will determine what improvements and changes to next make.
I need a side hustle that generates a reasonable amount of cash. Why are my skills so esoteric?!
I spent the money. This is a much more pleasant reading experience. 📚
