10 hours on the road, and every car driver today seemed determined to be as selfish and pig ignorant as humanly possible.

I have long hair and a beard, I might be Jesus. In fact I think I am. And at that point I can confidently say I've never met this bloke, I think he's talking shit.

The good old Orient. Remember seeing The Widdershins there one night. Good band.

Yeah, not my taste but they could play.

Maybe they could go right back to their roots. Led Zepplin and Neil Young covers at the Sherwood Aussie rules club. That was the last time I sat and watched them. Good musicians.

New Zealand's greatest musical export, Chris Knox, of such bands as The Tall Dwarves and The John Paul Sartre Experience takes on ABBA. youtu.be/GzbkQYQQXwc?...

It's almost like polling is the red headed bastard step child of statistics. Where's Antony Green when you need him?

Devo always did awesome covers. Satisfaction, Secret Agent Man, Working In a Coal Mine.

Had this little guy sitting on the back of my truck today. Pretty sure it's a moth of some kind, but don't think I have ever seen these colours before.

A photo of a moth with its wings folded. Its base colour is white, but it is covered in coloured flecks of ref, yellow and green.

Although The Meters do a pretty good version of it too. Hard to top Glen Campbell though. youtu.be/QutLsCCY2yw?...

If we're talking "And the Ass Saw the Angel," I started reading it about 15 or 16 years ago. I still haven't finished it.

It's 3pm and I have just arrived at my next delivery. I'm not due here until 5pm, so now it's at least an hour and a half until we can get in and start unloading. New fixtures for a shop and we have to wait until close of business.

That's a score. I'd be making gallons of stew. The teenagers would hate me. Either that or we're living on beef korma for the next 6 months.

That one in the photo looks a bit overdone.

Oh but is it a barm or a bap you're having your potato scallop/potato cake/potato fritter on?

Degenerate artist @johnalees.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Probably. But late at night and just glad to get home. It's the whole getting a response to a complaint. The last time I complained about a taxi driver being a dick I didn't even get an acknowledgement.

Degenerate artist @johnalees.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Not convinced a real taxi is much better. The last one we got home was awful. Driver was speeding and tailgating other cars. It was bad enough we had to have words with him.

Or save them up for the next time that Kellie Jean terf lady decides to spread her hate in this country again. This time she gets exploding soup.

The frustrating part is that portable dialysis machines exist. Was listening to an interview with a guy who used one and was able to go camping in places like Kakadu because of it.

Fairy stories hand picked by the Yahweh cult to reinforce their political narrative and their origin story some 2500 years ago that we are still somehow suffering for.

Spent yesterday doing as close to nothing as it was possible to do. Very sore from doing tiling on Sunday. Starting to feel my age.

Self driving is fine if all the other cars are self driving and they're all talking to each other and there's no random human variables in the equation. So it will never work in real life.

They had him on nearly an ounce a day and they upped it to over a kilo. Nearly 3 pounds. Not sure it's possible to smoke that much. You could sell it for a bit though.

I should have a night where I only listen to music made by someone primarily known as an actor.

Basically worked a 7 day week this week. So I thought fuck it and have a gummy and a few drinks. I may be slightly out of practise. Haven't indulged in either for several months. I may get messy.

Got this far. That's the easy bit of the floor that's going under the bath. On to the shower recess next, which will involve a few tricky cuts to get the right fall down to the waste. For now though, it's time for smoko. My ears are ringing from the noise of the grinder I use to cut tiles.

As someone who worked for 5 years or so as a cab driver, I loved this movie, and I wish I could find a good subtitled copy. The bit with Roberto Begnini trying to receive confession from the priest in his taxi was bloody hilarious.

About 4.55 liters, unless it's a US gallon, in which case it's 3.88. But yes, I occasionally prefer anachronistic measures.

How I'm spending my long weekend. Trying to get this fucking tiling done.

Mt bathroom showing freshly laid tiles, along with all the tools, glue, bin, and the radio to keep me sane while I finish this fucking tiling.

Big day of tiling coming up so it's time for a substantial breakfast. Egg, bacon, a bit of chorizo and toast, all washed down with coffee.

Bacon and chorizo frying in the pan while the egg awaits its turn.
