I hate that when you set an alarm on the iPhone it stays there in case you ever need it again. I needed an alarm at 3:57am one time, I don’t intend to make a habit of it.

I don’t remember where I heard that you should keep your garlic powder and onion powder in the fridge and then it won’t harden, but folks, it’s life changing.

When did you last make the effort to tell someone that they were cruising for a bruising?

Yeah, I haven't discovered new music on the radio in 30 years. The way I find new music is by enjoying someone's funny videos on Instagram and then realising they're a musician, as god intended.

Hi, I'm looking to speak to people who have left games journalism in the last few years and have gone onto do something else. DMs are open, or luke@aftermath.site, thanks!

I cannot tell you how much it delights me that the only reason my 19-year-old knows who Michael Bolton is from watching Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping and Teen Titans Go! to the Movies.

Saw that the VMAs are on and wondered if they were still relevant, and then read that Madonna is opening and Snoop Dogg is hosting, which I guess answers that question.

It’s life changing. I’ve also long been an advocate of packing very comfortable pants and a change of underwear on long flights. Put the comfy pants on when you board and then change both and wash your face and brush your teeth just before landing. Gets you 70% there on being a whole new person.

Rewatching the Double Take movie Hercules Returns on Prime and I am not sure if the subtitles are AI-generated but they really struggle with 1990s Australian vernacular. Thus a chant of “she wants to root him” becomes “she wants the red imp”.

This was my thing. Even assuming that he is an unsupportive partner…is this behaviour so egregious that I, a person in Australia, need to know about it? Like I’m all for calling out bad behaviour but how loudly should it be amplified?

There should be a toggle on music streaming services that is “I don’t ever want to hear a radio-friendly edit of a song”.

I take out a note with the heading “three wishes in case I meet a genie”, cross out “live financially comfortable” and add “watch Abdul el Sayed hand Bill Maher his arse”.

Bands I do not like as much as my music algorithm seems to think I do: REM, Wolfmother, Skrillex. To be clear, I think they're fine. I would just never proactively put them on, and yet, they pop up on every other playlist.

This is an under appreciated example of enshittification I tend not to bother watching anything other than certain greyhounds’ accounts that I am already familiar with because trust is at an all time low.

I am inordinately irritated that a character in the book I'm reading goes for a doctor role at a secure psychiatric facility and is offered the position on the spot. On-the-spot offers in this scenario would be remarkably unusual at best. Tell me you have a similar nitpick.

I used to commission TV reviews, I started suspect one person wasn't watching the shows when their documentary review talked a lot about tigers and nothing about Tamil Tigers, which was the actual topic.

I just wrote Duper Fund by mistake, and now I am picturing a superannuation fund built on Zooper Doopers. Make sure you're not going to be stuck with only bubblegum flavour in retirement.

Very disappointed in these comments. I came here for some Dennis Miller style similes “it’s like making a documentary about Calvin Coolidge pet racing Rebecca during the Reichstag fire”.

I would very much enjoy it if @josholson.bsky.social went on @oldmanweldon.bsky.social 's I Hate Bill Maher podcast. I'd say I'd tell several friends to listen, but sadly my Maher hatred is mine to carry alone.

The graphic design of the Defund the ABC one is more egregious than its message.

Imagine the shittiest 1990s CorelDRAW designed t-shirt saying Defund the ABC and you pretty much have it

In Predator, Anna explains that the Predator comes in years that it is really hot. So another thing we’re gonna have to worry about with climate change is more Predators.
