I’ve seen some bonkers diets in my time, but kindly, what the heck?

I am making a playlist of awesome for my last week at work. Joyful, sweary songs about being alive despite everything, that you can’t normally sing out loud at the office, but hey, you are leaving! What else should I add? - Still Alive, The Spook School. music.apple.com/au/album/sti...

Okay so @defector.com has had an odd glitch since the site redesign a couple of weeks back where the wrong photo and headline are often put together on the main page and I was going to ask them about fixing it but this just happened and as far as I'm concerned they have to leave it as is.
Screenshot for a Defector podcast episode with the headline "Consider the Emotional Lives of Scallops" only the accompanying photo is a white gormless stubbled red-headed UK singer of recent notoriety giving a flat smile to the camera while wearing a washed out peach top as beige as he is against a flat background. So, actually, probably a scallop anyway.

I wonder how many illegal immigrants people think there are in Australia? The fever dreams of One Nation just don’t stack up.

Thinking about seeing something at the Melbourne Fringe but when I looked up where it was it was Ballarat which is a bit *too* fringe of Melbourne.

Having misphonia and a small son who likes eating cheese really noisily into your ear at bedtime is quite a lot to deal with.

This grotesque headline is from the Telegraph. 3,000 people in Britain have been killed in heatwaves this year so far. 20,000 in Europe. Even if Britain did get to “embrace Mediterranean life”, what about the actual Mediterranean, what do they get to embrace? What about India?

Hey @artsemergency.bsky.social has their call open for mentors again! You get paired with a young person approx. 16-17 and talk to them once a month, it's great and not very much work at all and the organisation is ALWAYS short of mentors who work in games

Sorry, just two hours ago was telling colleagues how Total Eclipse was my karaoke song and then googled her to see how Bonnie was going. I must stop googling to see if people are still alive.

As in 1066 England will prevail against the Norwegians before tragically losing to the French a couple of weeks later.

talking about the dire English national anthem situation elsewhere and it's just occurred to me: can we not just cut out the middleman and make it World in Motion?

Someone made the good point that the hospitality workers of Australia are the true MVPs - last night was EOFY Friday (did that twice at the Pelt Trader) and they went right into a 3am football match. Heroes one and all.

The real winner here is Eddie, the office building manager at work. He’s Egyptian Australian and insisted he was going to support both teams this morning. Go Eddie.
