He looks comically nothing like henry but he really is superb

Leather pants and big floppy unbuttoned pirate shirts are one of the sluttiest outfits in human history. I’m not being horny, I’m simply reporting the facts. If a fella tries to swashbuckle you in this sort of attire you’re as good as vanquished

Watching the Tudors. The fucking costumes in this show are outrageous. Henry’s fits are superb. All the men wear these foppy renaissance hats with tassles. There are so many capes, so much velvet and fur, so many fine embroidered fabrics. Luxury screams from every garment and people are layering tf

Just had a knock at the door from the federal police. Turns out they’ve been monitoring my social media accounts for many years via the signals directorate and particularly since Oct 7 when ASIO became involved. It was terrifying but I am free to go. They just wanted to say my posts are good

I just don’t understand how someone like this doesn’t collapse under the weight of their own delusions. Just the sheer volume of bullshit you carry with you 24/7

On the contrary, I think he looks surprisingly normal for someone who’s found a way to conceal a kkk hood under his bonce

For what are reportedly a very smart bunch of people why do so many Americans find it so extremely hard to work out why their country is such a careening shit wagon

If nothing else AI is making clear that there are people all around us for whom writing, art, and music are not communion with another mind, but just - wallpaper. Just pleasant things to look at. They think AI is conscious because they have no actual grasp of what it is to encounter another mind.

I am honestly committed to peppering erroneous apostrophes throughout everything I write to distinguish myself from the high pressure torrent of piss and bilge that is surely about to hit us. Get used to it

Do I want to hear what advanced computing models come up with to approximate the languages humans have developed to reflect on our life and experience, relate to each other and form a transcendent and profoundly personal expression our inalienable self? I would rather piss in my own mouth

Do I want advanced computing to build end-to-end B2B fulfilment management solutions? Doesn’t bother me. Sure. Do I want them to answer web searches worded as questions while providing links to verify it’s answers, without me having to trawl help forums and youtubes? Sure, with heavy caveats

I think there’s an intrinsic value to the creative output of actual genuine people who have felt actual genuine people things and have an actual genuine human perspective on them. I feel like it could be a net benefit to music if we remove people who want to hear AI generated music from audiences

I lived it: i heard choosin texas this morning, and here’s my take: even if you haven’t heard the song, it sounds 100% like what you imagine in your head when you see the song title. Saved you three and a half minutes. You are now free to have political opinions

I’m not going to swamp you with hyperbole but I will say that it would be a mistake for the greens to pick SH-Y as their leader

The Tudors is such a weird series. Flawed and not bad and I want to meet whoever thought we needed a jacked Henry VIII and congratulate them

Back when my dad was in a cancer ward he was roommates with a headbanger and when he found out I was into heavy music he gave dad a Kreator hat to give to me, fuck knows what happened to the hat. One of the coolest hats I’ve ever owned. Absolutely insane band, Pleasure to Kill still holds up

Holy shit the racists love saying “social cohesion” all of a sudden. Every time they get a new term it’s like someone gave them permission to be racist again

Blessed to be getting a rate rise, one of those “good problems” whereby if you have this problem, you’re paradoxically on a winner with regards to your housing costs nominally being invested in an asset rather than getting handed over to someone else

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

Probably the funniest aspect of this is that this bloke is only premier because the Vic ALP got some dismal polling and decided to call “shoppie time”

norman emailer @maximumchips.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Probably shouldn’t take the piss about this sort of thing. Cooked. The premier is steamed in his shell. Dan Andrews media team long gone or just treading water by this stage. Dismal comms from any angle

Even for someone like me who is deeply cynical about the moral capacity of our political leadership, I was profoundly shocked by the incapacity of Australia’s leaders to name what was happening for all to see, or to identify it as a bad thing.

I just find it hard to comprehend the mindset of someone that would defend this. Saying this is justified — good, even — is so plainly outrageous, it should be an opinion that exists on the absolute fringe periphery of our society. As it stands, it is the default position of our leaders and media

Controversial opinion perhaps but it’s probably worth drawing some kind of distinction between a sex worker and someone who traffics children for sex parties

Just saw a take that backing into parks is toxic masculinity. Okay why not. Using your indicators is ableist. Giving way to pedestrians is groyper coded

Rage for people who back into parking spaces is so odd. Oh here I am, I drive headlong into parking spaces. Don’t want to hold up traffic! Whoops, let’s try that again. Physics sucks. Yeah I reverse out into traffic, what of it. I nearly hit a nanna while backing out, fuck off bro I can’t see shit.

Definitely pulling out the vintage six point tremolo bridge, filling the screw holes and drilling new holes for a new two-point wilkinson bridge. Will have to rout out a bit around the arm too. Who gives a fuck. Resale value is for cowards. I control the instrument’s fate.

I think I’m going to embrace the spirit of Fremantle in my own life, so I’ve decided that at 3:30 every workday I’m going to declare “mental illness time” where I caterwaul and ululate for fifteen minutes and flick the lights on and off heaps of times and nobody’s allowed to say it’s weird
