One of the weirdest hills too many male cricket fans seem to want to die on is "it's batsman, not batter", despite batter being the term in the official laws of the game since 2021.

Binged the second half of the season on Sun/Mon. Been thinking about it all week and need to rewatch. It's almost as good as season 1, and Tanya Reynolds is brilliant, just brilliant, as Alice. Saying no more, but looking forward to your thoughts as you get through it. 🍿

New chair. But I did not get to sit on it first.

a whole universe of video games and experiences were all over MIGW/PAX this week, and the thing people were talking about more than anything else was this magazine. incredible W for local games media after a hellish few years.

I haven't read it because my copy is in postal limbo but I did get my hands on a copy at PAX to look and feel and it's great. A distinctive layout and art style, lovely paper stock, feels very high quality. Looking forward to sitting down with it one night this week.

And don't get me started on lack of test cricket for the women. I'd love to see Australia v South Africa test match at the MCG. King v Woolvardt is a salivating prospect. But again greed dictates women's tests will always be a rarity.

They did Dub 5 days and had one signing per day and one other article per day. I'm generally encouraging when they do dub stuff, bit of positive feedback etc, but even I told them clearly that if it's that low effort don't bother and just trickle news as it happens. Signing news now please.

The Chocolate War was assigned reading in English class when I was 13. My English teacher was also a school chaplain with dog collar so parts of it were possibly even more uncomfortable than average to discuss in class...

...I first thought of Consider Phlebas, because... yeah and also The Wasp Factory because... um... and really El Bonko was just out to fuck us all up and I loved the man for it. Sadly miss him and the novels he didn't get to write. But this ending. Whew.

Name a book from your teenage years with an ending that still haunts you.

The cover of the original British edition of Use of Weapons by Iain M Banks, depicting a futuristic fighter plane diving towards a river canyon...

We have people who have extracted so much surplus wealth from our biosphere they roam the planet buying real estate to generate more surplus wealth. And somehow the radical position is to suggest they stop killing our biosphere.

Loved it, but my similar take is Freelancer which I played to death despite general derision of its weird planet scaling and oddly 2D thinking for a space game...

It was actually pretty entertaining on the TV. Was a bit worried after the 2 early goals it was going to blow-out but in the end a pretty good result for a very solid invitational side against a world class team.

Did most of ours last night, just need to do the bits we only knew today like "how did we get to work" and "who is visiting" and "how old are you"
