Young at heart, old at knee.

The object of this year's expedition is to see if we can find any trace of last year's expedition.

Is there any such thing as a sober Tour de France #TdF spectator? They all look 9/10ths sauced to me ...

Ok, so protestors are stopping people from ... riding bicycles. Got it. Just Stop Lycra is it?

Absolute muggles.

So sad to read of the passing of actor Andre Braugher. Really loved him as Captain Holt in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, but also as the lead in Last Resort.

RIP Captain.

The video highlights guy (or gal) is not going to be happy, but this bowling effort from #Australia from the 11th over onwards has been one, as they say, for the ages.

Only 3 overs from 32 (so far) have gone for more than 6 runs. Completely throttled the dangerous #India batting attack. Wonderfully disciplined line and length under extreme pressure.

Oh my fellow #devs, do NOT use #ChatGPT to write your job app cover letters. I mean, we all know cover letters suck, but a truly sucky solution to a sucky problem does not actually solve the problem.

On the other hand, you are making my first pass filtering task easier.

Is "I can't resist buying more books even though I'm in the middle of three interesting ones at once and have a dangerously top-heavy shelf of still-to-be-reads" a diagnosed medical condition? Is there a German word for it?

All those #AFL footy pundits who said West Coast were the worst team they'd ever seen must be feeling a bit silly right now.

Thoughts and prayers with the #NFL video editor who had to put together a highlights package for the #Raiders #Vikings game.

The #Ashes 3rd Test finished a day early and today is a rest day on the Tour de France #tdf

Who's in charge around here? I want to complain to the manager ...

I've been bingeing #scifi series on Apple TV, and now in my head I'm working through a script for a #Severance -> #Silo tie-in series.

Well #AFL footy #tipping can just go get in the bin today.

Time slows down when you approach the speed of light and when #Hawthorn are holding on to a slim lead.

(neither of which are frequent occurrences, tbf)

Providing computer phone support to my wonderful Mum, so missed the #49ers touchdown.

Bugger, but still , can't bump Mum off the phone :)

Clothes I haven't worn in years I should really throw ou- NO! Not the t-shirt from my Botswana safari of 2011. I love that shirt!

It was 42C here in today, still about 33C while I was having dinner, and I still put extra-hot sauce on my food.

@GlenDownton@mastodon.au avatar

I tend to keep a bit of an eye on the international #travel and #tourism industry, and my Sherlockian sleuthing has lead me to the inescapable conclusion that the country currently throwing the big bucks at their tourism industry is ... #Norway.

If you don't mind a bit of crispness in the air, there are probably a few really good deals going about now.

In the wake of the defamantion judgement against #BRS, if he gets referred to the #AFP for prosecution for war crimes, how long until we find out he's actually been a consultant to them for the last 5 years?
