Love #Mastodon, if Truth is AM conservative talk radio, #Twitter X is alt-right shock jock radio, #Threads is generic Top40, & #Bluesky 💟 is nostalgic Classic Rock & Pop radio... then Mastodon is community radio. Small, eclectic, non-profit, community-funded, & full of randomness. 💕 Love it!

Giving Blondie’s Plastic Letters (1978) a spin, in honour of the passing of Clem Burke, their drummer.

Today I learned that I can easily cycle into the city centre (Fed Square) in under 13 minutes at 4:29am. Almost zero traffic is blissful.

My mood, all day.

It was great meeting you, @ianstonecomedy.bsky.social. 🎶O what a beautiful morning. 🔴⚪️

So, pickleball. It’s just sexed upped bat tennis like in primary school?

I had a really awesome weekend. It was all killer and no filler. Goodnight!

For any Australian reading this who has done a stint (3+ years) working in the UK. Do you know about this UK state pension thing? https://archive.md/4TxOk Deadline is 5 April, so I’m going to have to hop to it.

This new Horsegirl song is choice. https://youtu.be/mC1v7Y7bIKs

Being around Eucalyptus Regnans makes me happy.

Randomly, just discovered that one of my most favourite bands just achieved Gold record status in Australia. Amazing! Congrats, Alvvays. I hope they return here, soon.

My nice find of the day. I enjoyed Sky Larkin gigs I caught, when I lived in the UK. https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=EoOod5T0Jog

One of the stated roles of the Melbourne train “cops” is “building trust in the safety of train stations and the public transport system through rapport with commuters and the community”, yet they carry handguns. This does not make sense to me.

Friends. I just found out about something called “Black Friday”. Have you heard of it?

Sanjuro (1962). The “sequel” to Yojimbo (1961).

What so good about LAST Conference? Here’s what Adrian Fittolani thinks. youtube.com/shorts/ZokdU...

Seven Samurai / 七人の侍 (1954) 4K. Studied this Kurosawa classic at university. It was great to see this restoration.

Behold. A Japanese band whose name Hitsujibungaku/羊文学 means “Sheep Literature”. Given this fact, why wouldn’t you do a collab with Aardman and cover the Shaun the Sheep song? yewtu.be/watch?v=iC1Z... Many of their other songs are actually quite good.

It would be hard (REALLY HARD!!!!) to make a more Canadian podcast than this. overcast.fm/+BIGs6ZEikU
