  • Turns out telling office types complaining about working from home on LinkedIn they’re self entitled and lucky to be earning an income does not drive engagement. Maybe I should have included a graphic: 👏 if you need to learn your privilege.

  • Would it be a sign of too much time spent alone in lockdown to give your cat the nickname Bird and to subsequently put bird seed on your shopping list to indicate cat food?

    This is, of course, a hypothetical. A hypothetical I am asking for a friend.

  • Victorians for when we hit 80% later this week: https://2kmfromhome.com/15km

  • ABC News has done a live cross to the MCG for two nights running. An empty MCG.

  • Walking around the ‘hood this-morning and I think it’s fair to say everyone if Footscray is excited about the grand final tonight.

  • When can we expect locusts to complete the whole end-of-times vibe?

  • I’m up to date on Ted Lasso, have finished both the US Office and Schitt’s Creek. What else is good and has heart?

  • I have quite mixed feelings about nesting coming to native CSS. A big pro is reduced asset sizes but it can lead to bloated specificity when applied without due consideration of the selectors final form.

  • My career changed for the better working at HM/Altis. I was pulled to country’s most interesting CMS project, and subsequently pulled to my five-year-goal gig. Telling Ryan he’s wrong (often) is appealing, but professional growth has its benefits too.

  • Turns out the most lockdown activity is not the sourdough starter, nor is it the home haircut (yawn, even the Premier has done that). It’s the zoom call between your phone and computer to evaluate said haircut.
