In our house, Weeds ended when Agrestic burnt to the ground at the end of season three. It was a clear (and perfect) end to the story.

I kind of feel the same way about Ted Lasso returning to the USA at the end of season three.

No, it definitely hasn’t taken me eleven years to realise that the Rise Like A Phoenix lighting and the Undo lighting were basically the same but rotated 180°.

I know it’s a complex system but I really can’t see why you can set up an individual YouTube Premium account with a G-Suite account but not a family account.

SBS was showing All The President’s Men last night and it all seems so quaint following the last six weeks.

This quote from Jane Fonda’s acceptance speech today is great.

Have any of you watched a documentary of the great social movements … and asked yourself, ‘Would I have been brave enough to walk across the bridge?’

We don’t have to wonder any more because we are in our documentary moment. This is it!

Heh, just noticed and fixed a 15 year old typo in some code.

I’ve successfully replaced a solenoid on the washing machine, apparently without breaking anything. I’m feeling very masc.

The WordPress test suite has included musical references for a long time (Hamilton, Dear Evan Hansen and Shucked). Yesterday I added Wicked. Coincidentally, they’re all from patches I’ve worked on.

It occurs to me that Cabaret is a significant omission that must be corrected.

I’m pretty impressed that Fisher & Paykel sell washing machine parts retail and even more impressed they still stock inlet solenoids for a machine I bought 25 years ago.

Autocorrect has decided I’m the kind of self important twat to sign off my emails with an all caps PETER WILSON. It’s very helpful.
