Archives: Notes

  • I feel so bad for Antony Green suffering an IT failure on his final federal election. I’d love to be a fly on the wall at the ABC’s post election retro.

  • Election night is super weird because it’s a weird twilight zone in which some politicians are moderately honest for hours on end.

  • I had queue management opinions (yes multiple) at the voting shop. I kept them to myself because the staff Do Not Need That Kind of Shit.

  • Election coverage drinking game:

    • take a drink every time someone compliments Antony Green
    • two drinks if the person is well known to be a massive c—
    • three drinks if the person does so on a non-ABC broadcast
    • four drinks if the person is hosting a non-ABC broadcast
  • Looking up where to vote and it turns out our house is the boundary of the electorate.

  • I want in on this activity.

  • I think journos are failing to cover the most important issue of the election: why do Albanese and Dutton both wear such terrible glasses.

    They’re the wrong shape for their heads.

  • I’m just waiting to find out that they stole the car, the handbag and the television in the anti-piracy ad. I give it days, not weeks.

  • Apparently there are good times and bad times to launch a new feature. I wonder where about 11:30am on a Saturday falls on the scale.

  • I’ve added a page to my website to show a history of a person’s contributions to WordPress Core and the props they received in each release.
