If you consider's Godzilla's grumpiness, preference for solitude, propensity to destroy anything that annoys him, and also seemingly multiple lives... ... yeah ... ... cat. #Godzilla

Does anyone have any suggestions about driving from Canberra to Parramatta for a conference that starts at 9:30 AM? (In a couple of weeks time) I have visions of me being stuck in unfamiliar streets, looking for parking locations, all the while staring at my heart-rate monitor thinking... "Oh no! If my BPM crosses the threshold... the 'other guy' is gonna come out!!!" #Parramatta

I’m watching the 39th film in a series. Luckily I’ve seen the previous 38 films, so I’ll know what’s going on. #Godzilla

Pippin Cat is running around chirping. I think he's still mad at some birds outside the window that disrespected him this arvo.

Sunday has a top of 16 C and a minimum of 1 C. Canberra does not care about your Spring expectations.

The most confounding thing I've ever seen put on a pizza was unpitted olives. A restaurant in Civic (Canberra) used to serve it that way. To this day, I still don't understand how it's meant to be consumed.

I put on Godzilla Minus One while I potter around and do things. I kinda forgot that a good part of this movie is punching the audience right in the gut. (It turns out ok) (... or does it?!?!) #Godzilla

Truly, this has been the most dramatic popular vote since Taylor Swift was banned from Triple J's Hottest 100 songs of 2014. #USPol #Hottest100 #JJJ #TripleJ #Tay4Hottest100 #NeverForget

If you have 3 minutes spare, this video of Patrick Stewart talking about meeting Sting on the set of Dune is quite funny. https://youtu.be/Fb_LO7gJo-4 #PatrickStewart #Dune

I have committed to waking up at 5:00 AM every morning. One way of understanding this is that I am planning on early exercise at 5:00 AM every morning. Another, perhaps more compelling, way of understanding this is that I have shifted the cat feed times so he is fed at 5:00 AM every morning.

I’m watching a movie! The real title (1990) is coming up, but good on Daffy for grabbing the spotlight.

So, in random cat news... there was actually a random cat this morning. It was yowling and running around the neighbourhood. My first thought was "At least it's quieter than Pippin". It was a very fluffy cat. I struggle to think of fluffy cats being strays. Like if I were a fluffy cat out on the streets, I'd at least shave my fluff into a mohawk. After trolling us with a few passes like Bruce from Jaws, it headed back up the street and into some residence.

For random reasons, I was watching Tom Waits interview videos the other night. He used the line: "I'd rather a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy." I thought it was such clever wordplay. Apparently it dates back to a book from 1965. #TomWaits

As keen as I am to declare the AI industry is a giant con, and that the leaked financials of Anthropic are proof of this ($4b revenue for a $40b loss, and $500b of future spending commitments) ... they were the 2025 numbers. I am inclinded to wait for 2026. For a few months in early 2026, there was a lot of "tokenmaxxing" which will make a rosier picture, but I also suspect that's well over now. #Anthropic #AI #AIBubble #LLMs

I feel the universe is telling me it's a very moth-oriented day. Edit: I have not seen this film before. I've seen all the Godzilla + Mothra entries tho.

I’m often asked “What does a cat look like when they are listening to Fleshgod Apocalypse through a portable speaker?” I’m glad to announce that today I can answer that question. #FleshgodApocalypse #Metal
