Full add on triple j for this exceptional song this morning
www.abc.net.au/triplejunear...

Explaining to the 400th person why Lonelyspeck Wishing is the best song of the year so far

Excellent

tragedy + time = comedy. but tragedy - time = all good brother. no tragedy yet. to me that's preferable

Job going at the triple j Unearthed team. Arguably THE job, Music Director. Details here if you're keen: t.co/L9Js2C27dV

Anything yet or…?

Thinking about how I hardly slept last night so that I could watch the most vile ass game of football which then put me in a trash mood which is then exacerbated by hardly sleeping last night #ARSWHU

#nwaneri hive, we’re back tonight

Hate this stat

Merino at centre-forward went from a meme to “might be our only option to win this game” to being the obvious choice for our coming games. Big impact.

The last sentence of @jonathanliew.bsky.social’s piece from Goodison on football madness is golden.

A THIRD DISTANCE by Max Lavergne. A friend in need is a friend indeed - and the enemy of my enemy is my friend, whether I need them or not - and I keep them close, with the rest of my friends, but not as close as I keep my enemies, who I keep closer still - unless by some anomaly of the enemy/friend calculus I am forced to maintain a third distance from them - perhaps less close, or even closer yet, or so similar to the closeness I maintain to my friends and my enemies that I can't tell who is which one, if any, or neither. And revenge is a dish best served cold - and the best revenge is success, which is why I am laying the foundations of a thousand year empire - to silence my enemies, and also why I'm not telling anyone about it - not yet - not until its longevity is so assured that all heat has dispersed from it completely, and I am able to serve the fact of my triumph on a tray of rock ice to the surprised recipients of my vengeance - and also to myself, for when seeking revenge one must dig two graves, with one grave for yourself, which is still true when your revenge is success, and also because I would have to be my own worst enemy to deliberately thwart the satisfaction of my eternal dominion - and I don't know how far away to keep that.

I've always said this

I flew to London return for less than this

the "an average person eats 3 spiders a year” factoid is actually just a statistical error. an average person eats 0 spiders per year. Spiders Georg, who lives in a cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier and should not have been counted
