i wish the leafs hadnt traded him away 😢

i just checked the ÖBB app and saw this and my heart skipped a beat (it turns out that my train to berlin in a month’s time is now departing vienna at 22h38 instead of 22h10)

look i still find it amazing that when i was a child/early teenager a entry/mid-level pc was about $2k, and now an entry-mid-level pc is still about $2k.

imagine the pressure he’d be under to turn up to this and smile about it, as captain of the national team. you know, if for a second we could be generous and give him a momentary benefit of the doubt

surely the british government doesn’t have a database that contains everyone who may be eligible for british citizenship? if you are a uk-aus dual citizen and enter the uk on an australian passport, they’ll probably just treat you as a foreigner and you can’t claim any uk citizenship privileges

im irrationally angry about how hot its been lately

Here it is! The 300 page 'Business' case for Newcastle to Sydney High Speed Rail.

I've not read it yet, that's for the rest of the week.

Apart from my antipathy to the whole concept of Business Cases, I'll read it with interest.

But normal people won't read it.

and a proper night train with its not-so-time-critical schedule!

i almost might just go to bed, i cannot handle this

overtime are you kidding me

oh man i almost dont want to watch (but like, even if they lose they still get a medal)

ok im going to watch the canada-usa mens hockey gold medal game live

i love nick suzuki, i just think he’s neat

im catching up on the canada-finland mens hockey semi final!

are all the commonwealth realms going to pass corresponding/enabling acts to amend the royal line of succession

via rail canada: *coughs 1940s budd cars splutters*

(also i’ve been to a bunch of other countries that claim to have unique coffee cultures too so maybe we need to check ourselves on that claim)

lmao three sydney coffee places in the top 20, and the highest melbourne place is ranked at no. 27

there’s a new item in this bulletin about teacher grads and promotions, and it seems like the philippines makes teachers take an oath before they taking their jobs

sometimes i watch a video about a regional train journey that crosses a whole (european) country and then they say its like 80km, and i remember that the greater sydney region is bigger than that

this is so funny. when i’ve been visiting my dad in the hospital, just before i leave at the end of visiting hours, i put on the filipino news – bente kwatro oras (24 hours)

celebrinnniiii

finally sitting down to catch up on the canada-czechia game!

hallelujah!

Holy shit it seems I was too pessimistic. Good news! May we hope it is the precursor to greater news: Te Huia being put on a permanent footing and re-equipped with modern trainsets rather than 40–50yo diesel locos and carriages refurbished to within an inch of their life

i’ll be wearing my suzuki 14 habs jersey to jersey day at work this year
