Time to collapse. Something about burning the candle at both ends and/or a dildo. Confused? Ask @elronxenu. Thud.
New blog post: “Talking Twitter and censorship on ABC Local Radio”, with tonight’s audio. arseh.at/rws
And the radio is done! Thank you @domknight, thank you @702sydney, thank you linersmen, thank you ball boys.
On hold for @domknight at ABC @702sydney and around NSW. Listen at arseh.at/rwo
RT @peter_tonoli: FBI to monitor Facebook, Twitter, Myspace arseh.at/rwl [Erm, they’re not already? That strikes me as odd.]
@courteneyh I’m currently revising my bio with a “what people said” page. May I include “You’ll always be the dildo dude to me”?
@miss_shiny The avatar is indeed an amethyst. /cc @courteneyh @mwyres @PointZeroOne (and others Twitter may have forgotten to transmit)
I’m on ABC @702sydney and NSW local radio at 2120 talking Twitter and censorship with @domknight. Listen at arseh.at/qbh
You are far from the first person to suggest my current avatar looks like a dildo or vibrator, @courteneyh, BUT IT IS NOT!
@ddowza And since you’re working at a media organisation now, I am compelled to tell you that “a lot” is two words.
@courteneyh Have you hear of Wikipedia? Apparently it’s on the internet somewhere. The kids love it, apparently.
@ddowza @NewtonMark Hmmm. Spambot traffic or even a DDoD wouldn’t cause the home page to flip between versions. /cc @crikey_news
Hmmm… My @crikey_news piece is now listed on the home page as part of the current newsletter, but it clicks through to a 404.
As promised, here’s the wider view over the valley tonight. flic.kr/p/bkRBy6 Ping @R_Chirgwin
@en_gy Sorry to disappoint, but this time @SnarkyPlatypus’ bloodshed and mine are not connected.
@onecuckoosnest @REDV6 @oberonsghost @sylmobile Thank you. Another photo coming momentarily.
Still bleeding from crashing barefoot through the undergrowth, but glad I grabbed this image. flic.kr/p/bkR6oB Ping @R_Chirgwin
@AndrewPStreet Christ, that @domknight bloke has just anyone on his program, doesn’t he! I blame Creeping Sharia.
A sudden, brief evening shower of rain brings a very different mood to the mountains.
@BernardKeane @BernardKeane Well YOUR new content may be up at @crikey_news, but we’re not all so lucky.
If it helps, I’m talking about Twitter and censorship with @domknight on ABC Local Radio at 2120 tonight. I’m opening the wine now.
What does it mean when your farts smell of eggs?
@SnarkyPlatypus Blood from carpet? A women who cleaned up crime scenes told me “A Stanley knife. Cut out that bit of carpet and replace it.”
Hmmm… Things seem to be a little broken at @crikey_news right now, so I can’t pimp the thing I wrote there.
So I step away from the internet oh so briefly and when I return @mpesce @sylmobile @MikeStuchbery are discussing selfish sphincters. See?
You know that thing I said yesterday that I really should write down so I remember it? Me neither.
@fat_asian Nope, not a dildo. It’s a small amethyst crystal. And, before you ask, I never explain my choice of Twitter avatars.
@fat_asian Ah before I answer that, I’ll ask you what you think it is.
No, @jeamland, this recipe youtu.be/S7GGkKpBR-g would not help. Sigh.
@fat_asian You’ve lost me, sorry. I don’t understand your question. “dp”?
Thanks for your advice and/or sympathy, @Wyld @purserj @Pelican1, but fortunately I seem to have found the video recipe I need.
So, here I am once more in the confused mess that is video formats. With luck, I’ll have sorted this by Christmas.
@GhostSwirv I haven’t read any of Mr Gaiman’s work, but if that’s his style I’m happy with that.
Patch Monday podcast: “Skipping security is human nature”, with bonus diagram. arseh.at/rw0
Dear Twitterverse, just because RTd or agreed with one thing you said doesn’t mean I agree with the entire rest of your fucked-up worldview.
Oh. In case you haven’t guessed, I’ve filed the late-request @crikey_news piece and I’m taking a break before my next media blockbuster.
@ddowza Yeah, that’s pretty much it. Add the occasional literary reference so people think you’re intelligent and you’re done.
@ddowza Oh, I would never descend into that left-wing right-wing arsehattery. Mine is a far higher quality of crap analysis.
RT @JohnBirmingham: @John_Hanna i dont mind hitting the paywall. it reminds me I cant be fucked reading the thing anyway. [Hurrah!]
RT @johnemcintyre: Got “indefatigably” into a headline. Score. [At least somebody’s day is going well.]
Somehow this thing I am writing for @crikey_news namechecks both Frank Herbert and Ayn Rand. Today is just weird.
RT @simonswatman: Unless you’re a weirdo with a thing for bird shit, always push a Heron through a letterbox tail first. HT @charltonbrooker
“Patch Monday” podcast filed. Morning rearranged to make everything fit. Mood adjusted by slaughtering several endangered species.
@izevaka My sincere apologies if any of my tweets fail to meet your standards for in-depth analysis. Also, go fuck yourself.
Switching into studio mode. Quiet please. I’ll be done by around 1030, I’d say.
@DownloadABC Sorry for how I expressed by point last night, but I worry the ABC lacks the confidence to turn down being Zuckerberg’s bitch.
@izevaka Personally I find that reducing criticisms to “hating” and then labelling the critics “haters” to be rather shallow, don’t you?
Please that my old AIR-based TweetDeck suddenly decide to start working again. Displeased at the things it’s revealing.
Mon plan: Complete “Patch Monday” podcast, related video; write for @CSO_Australia; lock in week’s plan; clear comms backlog; solve mystery.
I do believe that @charltonbrooker has got it right about “sharing” being all out of whack. arseh.at/rvu
Confused.
Monday. This is how it begins, you know. And then it’s all downhill from here.
