@rashidapowell @DJBentley We should. If I remember in the morning I’ll give it a prod.
@NicholasFryer We always do @DownloadABC standing, @domknight varies according to his, oh, energy levels I suppose.
@NicholasFryer The remodelled ABC studios in Sydney are reconfigurable as standing or sitting. Screens and mics can be raised/lowered…
@NicholasFryer @sylmobile Thank you. I think. I don’t think that was my best for the day, but it’s been a weird week.
@rashidapowell @DJBentley Childhood rather than adult, but in play emergencies I called for an “ambliance” for far too long. #fauxnetics
I’m only half gone. So there’s still time for you to learn about Vectron. Obviously. youtu.be/icTrzUuWlHI
Great. If I die during the night they’ll be my last words. No. These will be. Oh fuck it, this is too confusing.
STOP RETWEETING THAT QI BULLSHIT YOU FUCKTARDS.
@SnarkyPlatypus Did you see this earlier? pic.twitter.com/kmIMgkcPpL
Right. I’ve just discovered that I won’t be able to sleep in tomorrow because of the Arsehattery of the Ignorant. I’m going away now.
@DJBentley Yeah, it’s that idiot British classist idea that we all know French. (French? I can’t remember.) I just know “segue” ‘cos radio.
@jennylmackinnon Scat, maybe? I’d rather not speculate.
@DJBentley Yeah fair enough, that’s not unreasonable. It’s a stupid word anyway. An arsehat word, if you will.
RT @kcarruthers: I must be getting older. Just looked at Volvo & thought it looked nice. [HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!]
@DJBentley Um, how were you pronouncing it previously?
RT @misskylie77: @stilgherrian is peppa the one with the perfect bum? [Well, obviously.]
Wait. So Pippa Middleton and Peppa Pig are different things?
@belindafarrelly I’m sure I don’t know what you mean. I’m sure, I say.
@marcfennell We did indeed. Even in the video, Much is concealed, magic of television etc. You can summon me any time. I am a media whore.
Burning the last dregs of the dinosaur juice.
And there goes the electricity. Buggerama.
@marcfennell Mad props to your editing skillz, Sir, we made a thing that actually worked.
@belindafarrelly All I will say now is that everything is “explained” in my first few tweets of the day. stilgherrian.com/twitter/2014/0…
@dobes Indeed, why not.
Jesus wept, the entire @DownloadABC episode is also available as video. youtube.com/watch?v=fQWygz…
In this week’s @DownloadABC, @marcfennell copes with me and no other guest to dilute the concentrated me. Poor sod. abc.net.au/radionational/…

“Investigation by @peta.” Now there’s a curious phrase.
@markhellewel That’s not the point. Also, how dare you.
RT @sylmobile: Some very fine fistula images on the internet… [Of course. It’s one of the most beautiful rivers in Europe.]
@SnarkyPlatypus @zdnetaustralia “It was a team effort,” that’s the official stance.
That headline still makes me laugh a week later. I’m not sure if that’s because it’s a good headline or because my mind is broken.
Me at @zdnetaustralia last week with excellent* headline: “Ancient vulnerabilities are geddon in the way of security” zdnet.com/ancient-vulner…
@sylmobile Fistula.

TumblrTXT memes have always been about destroying masculinity. destroy ur balls to ascend to True Memes
@MikeCarlton01 @cathywilcox1 @tonyowright Freelancers simply can’t afford a professional hit.
Yes, @RealNickHodge, that is EXACTLY what I just remembered. Fuck, you’re good! m.youtube.com/watch?v=wjfZG9…
Suddenly remembering.
Thank you, @TheRoastTV, for last night referring to that sportsball series as “32 Nations 1 Cup”.
RT @BlogsofWar: Hagel at Eglin: F-35 is the future goo.gl/HbciKE [So… The F-35 is a monorail? Confused.]

@cathywilcox1 Easy. Kill the Saturday cartoonist.
@NewtonMark Yes, I’ve been impressed with their excellent* safety record. Can’t wait to see how the buildings go once they’re finished.

SwiftOnSecurity “Find singles in your area.”
What, like a BSD user group?
Thanks for the tweets about my @zdnetaustralia column. I’ll respond where needed tomorrow. I’m really quite braindead just now.
Finally back at @bunjaree at the end of an exhausting week. There’s still things to be done, but I’m downing tools for today.
OH, young film reviewer on train: “It’s like normal ‘Transformers’ but with explosions and shit. It’s just explosions.”
@AtomicMPC @expectproblems Excellent, as long as there’s at least one badger, honey.
rebenjamint Well, this is upsetting (good headline though)
@theage pic.twitter.com/0Q26PBKCKo
@AtomicMPC @expectproblems You’ve changed.
@AtomicMPC @expectproblems There should be badgers in there somewhere. You know that.
So, the government is installing Fibre to the Basement to increase the productivity of internet trolls?
@expectproblems Well that’s a different game yet again. One I might buy.
Has Senator Conroy been “helping” again?
@engochick Thank you. That said, I’m happy to concede that this particular paragraph was shit, and I rewrote it.
@expectproblems Have you thought of a game called “Metricide”, where reactionary terrorists fight for a return to imperial measures?
Me at @zdnetaustralia: “Big data is just a big, distracting bubble, soon to burst”, with @dsearls @matthewlandauer zdnet.com/big-data-is-ju…
@engochick I wouldn’t be so sure about that. That’s where it came from.
“It’s confusing and I don’t like it.” A sentence that applies to so many aspects of existence.
@expectproblems I have seen those machines.
dobes TAKE THESE THOUGHTS OUT OF MY HEAD!!! EEEEWWW!!! THE HAIR!!!! RT @zackster: I am enjoying the Ludlam/Conroy tag teaming #nbn
RT @expectproblems: So. Fucking. Close. [Just a few more well-paced strokes, then, Rohan?]
@dobes This pleases me.
Column filed for @zdnetaustralia. Will my email be accepted by their mail server today, I wonder?
RT @NewtonMark: Someone set fire to Balmain? pic.twitter.com/xSfYIR01bJ [One can only hope…]
@jturner_ibrs Neither can we.

On hold for @ABCSouthEastNSW. Here we go.
Fri plan: @ABCSouthEastNSW spot; write for @zdnetaustralia; shopping, Katoomba; client website maintenance; story pitches; TGIF.
@jamezpolley @henaredegan The AMSA thing wasn’t widely reported. It all happened in the evening during Estimates, if I remember right.
Shortly, at 0935 AEST, I’ll be talking about robot journalism @ABCSouthEastNSW. No internet stream. You know your local frequencies?
@henaredegan Well, $30 for a pony sounds like good value to me.

As @BernardKeane wrote yesterday of Abbott in opposition, it’s his “refusal to be bound by any sense of consistency or evidential rigour.”
Wind up the little Abbottbot, turn it to face the enemy, and watch it fight and fight and fight and fight. Whirr, punch. Whirr, punch.
“I will fight on: Tony Abbott” smh.com.au/federal-politi… Not ‘negotiate’ or ‘lead’ or ‘provide vision’. Just ‘fight’. It’s all he can do.
Fri plan, draft, unordered: Write for @zdnetaustralia; 0935 ABC South East NSW; shopping; client website maintenance; story pitches; TGIF.

@SnarkyPlatypus Je ne sais pas ce que cela signifie. Mais aujourd’hui, je me réveille à Katoomba.
@bodskibod Then you must trust in me and Mikimoto-san. Please take a number and we’ll get to you eventually.
Friday. There is a glimmer of hope, but you are of course mistaken. You are a fool. Friday.
That was meant to be “hope” not “home”. So I am going to do that again.
@SnarkyPlatypus Bonjour. Je suis dans la mauvaise ville et modérément confus. Mais la frappe est un nouveau plaisir. Et vous?
A big thank-you to Mikimoto Kōkichi (御木本 幸吉), who created the first cultured pearl on 11 July 1893. Pearl necklaces for everyone!
RT @NeinQuarterly: Someone sent me this a few days ago. I cannot look away. pic.twitter.com/msNPMvYJnx [This is precisely what I mean.]
Friday. There is a glimmer of home, but you are of course mistaken. You are a fool. Friday.
