Folks, we’ve all done the quollity joke, then realised it’s not good quollity at all. Time to think of a new one.

Tonight is the first time in nine days without nasty, nasty pain, merely a dull ache. It’s wonderful.
Around 24 hours from now “The 9pm Edict” will (finally!) be recorded / streamed from stilgherrian.com/edict/live/. That’s 2100 AEDT Friday.

I am not surprised to see that the train is utterly overcrowded. I’ll have an icecream instead.
If this next train looks crowded I’ll wait for the next one, I reckon. Here we go.
There seems to be some upfuckage in the #purpletrain department. Running late, we’re told, and 4 cars instead of 8. Reconsidering.

It appears that “The 9pm Edict” will be able to explore the “special relationship” between AU and US.
Thu plan, corollary: “The 9pm Edict” will not be recorded/streamed tonight, but tomorrow (Friday) night at 2100 AEDT. It’ll be better then.
