Love “Everybody Wants To Be An Astronaut” by Royal Republic. The rest of their music isn’t like that.

The Dark Knight Returns is great, but I can’t recommend the sequel series. Frank Miller pivots to…

‘On’ Spain?

When I was a teenager an American visitor wrote to our biggest newspaper calling us a shitty little 3rd world country for not serving hashbrowns. Which is how I learned what a hashbrown is.

Our planet once ate another, smaller, planet.

There’s a pie in that soup, isn’t there - digger?

Not as hard as we mock the guy who really thought we’d pronounce it “Oo-RAH-nus”.

August last year, when my cat went into advanced stage kidney failure and I chose to have her put to sleep. She had stopped eating and didn’t have the strength to support her own head at that point so not a difficult decision, but still very hard to accept.

This isn’t the future any of us wanted.

Ask a Tongan why their grandparents don’t like Samoans.

Who are you? Where’s the regular nurse?

Jesus, I read about that technique in a science magazine in the 90s.

I once read a post by an Etsy clothes-maker complaining that pants with pockets were her worst-selling items. Maybe that’s why?

I’m not a warrior, I’ve just lost the memory of what happened last time, and all the numbers after 8 and the word for those flapping flying things that sit on power lines. People keep talking about Traumatic Brain Injury. I think that’s my favourite punk band?
