I was walking past Avid Reader the other night and picked up a book on sale. I like buying paper books. But I don't especially like reading them. So I just borrowed the same one from the library to read on my Kobo.

I last saw Velociraptor in 2017 at The Brightside. Another lifetime ago. I only remembered because I walked past on the way to Black Bear Lodge.

"If everyone who streamed All Hell on Spotify had done so using Tidal instead, we would have an extra £31,847.38, which would double the amount we made from streaming of the album in this time period. Or if everyone used Apple Music it would have been £12,331 more."

Sent it to a music enjoyer buddy and he live-posted his listen-through while I was at the pub. Every time I'd look down there'd be another little music feeling, which is one of my favourite things

The curious case of the complimentary car chargers
The Brisbane convention centre has cheap parking and free car charging. For $16 in parking I can fill my car up with as much juice as I like, which is a pretty good deal, as long as I remember to do it.

I don't consider myself to have ADHD, although there's a LOT of media that wants you to self-diagnose. I've taken the odd quiz and it's like “nah”, but every so often I'll do something I consider an ‘ADHD moment’. Which, given all that, is actually a slur?

The Brisbane Metro rolls along the busway. Electric and silent, except the rubber tyres which squeak like an overly well-built latex fetishist attempting to tie their shoes
