Which countries go without either?
That’s like $130 per household… it’s not that much really …. It’s a big number for sure, but it’s spread across 10 million households

Crazy descent, loss of airspeed…. Turned 180 degrees and turned off transponder at 1600 ft, west of Homs at Kirbat Tin Nur

Anyone at a loose end tonight in Brisbane, go check out the legend that is Bob Mould

The final Virgin Australia lounge of the tour, Sydney. The final show of the year, tonight at the Triffid in Brisbane.

Great to see you posting on bsky again. Love seeing the inbounds/outbounds @fouthtimelucky.bsky.social

Damn, that was awesome! One of my all time fav zep tracks.
First stab at using Scapeshift...I'm a convert! I've been mixing other peoples music for years, but being able to create so easily is mind-blowing!
