It's 7:47 AM and I'm listening to the song Superunknown by Soundgarden!

I'm trying to invent the word 'pande-moth-nium'. It's like 'pandemonium', but involves a cat chasing a moth around the room causing chaos.

I'm going to sleep now. My availability will be lower than the average Microsoft cloud service, but at least I had planned for it.

Today's "Team fun question" was 'First job?'. One guy said it was dressing up as a clown for children. I kinda got to double answer, because my first job was working at Woolworths, where I also got to dress up in a bear costume one time. Anyway, I shared this with the team, so I'll share it here too for your amusement. (CW: 1999 images)

Diane Morgon is one of those actors where you see an image of them, with a subtitle, and you can hear the accent. #DianeMorgan #PhilomenaCunk

Reminder... 'Cunk On Cinema' is out this weekend. I remember struggling to stop laughing, with kids having just gone to bed, on my first viewing of 'Cunk On Earth'. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2026/nov/12/cunk-on-cinema-review-philomena-cunk-diane-morgan-bbc-two #PhilomenaCunk #CunkOnCinema #DianeMorgan

I have eaten a bowl of chilli marinated tofu, mixed in with chicken flavour two minute noodles. (vegan, apparently) I can now see through time! It seems like... I will... spend much of the weekend lazing around. Good to know.

I gave Pippin Cat some treats because he over-invested in Nvidia and now his portfolio is in tatters.

"Nvidia prepares to oust Jensen Huang, WSJ reports — stock sinks further" Apparently he was caught on camera with different person, a Nvidia exec, back in March. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/11/11/nvidia-jensen-huang-affair-employee.html

If you consider's Godzilla's grumpiness, preference for solitude, propensity to destroy anything that annoys him, and also seemingly multiple lives... ... yeah ... ... cat. #Godzilla

Does anyone have any suggestions about driving from Canberra to Parramatta for a conference that starts at 9:30 AM? (In a couple of weeks time) I have visions of me being stuck in unfamiliar streets, looking for parking locations, all the while staring at my heart-rate monitor thinking... "Oh no! If my BPM crosses the threshold... the 'other guy' is gonna come out!!!" #Parramatta

I’m watching the 39th film in a series. Luckily I’ve seen the previous 38 films, so I’ll know what’s going on. #Godzilla

Pippin Cat is running around chirping. I think he's still mad at some birds outside the window that disrespected him this arvo.

The most confounding thing I've ever seen put on a pizza was unpitted olives. A restaurant in Civic (Canberra) used to serve it that way. To this day, I still don't understand how it's meant to be consumed.

I put on Godzilla Minus One while I potter around and do things. I kinda forgot that a good part of this movie is punching the audience right in the gut. (It turns out ok) (... or does it?!?!) #Godzilla

Truly, this has been the most dramatic popular vote since Taylor Swift was banned from Triple J's Hottest 100 songs of 2014. #USPol #Hottest100 #JJJ #TripleJ #Tay4Hottest100 #NeverForget

If you have 3 minutes spare, this video of Patrick Stewart talking about meeting Sting on the set of Dune is quite funny. https://youtu.be/Fb_LO7gJo-4 #PatrickStewart #Dune

I have committed to waking up at 5:00 AM every morning. One way of understanding this is that I am planning on early exercise at 5:00 AM every morning. Another, perhaps more compelling, way of understanding this is that I have shifted the cat feed times so he is fed at 5:00 AM every morning.

I’m watching a movie! The real title (1990) is coming up, but good on Daffy for grabbing the spotlight.
