@thatfancypear @transitapp y'all 🤮

We just invented teleportation right? @transitapp I'll send y'all an email 😅

@aussiewongm I haven't seen a Bushell's tea billboard on a station platform for years, not since waiting for a train with my grandma. Now if someone loves billboards I believe Malvern station is still plastered with them.

What kind of person feels sad when advertising billboards get removed from a railway station? Get rid of them all I say! 🔥

@Angryoldnwhite @AmeliaBee7 When did the use of the word 'cunt' as a pejorative become acceptable? In high school I was reprimanded for using that word by an enlightened feminist girl in my class and I have never used it since, to this day.

When did the term to describe racist rednecks officially become “patriotism” in Australia, FFS?

@shitpost9000 @kalomaze Hell? Some people need to get out more.

@kalomaze How did entire rooms of Microsoft project managers look at this and not conclude " this is hell? We've created hell. "

this actually happened. there was a period of time where they were pushing this

@CyberKnight1 @kalomaze But did anything go wrong? I think you are over egging the pudding.

@kalomaze Let's put a touch interface on computers that don't have touch screens. What could go wrong?

@madhavajay @ThePunnyWorld The 'joke' word for Koala is never used in real life.

@ThePunnyWorld Aussie websites track you with TimTams and if you ignore the Accept dialogue they hit you with 0-day dropbears

I'm sorry, but shouldn't British websites use biscuits?

Faith and Fire: The true history of the Knights Templar The Knights Templar were more than medieval warriors; they built a vast financial network, guarded sacred sites, and rose to extraordinary power in a deeply religious age. abc.net.au/listen/program… via @ABCaustralia

Is the ABC Radio Melbourne branding dead? The new tag line seems to be 774 ABC Melbourne, or will they run with both, a sort of Coca Cola and Coke at the same time? We remember when the ABC Radio [insert City here] rebrand was launched with so much fanfare. #ABCaustralia #abcnews

@tomfgoodwin You expect us to believe you ever had a Pinterest account? (We're not buying it.)

Did it ever dawn on the geniuses at Pinterest that AI content completely destroys the entire fucking point I can’t wait to plan a baby shower with things that don’t exist. I can’t wait to be inspired by an impossible house. Check out this kitchen that’s misleading etc etc

@heywildrich Is that a former Pizza Hut or a Sizzler? My last meal in a Pizza Hut restaurant was in or near Junee in 1979.

@TommySiegel So like the iPhone then.

we’ve seen incredible technological advances in our lifetime

The ABC National Forum was described as 'insipid' by a caller to Rafael Epstein's program this morning. That sums it up neatly in one word. 774 ABC Radio Melbourne 20/03/2026 #abcaustralia

ABC National Forum. There is a couch of guests, like Insiders, then David Speers cuts away to a trio of other guests, inexplicably sitting on bar stools at a table. Couch guests are left in limbo but wait, he returns to them to wrap it up. No audience questions allowed.

@rhettrospective That's great and good on you for doing that. Have you also considered contacting the Museum of Victoria and/or the national museum to see if are interested?

Throughout the 1970s, 80s, and 90s, an SEC worker travelled all over Melbourne each day along with his Super 8 camera to meticulously document the city's history/events over 30 yrs. All 150+ reels, along with photos/slides have been donated to me. I will digitise and put online.

@wheelreinvent Actually, young people are dying in e-scooter crashes.

@JacintaAllanMP If you tap on the Servo Saver logo at the bottom of the home screen, you are taken straight to Servo Saver. If you follow the Transportation menu pathway, you reach the instruction to download the app. Wouldn't it make sense to remove the menu pathway? #petrol #diesel #unleaded

Servo Saver can help you find the best petrol prices around your area, so there are no surprises at the pump. Here are the petrol prices this morning, uploaded by fuel providers in real time. You can jump on the Service Victoria app and find the dedicated Servo Saver tab.

@TheAtlantic @anneapplebaum You think? The Atlantic stating the bloody obvious.

U.S. allies haven’t forgotten about Trump’s tariffs, his threats against NATO, and his curtailing of aid to Ukraine—so he shouldn’t be surprised that they’re unwilling to help him in Iran, @anneapplebaum argues.

@Tim_Cookey @anon_opin I was imitating the meerkats in the Compare The Market ads. Apologies for being so gauche.

@Melb2X @anon_opin I should probably submit this as an anon_opin, but here goes anyway: anyone who says "simples" should be summarily executed.

We've all just gormlessly accepted the switch from "pay or watch adverts" to "pay and also watch adverts".

@QuantumG @anon_opin Exactlty, as a seller I'd want my ads to reach the people with higher incomes.

@anon_opin It really doesn't make sense slinging ads at people who refuse to pay for stuff.
