Hi! My name is Josh, this me blog.

The dance of pleasing the social media algorithims of the world’s biggest companies, whilst being beat to death by strangers with their comments displeased me so now I’m here.

I wish I were the kind of person who could just live without broadcasting. But there’s an animal inside me — right down in the marrow — that keeps asking ‘can you see me?’ and silence has never once soothed it.

  • Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme is hosting a show on #Beats1 right now with Fred Armiston. Such a good listen!

  • "Sometimes I get emotional over fonts" - Kanye West. I know those feels, Yeezus.

  • It looks like Aust is the only remaining market where MOG operates, it's been merged into Beats, merged into Apple Music everywhere else.

  • Telstra still cagey on MOG, which they supply through BigPond, which is owned by Beats, and such, @AppleMusic ... @Telstra's music page=0.

  • Seeing Samuel L. Jackson on Bet365 ads make me wonder whether he has cancer and is trying to prepare a kitty for his family before he dies.

  • Weddings in Queensland this weekend will not have something blue out of respect for the NSW team's loss tonight. Our condolences #origin

  • #Beats1 @AppleMusic must have read about Triple M dissing them on @_radiotoday so now they're advertising during #Origin ... SCA vs Apple.

  • Origin, the original "go back to where you came from"

  • Cafe owner just said he's looking for a "takes no prisoners" kind of person.

  • Desperately want to go and help the poor thing, floundering around in this interview, I think he's almost crying!

  • Sitting at a cafe listening to this poor kid being interviewed for an apprentice chef gig is killing me.

  • Does @Beats1's paying adult audience really require censored songs? Even the DJs swear. Let's go un-censored, @zanelowe #beats1

  • ALWAYS ON #BEATS1

  • I have strong positive feelings about #beats1

  • Grooooooove is in the heaarrrttt #Beats1

  • There is seriously an amazing conversation happening on Beats (GTA) 1 radio right now about unicorns.

  • Beats 1 radio is basically real-life GTA radio.

  • My greatest fear is that I will never finish my Kindle and Podcast libraries.

  • I need to take my family out for dessert tonight in Brisbane. Where's cool and hip and swanky?

  • Where should I take visiting family out for dessert in Brissie tonight? City/Valley/New Farm?

  • The flashing white light above the exit sign in the under-river tunnel does not scare me at all ... #clem7

  • ALL DAY BREAKFAST FROM MCDONALDS, BEATS ONE RADIO WITH APPLE MUSIC, AND MARRIAGE EQUALITY ON THE SAME DAY, WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!!

  • I have so much to say about @Beats1 .... it's just so good. If nothing else, it's bankrolled by Apple so I haven't heard an ad ... yet.

  • Beats 1. Wow. Bye, bye, music-only local radio.

  • In that, they're all for massive corporates, or they don't have the flexibility for my business structure, or that they're so flexible etc.

  • I'd seriously pay someone $50 to guide me to the right CRM/business management tool. I've tried so many, they're all the same :(

  • I can understand Abbott's hesitance on marriage equality. The last time we blindly followed the USA it cost us 40 diggers & $7.5B.

  • How about we get some of that progression out of the basement to give the old law a bit of a spit polish and make her look all modern again?

  • In 1961, Australia introduced some of the most progressive marriage legislation in the world.

  • Should someone tell the Catholic Church that marriage became a civil thing in OZ in 1961. They're not losing it today, they lost it in 61

  • Just realised I'm now authorised to marry same sex couples ... in the USA! Such a long way to travel to access equality.

  • That's a bit cray cray, Ruddy.

  • Phillip Ruddock on Q&A last night proposed rescinding the authority of civil celebrants, closing 8800 small businesses in Australia.

  • Why aren't there any homeless people in Dreamworld? Can the rest of Australia learn from this progressive local community?

  • Business idea: pools without water for people who can't swim.

  • Excitement is brewing around the Withers house as we just secured tickets to see @replyall in a live podcast recording while we're in NYC!

  • I'll always remember the day I met the late Gold Coast Mayor, Ron Clarke, and he called me Red Dog for no apparent reason.

  • A same-sex marriage ceremony between a male couple named Eddie and Al and Paul Simon is the wedding singer, dream wedding.

  • Beyond almost all doubt I can say there is not a single USB-C storage device in Queensland available for purchase.

  • Can someone help with a screenshot from an Android device? Just need a screenshot of searching the Play Store for Instagram

  • The new MacBook 12" even lacks an infra-red port so the Apple Remote doesn't work for Keynote presentations.

  • It's quite embarrassing for Apple and annoying for owners, that the new 12" #MacBook is so under-supplied for accessories.

  • I'm not that good of a tourist.

  • We're going to New York next month and the only plan I have for the city is to read the New York Times in a Starbucks one morning.

  • Walking into the Apple Store and still don't know what laptop I want to buy.

  • "If the world is cold, make it your business to build fires." - Author, Horace Traubel, describing the very basic fundamentals of business

  • I was hoping for some Apple laptop refreshes this week but they don't look like they're coming and my MacBook Air 11" is showing its age.

  • Does anyone know anyone who owns the new 12" MacBook?

  • Million dollar business idea: start a touring New Radicals covers band called the Old Radicals.

  • They say our brain is our greatest enemy, but that's exactly what the drop bears want you to think.
