The first and second world wars weren’t called that when they happened. 9/11 wasn’t called 9/11 on the 11th of September 2001.

What do you think this pandemic will be called in 20 years time?

Our bookless future

Version one of May 10, 2020, was supposed to be flying business class as a family to Rome.

Version two sees us with a first class beach upgrade.

So much legroom, and the passengers up the front here are much friendlier.

For a guy who boldly asked "how many dudes you know roll like this" and " how many dudes you know flow like this" and then answered "not many, if any" you'd really think Scribe would have released at least a few popular albums.

Apple and Google will both ban location tracking in apps that use their contact tracing – Reuters

Australian street gang approached me last night

For the first time in my memory, this weekend you could see South Stradbroke Island from Point Danger, 45 kilometres away.

I couldn’t get a good photo from Point Danger so this photo is from Currumbin Creek.

If you're worried about the machines taking over, don't be too worried, they won't be able to win us over with their art.

This is AI created heavy metal.

Luna approaches an elderly lady on the beach, I look at them both smiling and say “say hi!” The lady looks my in the eyes and says hi.

So that’s how we got our second child who’s also an elderly lady.

Pizza Hut. Dine In Restsurant. Kirra, Queensland, Australia. 2020. Sad face.

Father of the year, photographs his daughter picking up some seaweed. Seaweed is actually a bluebottle jellyfish. When do I get my medal?

If COVID-19 doesn't get me, rescheduling weddings and elopements probably will. Welcome to my TED Talk.

Breathing from a hole in my lung, I had no one. With faces in front of me racing through the void in my head to find traces of a good luck academy // Straight Lines

If you’ve ever thought that Facebook was listening, it is, just not through your phone’s microphone, but through your activity. Everything you do, everything you click, everything you like, gives away more than any app released by a government.

Just after the Coronavirus first hit the economy bad, I invested savings, a house deposit, into a managed fund. Today we withdrew that cash so we could buy a house (because we're currently living in an Airbnb) and I made a 1.9% profit. The Milky Bars are on me.

Australia: Uses their child’s name with a capital first letter then a number at the end as a password, and also has strong feelings about the COVIDSafe contact tracing app’s privacy implications.

Today in old white male news, one old white man claims that his use of a smirking pose on a dark background with his name in an all caps serif font has been copied. Old white men nationwide are outraged.

Homocide Detective: Yeah, it was definitely the wife.

About 10yrs ago I had a burger at a small town in Western Australia whilst driving across the desert to Perth and I haven't received an email from that burger artist yet to find out how they're responding to COVID-19. This is super disappointing. It's like they don't even care.

I'll know this virus has gotten really bad when the Qantas On-Hold Music Band start doing free concerts on Instagram Live.

Considering that all of the pubs and bars are closed, is now the time for all of them to agree on a national beer size standard?

I wouldn’t worry about even getting COVID-19 when COVID-20 is going to be released in a few months and it will support 5G.

Walked to Twin Towns for a Checkpoint Charlie (Queensland’s closed border) photo and all I got were these JPEGs.

Don’t forget to wind your clock back to 2021 when daylight savings ends this weekend. Maybe that will help end this?

Could I please ask you to import that fact into Photoshop and blur it a little. I only trust information I read in low-resolution images shared on social media.

I just found out that there’s a dog food called Applaws so everything’s going to be ok guys.

If everyone is working from home and social distancing, who’s in the Wiggle House? Who’s in the Wiggle House? Who’s in the Wiggle House today?

Who ever imagined that when the apocalypse arrived we’d all be fighting it by standing at the sink washing our hands thoroughly to the beat of I Will Survive?

95% of content on social media this week is pure Coronavirus-related speculation, I reckon.

iPadOS’ machine learning has finally figured out what I do for a living.

OMG did you hear that everyone is stocking up on wedding celebrants because of the Coronavirus?!

(Just go along with this one guys, it’s a sales technique 🤫)

If I started fake coughing and sneezing on this full flight I’m on right now would that be a hilarious prank or would I be the worst person alive?

Trying to make a photo of a sweet sunset moon and in sneaks a Qantas Boeing 717.

Do you think we haven’t met aliens yet because one time someone didn’t invite them to a wedding and they’ve held a grudge ever since?

Spaghetti is pronounced bisgetti. Prove me wrong.

The ABC (Australia’s for my international friends) has done an outstanding job of documenting the Australian bushfires in this single article. I haven’t seen reporting like this from anyone.

The first bushfire mentioned is 30km/18 miles inland from our home, but we were fine.
