Someone really needs to adapt War of the Worlds and directly make it any the parallels between the Martians and British Imperialism and colonialism (I'm listening Jeff Wayne's Musical Verison of War of the Worlds)

You mean the guy who leaked documents to the ABC because he thought the Army's rules of engagement were too restrictive and was mad that soldiers were committing war crimes he thought should be legal? That David McBride?

Thinking about learning again now to use my music recording tools and electronic stuff to...make music

Super fun and cool to see Matty Johns on tv all the time in the gym. Nothing further to say I guess about him

I probably shouldn't call my party a house party-cum-pot luck on the invite should I

Dua Lipa is my most normcore coded "fuck they're attractive" and I feel nothing but shame over it

Whenever I heard Kid Lorai' s STAY I can only hear Tom Walker singing it while he plays fast car gta4

Okay genuinely, what's with all these men in Sydney (the city specifically) suddenly all seeming to be into fishing in the last 3 years

The Inner West's #1 Oblivion is Freedom Enjoyer@anarchomagpie.bsky.social · 3w ago

I am lifting 140kg with my legs as part 4 of my 4 part plan to lift 150kg with my legs. You're never going to believe what's going to happen on Friday.

IT’S CALLED HENTAI, COOP. NICHE PORNOGRAPHY FROM THE LAND OF THE RISING SUN. REAL WACKYLAND STUFF LIKE TENTACLES. HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE GETTING A PROSTATE MASSAGE FROM AN OCTOPUS? ME TOO.

I still can't believe the Paris Olympics had a metal band and opera singer sing Ah! Ça ira! from the conciergerie with a bunch of decapitated Marie Antoinettes and then the building exploded with fake blood

HOWEVER: perhaps "guy who presents himself as an authority but is mostly just googling stuff" was a bad conceit for a youtube channel (2/2)

I was going through my old playlists and I found the one I was playing in repeat in the week leading up to my PhD submission. I was going through it

I can't tell if this song is singing "we were lovers in a past life", "we were lovers in a part time", or "we were lovers in apartheid"

what if we didn’t complain about any of the genders in sweeping essentialist terms

I'm listening Charli xcx's Music, Fashion, Film for something like the 8th time and it's so good? Even the track order has got the rhythm and sequence of a mid-2000s pop punk album. She's made something great
