This isn’t a hot take! Because it’s very factual.
I’m just a boy, standing in front of a statue of Steve Rogers, asking it to love them.
they/them, ask me for comic recs. Uh… yeah. Have a great day.
You can find me elsewhere here:
This isn’t a hot take! Because it’s very factual.
I did mine with YouTube Music and my top artist was The Beatles. Second was Ringo Starr. Third is George Harrison. Fourth is Paul McCartney. Fifth was Hail the Sun.
I just realised why The Beatles was number one at 10 hours, it was because I listened to the Anthology albums (1, 2 and 3), which are 2 hours and a half hours (give or take). And also the times I relistened to Now and Then.
God this is fucking embarrassing hahaha.
KISSINGER IS FINALLY DEAD!
(Sorry if celebrating the death of a horrible war criminal is not good).
I mean changing sheets suck no matter what. I just wish I did it earlier. Oh well, that’s my fault.
Gosh… changing my sheets makes me realise how disabled I actually am. Jesus Christ.
But hey, the summer sheets are on, though this week it’ll be cold so…
Welp… I bought a PS5 during my lunch break. Now to be fair, it’s $679, the disc version AND I get Spider-Man 2 for free (for non-gamers, Spider-Man 2 came out less than a month ago and it’s usually priced between $100 and $125 depending on where you get it from). I mean I put it all on Afterpay, but I only have to spend $169.75 every fortnight so yay!
Besides I also don’t have to a) borrow my partner’s PS5 when I put my hand up to review a PS5 game for my 2nd job b) when PS5 exclusive games are up for review I can actually do it without having to worry about a. and c) Play PS5 games when I want and don’t have to wait every 2nd weekend for my partner to bring their PS5 or I go to their place and play it.
So I think I’ve mentioned it before, but I’ve been listening to all the Beatles’ post-breakup albums.
First is Lennon and like, eh? I mean, he has some pretty good songs, and obviously his discography is going to be vastly different to the others based off time and all. I liked Wall and Bridges and Double Fantasy, but his other stuff with Yoko is weird (and I say that as someone who will listen to scremo and speedcore), and Some Time in New York (1972) while interesting politically, it’s so jarring and really just… 70s. I mean their title track is Woman Is The N-Word of the World, which politically, I’m all for, but the title does make me uncomfortable, though that could be the point.
Next is Harrison, which, I actually really like a lot of his songs. His 2-track album Electronic Sounds (1969) was definitely something. But All Things Must Pass is a hit for a reason, and it’s so sweet he wrote a song for the group of fans that would hang around Abbey Road. And When We Was Fab on his album Cloud Nine (1987) is a bop. Harrison was such a lyrical genius it’s a shame that he didn’t get many credits on The Beatles albums, because most of his are my favourites.
At the moment I’m going through Ringo’s catalogue, and I’ve got to say, genre-wise I think that Ringo’s is the most varied. Obviously, Lennon didn’t really get a chance to follow the rising popular genres of the 80s, 90s, 00s and 10s compared to Harrison and in turn compared to Paul and Ringo. But man, sometimes you’ll get country, jazz, a bit of ska too, and then pop, electronic, soul. It’s wild. I think his early stuff is a little rough, but I guess it was really difficult for Ringo to get out of that bubble. The stuff I read about how he was scared that John, Paul and George were going to kick him out is just tough to read. But I’m actually digging more of his later stuff, I think I’ve got maybe one or two more EPs to go and then Ringo will be finished.
Thus, the last one will be Paul. I left Paul for last because he’s my favourite, though I have heard his music post-breakup. I mean y’all heard the banger Temporary Secretary? Unironically slaps. But yeah, I mean I’ve heard some Wings stuff, I remember when Egypt Station (2018) dropped and I was walking to work and I loved it. But yeah, very keen.
Going on radio again tomorrow and I found out today that the 3/3a tram doesn’t go through St Kilda any more. So now I have to go to Malvern 😭 to catch a tram.
Though tomorrow afterwards my sister is having her birthday dinner at a KBBQ place (which I’m pumped for but also jealous because I wanted to do KBBQ for my dinner last year but mum didn’t want to do that) so mum suggested that she can drive me to St Kilda. So whoo!
Haha, too good!
It depends on the cooker you have and what you’re cooking. Like I have the shitty Kmart one that only cooks one way (there is a steamer but we don’t use that as often as we should) so it would take maybe 15 to 30 minutes, and will cook everything the same no matter what you put in it. But the fancy ones that sing when it’s done, Zojirushi, they do white rice, brown rice, short grain rice, congee, quinoa, porridge, slow cook, etc. they all have different cooking times.
So yeah, depends on the type of cooker and what kind of rice you’re cooking, and how much of it too.
I’ve done that before and it’s the most embarrassing shit ever. Like, I’ve sat doing my own thing for 30 minutes and it didn’t even cook… UGH.
I feel like I’m going to be one of the youngest ones here, but I am old enough to remember when installing things on your computer the window would be full screen and have a blue background.
(I was going to mention dial up, or renting from Video Ezy/Blockbuster, but they’re too easy and also my local Blockbuster went out in like 2016 or 2017?)
Has anyone been getting group spam texts? Like it’ll be the scammer and then one other person? It’s very weird, all the spam texts I’ve gotten in the past has just been one person until this week and now it’s like group ones.
Hmm, that’s not too bad. Optus is 5gb for 45 days which I don’t use up (only time I do is if I accidentally forget to turn on wifi while I’m watching YouTube or TikTok). But I might look into it, thank you!
I’m actually sick of Optus. I’m still pissed that like my data gets leaked but all I get is a :c soz bro. But they have cheap credit, which is $30 every 45 days, and I get a butt load of calls and text. So I guess if anyone has other recommendations for either similar price and offer or cheaper that’d be nice.
Though I do refuse to go to Vodafone because they too screwed me over years ago and I can hold a grudge.
I love it when people scream free speech. Like yeah buddy, you do have free speech. But I also have free speech to tell you you’re being a cunt!
Welp, good thing I’m not with Optus regarding the Internet. Now phone service…
I let my boss know, I should be able to get an uber to work, but I can’t receive any calls or text which will be fun when I go home. I’ll have to order the uber while in the office because the wifi doesn’t extend very far.
I feel like I missed out on something. There was a Neo-Nazi instance? Not surprising I guess, but whoa.
Welp, the clothes on the line are now wet. I should’ve brought them in earlier. Oh well.
FUCK YEAH! CONGRATULATIONS DOCTOR!
