After all that stuff about that child abuser at the childcare and watching the doco on Taskforce Argos I’ve been slowly listening through the 6 part podcast Hunting Warhead about one of the biggest website infiltrations, and it’s amazing because it’s about the whole story and all the people involved - the Danish journalist investigators, the Queensland police, a housemate of the perp who was physically there when he was arrested… but this episode where they’ve interviewed an older cousin of the main perp… Whoa. Far out. Nothing graphic at all but I need a hot shower now. That catastrophic breach of trust… oh lawd and now they’re going to interview the guy himself…

It’s really shocking that they were able to interview the guy and how completely blasé he was about it

The range of interviewees is amazing.

E: I cannot believe what this guy is saying. Fortuitously, the cat has chosen to cuddle in bed. Soul bleach…

E2: wow this guy is unbelievable. This is like the worst stereotype of a mentally fucked basement dweller who thinks he’s better than everyone else.

Last night I sold a really important piece of music equipment to upgrade to the better version (Line 6 Helix). Now the new one is sitting at my feet looking amazing and sounding incredible.
Bad news is I was sweating like an animal at work today from being sick so I went home after a client meeting I had to attend.

You win some, you lose some.

Sounds like an overall win - the sickness will hopefully pass soon but a new bit of kit feels great!

Thank you :) Just had a smash now and it feels awesome. Having these little lcd screens indicating the status of various parameters makes life so much easier.

Dinner was neoguri ramyun again, but this time with a tin of herring fillets added at the end, plus a generous tablespoon of mayo to ficken up the juices. Slurping noises may have been heard. 4.5 yums out of 5 - almost as good as restaurant ramen.

Ho shit. Went to restart my Netflix membership and they’ve eliminated the $11.99 per month tier so the cheapest without ads is now $16.99.
Ha ha ha no.
