There's something so diabolical about media outlets going, “You won't believe how different this actress looks today!”

Aging happens. Relax everybody.

MS Paint sticky notes are indeed very funny. As seen on AliExpress.

Is there anything you'd like to know about: video creation and editing, livestreaming, podcasting?

If yes, I'll do a livestream this week.
If not, I'll sleep in.
You choose.

What do you mean the religious grifter's last name is literally “Dollar”?

No amount of logic will ever overcome the hysteria of “Won't somebody think of the children?!”

this scam is particularly effective because the scammers imitate Michael’s standard email greeting: “I’m Michael Hobbes - yes, THAT Michael Hobbes.”
Scam alert: Someone is pretending to be me and reaching out to authors. The pitch contains enough specific details that it sounds plausible at first.

This is not me! I'm so sorry to anyone who has fallen for this.

At some point you realise the people you were trying to impress aren't actually worth impressing.

A lot of social media algorithms just feature things from people you've never heard of, yelling things for which you have no context.

And I'm like WHY?

And they're like, "Just because. Also it's popular for some reason."

There's this right-wing pundit schtick where people will go, "I'm a Liberal, but the Liberals have gone too far!"

And I can't go a whole week without hearing someone say something like, "I'm an introvert, but if I'm not around loud people all the time I get sad."

Honey, you're not an introvert.

There is a podcast titled "Doing It At Home" and I would defy anybody to try to guess what it is about without looking it up. 🤣

“Just say Justin Timberlake at the VMAs, Peter.”
This is how I sound to normal people when I talk about like 97% of the things I see on here

Sometimes if something is inexpensive, and I don't really know what I need, I'll get a lot of them.

Anyway suffice it to say I now have a lifetime's worth of microphone stand adaptor connections.

I hate waking up every day and having emotions. It's so exhausting.

I'm very happy editing in DaVinci Resolve these days, but I started with something called Microsoft Movie Maker. And when it crashed for the 300th time in one day, I drove to a computer store and purchased Vegas Movie Studio

I haven't used it in probably over a decade but it still exists.

There are many reasons to not buy a Blue Yeti microphone, but what genuinely blows my mind is how expensive they are in 2025.

If you're going to drop this much cash, get a Shure SM58.

Prices in Australian dollars. Screenshot taken from Officeworks website.

We live in such a cursed timeline.
