    📺 Finished watching Fisk (Season 3, 2024) ★★★★★

    A rectangular image with a review of the television series Fisk (Season 3). The show poster is on the left and the review on the right side. Across the bottom is a rating of Poor Okay Good Great with Great selected. The review reads: What’s not to love about this Australian comedy. The cast play off each other so well and the writing is full of comedy gold, some of it delivered in a delightfully dry way. Easily a show you could watch more than once and still be laughing. Like the previous seasons, the guest cast is full of familiar Australian comedians and actors helping to deliver the laughs.

    Thinking about the environmental impact of printing and distributing this unwanted directory makes me cranky. The directory can be recycled but the plastic bag it was inside can’t be.

    Just found a combined Business and Government white and yellow pages for the Brisbane Inner-City Southern Region in my mailbox. How are these even still are thing?

    I haven’t received a white or yellow pages in years and I actually thought they were no longer being printed.

    After all the rain recently the Brisbane river is very much living up to its brown snake nickname.

    New pin getting an outing today and yes I’m wearing a check jacket with a check shirt. Come at me 😀

    An enamel badge of Astro Boy, the manga character. It’s pinned to a blue check jacket and a dark check shirt is visible under the jacket.

    Thirty years since Star Trek: Generations was released in cinemas. One of the few movies I’ve lined up to see at the opening session. 🖖🏻

    Pretty good and cheap transit in from Melbourne airport as always.

    Wheels down at 17:23 -> taxi to gate -> walk outside and straight on to the Skybus ($24) -> free tram ($0) -> short walk ($0) -> at hotel in the city at 18:48.

    📺 Finished watching The Penguin (2024) ★★★★

    A rectangular image with a review of the television series The Penguin (Season 1). The show poster is on the left and the review on the right side. Across the bottom is a rating of Poor Okay Good Great with Good selected. The review reads: I thoroughly enjoyed this. Set immediately after the end of the 2022 Batman movie it’s completely stand alone and you don’t need to know anything about Gotham, Batman or any other bit of the DC universe. I described it to people as gritty. A few odd moments in terms of his relationship with his mother were the only parts I thought could’ve been done differently. I definitely didn’t see the ending coming but on reflection it was very much in keeping with the story arc and the development of the character into the Penguin.

    🫠 Afternoon walk along the river aka unintentional weight loss program given it’s still 34° at 5pm

    One of the big four Australian banks declares a $7b profit in the middle of a cost of living crisis but watch the media obsess for another week about flight upgrades for the PM and how out of touch it makes him.
