  1. @samjthorpe So you are declaring you’ve lost, then? First Carlton, now you. A sad week.
  2. I am increasingly worried about technology that tries to control people's non-violent behaviour. What threat is a person talking loudly?
  3. “@oneweioranother: @converttoshape Have you seen this one? nytimes.com/interactive/20…” *No, I haven't. It is equally great.
  4. "Tell me, Mr Anderson, what good is a phone call, if you are unable to speak?" youtube.com/watch?v=4D7cPH… Shutup Gun in science fiction exposé.
  5. The Shutup Gun: the perfect tool for suppressing a populous. Why would you invent this? nytimes.com/interactive/20… Honestly, though: why?
  6. Love this: nytimes.com/interactive/20… If only the news looked that good all the time.
  7. Level 8, 180 Russell Street is flooding. We may have to evacuate the @IDLabTweets office! twitter.com/converttoshape…
  8. @Tara_Skye Done!
  9. @Tara_Skye Good. Can the eagle be being carried off by a roc?
  10. @Tara_Skye Don’t see any birds…
  11. @Tara_Skye Neato burrito. What's the subject going to be?
  12. @Tara_Skye You should go to Amanda! She's awesome.
  13. @FlickCM Because you ran. You ran so far away.
  14. @FlickCM Going to hold you to that: imagemmusic.com/media/58314/a+…
  15. @Tara_Skye Oooh that's a deep burn. Maybe I'll go cry tears all over my indelible mistake. PS, @MissEllenMay, we have to be divorced now.
  16. @oneweioranother Terrifying.
  17. @Tara_Skye Was going to suggest you submit to this the other day, but then realised you have one of those story less hipster tats. You mad?
  18. @oneweioranother I have never liked Eye. Or many design mags, actually.
  19. Wonder why many atheists despise religiosity? theage.com.au/technology/tec… Facing 18 months for mocking a fairy tale.
