@mattallen Yep, she also sent video. Not far off.
@webprofusion Ah thanks. Didn’t even notice that bit! (Plumber already out to address the blocked exterior drain pipe.)

I knew you all were getting some serious rain in Sydney, but didn’t realise how bad it was until Kelly Vincent sent this photo of rainwater pouring through the air conditioner in our old bedroom! 😱😭

#AWSInnovate is happening right now! And yay, this is the part where I have to say “CodeGuru Reviewer” like 5x in a row. 😂 https://t.co/ywB2yIj1gg https://t.co/i0ydb9wNK2
RT @ehealthresearch: Not bragging or anything.
But.
We have brilliant #womenintech at AEHRC.
Thanks for recognising these two particular…
@jcguan Wait, really? I think I’ve been annoying people then!! 😱
Ahhh, now I see what the knitters are all talking about. I wish I could say this was the first time I’ve seen some arrogant startup with zero understanding of the community claim they were going to solve nonexistent problems… but it’s not. 🍿🧶 https://t.co/qp3Fhzyp6J
Me: “So the big knitting news today is two startup guys who think—“
Rodd: “Is it the thing where they want to rent people knitting patterns? Because I know that one didn’t go well…” 😂

Huh. Just made the connection with @darkosubotica’s Twitter name! https://t.co/NkuNYr9D2t
@JustinRThiessen Now that things are opening up, hoping to get in a visit during the first half of the year if I can!
@isahuerga I remember my cousin had that game for NES, and it BLEW MY MIND that the game actually saved your state even after you turned it off. 🤯
@randomknits HA! We have an order pending for booze right now too.
Reminds me of how, working in a knitting shop, I’d be asked 10x a day “How many balls of wool do I need to knit a scarf?” Eventually I got tired of explaining the many, many variables involved and just started saying “4. You need 4 balls.” https://t.co/jJwyjfsM5m
@windblewinn Only when it’s a Doctor Who scarf, maybe. 😂
@JennaPrice No, not deliberately. Sometimes we work it out afterwards, like when there were only two votes in Chippendale for the Pirate Party. 😂
Me: “Tomorrow is 22-2-2022, you know.”
Rodd: “Shall I wear the bone, the white, the off-white, the ivory, or the beige?” 🤔#RichieBenaudDay

With great power comes great responsibility…
The fourteenth (semi-)annual Web-Goddess Oscar Contest has officially launched! 🎉 And this year you can win your very own set of Spider-Monkeys so you can act out scenes from No Way Home (or the meme!)
Each is crafted from a pair of Spider-Man socks, with felt eyes appliquéd. See? They’re very similar, but all slightly different. You can call them Peter 1, Peter 2, and Peter 3 if you like. (They’re a bit simpler than my original idea, but it turns out that the only person that wants a dirty, sexually repressed, toxically masculine Benedict Cumbermonkey is me.)
Entries are now closed!
The 2022 Academy Awards happen on Sunday, March 27th (California time), which is like 2am here. So I’ll cut off entries a few hours beforehand when I go to bed, and you’ll have to wait until I get up in the morning to find out who won!
