    @lynnlangit Love those shades on you!


    @darthted I’m a big fan of my Withings Steel HR. Does the tracking things; has vibrations and notifications; but it looks like a watch and the battery lasts for weeks. (The silicone band sucks, but I got a nice 3rd party steel one on Amazon for like $20.)


    @darthted From Amazon as well. They ship from the US. Still ended up way cheaper than an Apple Watch. https://t.co/A5mDGdWyqY


    @darthted Forgot to mention: Nokia bought the brand but then later spun it off again, so you sometimes see them sold under Nokia name. Same watch though.

    @Malarkey What’s your favourite song? I had multiple of them stuck in my head for days.


    Today’s find from the depths of @the_snook’s office: a vintage Hornby locomotive set with a bunch of other train bits and pieces. Any takers? https://t.co/feApTkK9tU https://t.co/bmPOT7sQDf


    @twistieman @eduardo_lino @dev_nq I should clarify I haven’t actually done it myself, but @darthted did it for our last @SydTechLeaders and it worked really well!

    @randomknits At least you’re getting more wears out of it. 😂


    @randomknits Ugh. Relatedly, I tackled the most humiliating moving task on the weekend: trying on all the jeans to see which ones still fit. There are several pairs now going to the op shop. 🙃

    @igorlgentil What did you think? The movie version with Gary Sinise and John Malkovich is excellent.


    @jesslynnrose @sundress I was thinking about it at the grocery store the other day. Wearing a mask, with AirPods in, I felt so disconnected from the world, like a brain piloting around in a body-ship.


    @igorlgentil Never read it, but I stage managed a very interesting theatrical production of it in university!


    Tonight’s packing unearthed another old photo, this one from that brief time when my boyfriend was a tiny blond vampire. 🧛❤️ https://t.co/N6PlkA2Sqb https://t.co/TQHd2NfHjW


    He had blond hair because we’d gone as Buffy and Spike for Halloween 2003, and he liked it so much he kept it that way for some time. (By far our hottest couples costume ever!) https://t.co/NHh8Ri5AUa

    “It’s an Allan Border ‘Butter ’em up’ card! It came out of a packet of butter. I wonder what it’s worth these days on Ebay??”

    (The answer is 72 cents.) https://t.co/vQKwRHdWYW


    A giant stack of tea cards were also located. However, correction, half of them were actually from Weetbix packets. https://t.co/aVHlUHU5BC


    DAMN IT. With less than three weeks to departure, Australia has appeared on Germany’s list of High Risk Countries. Currently limited to just Victoria, but if NSW follows, we will have to quarantine when we get there. MASK UP NSW, COME ON. 😷 https://t.co/wN6OcLKlxN


    @DivZero_ Nah, when they opened the borders in June Australia wasn’t on the naughty list. 🙁


    HOLY SHIT. I feel like I’ve seen a ghost. My old 2001 iBook actually boots up! Had to use Rodd’s password as I’ve forgotten mine. 😂 Look at all those ports! Only website it’ll actually open is Google. (SSL certs break on every other site.) https://t.co/kvN0ETV0IN

    Me: The way this thing smells! It smells just like it used to! I’d know that smell anywhere!

    RT @jenistyping: “Why did you leave your last startup?”

    I recently saw some folks saying that they really struggle to answer this question…


    @steven_bryen I probably got the idea from a Webmonkey article. 😂 (FTR, I inherited that design. It didn’t take me long to completely redevelop it and get an actual designer to make it look presentable!)


    Rodd discovered months ago that nudism in Germany is called “Freikörperkultur” (free body culture), and as he thinks German compound words are hilarious, we say it all the time. A German friend then told us they abbreviate to FKK (“eff-kah-kah”), which is even funnier. 😂 https://t.co/2qfYlaBIrn


    It’s now our default inside joke about our future lives in Germany. “How many big winter coats do you think we’ll need? “EFF KAH KAH, KRISTY.” 😂

    Him: The box is full of stamps too!
    Me: WHAT?
    Him: See? I had 160 of them in 1980. I was only four years old!

    Him: Did little children in America not collect stamps?
    Me: No! Only in storybooks! From the 1950s!
    Him: You didn’t go to the shop and buy a big bag of stamps and soak them off and dry them and put them in albums?
    Me: NO. https://t.co/KZB91QTNxJ


    “This is the tool you use to measure the perforations.”

    Me: “Well, clearly I’m the cool one.”
    Him: “How many cool people were there at the spelling bee?”

    😂🤓😅


    Me, just now: So apparently all the Australian children collected stamps. You aren’t a giant nerd. Or else ALL the Australians I know are giant nerds. 🤔
    Him: We only had two television stations, you know…


    @emd3737 “Yet again confirmation,” he says, “that Boston is the NORMAL part of America. They speak properly… collect stamps…”
