    Office setup. Bought that stand at @officeworks a few years back for $70. It’s a pain to configure, but it’s nice to be able to stand up for a bit. https://t.co/Mc5XpVCUzb https://t.co/OxiyUyy5rI


    @hitsthings There are always giant bowls of them in conference meeting rooms


    RT @nocontextomens: and remember to stick to social distancing, unlike a certain angel and a demon i could mention 👀 https://t.co/DFPM2h6lhy


    @gilmae LOL. Poor Magic Mouse is on his last, uh, legs tbh. Chews through batteries and has a habit of disconnecting from Bluetooth multiple times a day.


    Just want to give a shoutout to @JaycarAU for great service today! I needed a lapel mic on short notice, and they were able to deliver to my house in under two hours and I didn’t even have to step outside. Pretty awesome. 👏

    Meh, I know I’m being a little uncharitable, what with people printing respirators and such. I know folks mean well. I just thought that reply was 🔥 and so, so on point.


    @The_McJones “Spent a few hours working on a schematic for a new bio containment unit…” vs “printed out and taped together a pattern for a blouse.” 😂


    @turzaak Oh no, they do. A non-trivial number of men love to tell me about Jacquard looms, despite the fact that I’m a knitter and a coder and I’ve given entire tech talks on the topic. It’ll happen. You can set your watch by it.


    Can’t believe it took me a full week of WFH to realise I could knit during VC meetings… https://t.co/nZefZzkwHW


    @twasink @Reidyd I don’t knit nearly as much as people think I do these days, truth be told.

    @julielerman We were a mere 5 years later! Granted, “streaming” meant a very tiny, blurry Windows Media Player file… 😂


    One good thing today: Petey’s radioactivity has gone down enough that he can sit on us and have cuddles again! (His poo is still dangerous for another week though.) https://t.co/h49VOX29C8 https://t.co/RhhoF11y3x


    RT @tobyhede: Nothing says “these rules were made by men” like limiting haircuts to 30 minutes


    @gilmae This thing where you are up past 10pm is definitely the weirdest part of quarantine.


    @gilmae The only thing keeping me from going full cave-dwelling nocturnal Gollum is the daily team video checkin at 8:30.


    Given my current level of disillusionment with most politicians, today’s hat choice was an easy one. 😾✊ https://t.co/IjlpeHDWRn https://t.co/Q9ONsGCNcZ

    @mseckington It’s quilted to look like knitting??! That’s AWESOME


    Every time a random, crappy, entitled recruiter spams me on LinkedIn, I appreciate more and more how great the folks are at @LookaheadSearch. (Unsolicited endorsement prompted by random entitled spammy recruiter.)

    😍 So happy to see my @oooobysyd box on the doorstep today! If you’d like to get fruit & veg delivery – and support a local biz – you should sign up. $20 off if you use my code GMMLGX https://t.co/osl5ZMGHAk https://t.co/SjJNaOyMH8


    @gilmae I think I get a $10 credit. But I’ve also chipped in an extra $10 on each order which they’re using to provide free boxes to folks who are out of work, etc. So consider it a freebie.


    RT @the_snook: @web_goddess @OooobySyd I have never in my life been so excited to see a potato.


    @WheelieGoodGame I’m okay. Turns out that getting a good night’s sleep makes a massive, massive difference. How are you??


    @notsolonecoder That’s not even a dark pattern… it’s just a stupid pattern. 😳


    @stevelikesyou @LookaheadSearch Ugh. It’s very frustrating. “I see there are roles in Brisbane.” “I’m in Sydney, not Brisbane, so I’m not the hiring manager.” “So how about you introduce me to whoever is?” Yeah, no. I find it mindblowing that people would just demand strangers intro them to colleagues.

    Started watching the 1967 David Niven “Casino Royale,” and that nonsense was INCOMPREHENSIBLE. (And weirdly racist towards Scottish people??) So we gave up in favour of the obvious… https://t.co/lqghZC4AjJ


    I sewed myself a T-shirt today. Nothing special; just a plain red vee-neck. But hey, it kept me from reading the news. https://t.co/YIESQMQfYO https://t.co/N8wdd32aTu


    @rikkiends A free pattern, in fact! The Mica T-shirt from Leila Jeyne Patterns: https://t.co/1VDRTNNQ4g. Knits can be tricky, but I found them much easier once I got an overlocker. I still struggle with the hems though.


    @rikkiends Once you make one, it’s incomprehensible how cheap they are sold given how much work is still involved. Somebody is being paid very little to make the ones in the shops. 😕

    RIP Kenny Rogers. (Last night the Snook and I debated whether the Gambler dies in the song. This morning I found the Muppet Show version, which definitively answers the question. Also SUPER WEIRD to see a Muppet smoking!)

    You guys – my sister is a baker and she just invented Corona virus cake pops. 😂 I wonder if I could get pop rocks delivered?? #ronapops https://t.co/hMnfSemovM


    We are incredibly fortunate to be able to cook tasty food when the world is crazy. The Snook made pressure cooker beef ribs (that involved 1.5L of wine!!) that we paired with my cauliflower mash and zucchini, as well as zucchini bread for dessert. SO GOOD. 🍷 https://t.co/RHFDm9th24


    @shermozle https://t.co/5ELpropQVv We used cask wine and port. So delicious!

    @gilmae 🤔


    End of day VC catchup with team, and in unthinking desperation for any conversation that isn’t virus-related I asked one of the guys if he’d caught any Pokemon lately. Sadly, he confirmed that COVID has been “a big cramp on the Pokemon lifestyle…” 😂 Best laugh I had all day.


    “Make Do and Mend.” 18yrs ago I moved to Oz, and since I couldn’t yet get a job, I hand sewed a quilt from old shirts and bedsheets. I was really proud of it. Over time some of the fabric started to wear through, so tonight I added the first patches… #visiblemending https://t.co/OeefZ8xDBS

    @girlgerms @notessensei Hey @knitterjp it’s your fave phrase!


    Trying to decide if my stubborn dedication to ratting on @GoGet users who don’t leave 1/4 tank in the car makes me an overly sanctimonious jerk or the last bulwark of common decency in these troubled times.
