  • Stephen Fry’s reading of Harry Potter is just the best.

    On a JK Rowling note. Her Cormoran Strike series (starting with Cuckoo’s Calling) under a different pen name is actually pretty great. It’s a modern day detective series with great personable characters. Very easy to listen to. Despite her crappy views, Rowling’s way of writing is very clean and simple so might fit your brief.

    I went back this week because I noticed narwhal 2 finally came out. I loved narwhal and we waited such a long time for the new app to come out. Outside of using Reddit in search engine results, I looked around with the new app. And people are so mean and rude on Reddit I forgot how toxic it can get there. Made me really appreciate lemmy.

    Narwhal 2 will eventually need to start charging. It was nice to finally get a glimpse of it because it goes paid.






  • Dating show called if you are the one. I got hooked on this for a while it’s pretty fun and insane to watch.

    There’s like 20women. They watch a short bio film of a bachelor. Lot of the times it’s so cringe its cute. They come out the panel of women fire some questions. They all vote yay or nay. If more yays than nay you stay. And you get to ask a few questions to the panel.

    Then there’s this on the spot tinder system where the guy has to pick who he likes. Through this process the women who likes the man needs to match with the man who swiped right on the women. Then if they match they get a date. It doesn’t happen often. And you get these love triangle that occur cos the man likes #6 but #6 didn’t like him. But #12 likes the man but he didn’t pick her. It’s great.

    It’s pretty crazy and fun. I recommend catching an an ep from an early season on YouTube.



  • This is very occasionally popping up in restaurants in Australia. Whether you live here or travelling. Do not tip unless they did something incredible. I’m talking the fish brought your grandma back to life and the chef reconnected you with your long lost father. We don’t want to encourage tipping culture. We want to increase minimum wage. It’s like $23 now and we need that to keep growing with the economy.
