Cheerleaders 2018

I once saw a bird sitting on a disgarded thong about 70nm from land once, that was unexpected.

Tons of whales/dolphins/seals. The previous patrol before I got on the ship had a crocodile swim down the middle of the boat when leaving Cairns. But ‘weirdest’/coolest thing was a hammerhead shark. I was a trainee so was stuck looking out the window, when I thought there was a log floating in the water (see heaps of those). Only once it got close to the bow did I realise it was a hammerhead.

To be fair he was probably utterly mystified by how he ended up stuck suffocating in a giant dry bucket.

Well, that’s even worse than the birds I’ve had fly across the front of me on the moto!

I was on the bridge wing of an oil tanker in the Persian Gulf, looked down and there was a giant Ray of some kind swimming around.

So no epic battles between Blue whales and giant squid?

Not that I saw but that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Given the depths that giant squid live at I’d say that humans would stand next to no chance of witnessing this fight.
I guess it could explain why giant squid occasionally wash up though.

Did you ever see The Meg, and/or a wild Jason Statham floating around?

One of my boys is so polite when he speaks to our Google hub I’m pretty sure the machines will spare him when they take over.

Targeted advertising online really works on me, I just bought these Paris Olympics Aussie volleys, couldn’t resist. Apparently the Australian team will be wearing these at one of the Opening or Closing ceremony can’t recall which.

I’m working on a project at the moment, lots of consultants collaborating a shitload of documentation from structural, civil, hydraulics, electrical, etc.

They’re using a website called “Redhub” for document management. A Bing search gives you a search result with the first result being Redtube, the second is Redhub, and the third is Pornhub. Followed by pages and pages of Pornhub and Redtube pages.

Can anyone explain the whole Drake/Kendrick Lamar thing? Apparently it’s so bad that Drake’s security guard was just shot outside his house…

There was an article in the Guardian yesterday that explained it pretty well - probably a good place to start

I’ll just assume it’s the new East Coast vs West Coast and that Diddy is behind it all.

The impression I get is that Drake is seen as a corporatised poser by a good chunk of the rap world and seems to be a general piece of shit to boot. Kendrick is going at him for that. I have no idea how much of a piece of shit Kendrick is.

I believe this is another case of grown men writing poems to each other.

I’ve decided that I could not care less and that increasing my knowledge of the matter would be a complete waste of my time.

This is a sensible answer.

Just two bros writing poetry about each other.

The world is a fascinating place.

Yesterday I got a youtube short from some guy called Khaby Lame.

Fucking hilarious fella. Doesn’t say a thing.

Turns out he’s really, really famous and like Italia’s most followed toktikker!
