  • Here late at night to whine about our late night public transport service. Last year I went to the /r/brisbane art show at Woolloongabba. I live in St Lucia, which is a convenient bus trip through the busways away. But after that event, I ended up walking ~4 km home because the buses were not operating at that time through the busways, and instead I would have had to take a different (much less frequent) bus into the CBD, followed by a walk, followed by another (infrequent) bus home.

    Tonight was the next time I was at the Gabba since then. And again I've ended up walking home because an hour-long walk still managed to be faster than the massive detour via the CBD (and significant delay waiting for once-hourly buses).

    It has a fucking stupid name, but assuming they don't end up cutting back on their promises even more than they already have, the Brisbane Metro should be such an enormous boon to our public transport service.

  • Got a flac copy of the Doom Eternal Soundtrack. Been listening to it while travelling, doing chores, and what not. Current favourite track is Cultist Base. Composed by Mick Gordon, who is an Aussie composer, so bonus points.

    Shame about the controversy surrounding the production and release of the music though. Music still goes hard.
