In the few weeks leading up to having Kaia I spent almost all my time writing a series of features on how $CSL went from the ugly duckling of the privatisation era to the biotech giant it is today. Part one is out today: https://t.co/YtuEU8RBZK

I don’t post on X much these days, but this was worth a mention. Up on this week’s How I Made It podcast is my chat with @ROKT CEO Bruce Buchanan. As a teenager, he paid his own way through his final years of high school while sleeping on a friend’s floor: https://t.co/XUYAyEL8g6

@claudedwalker I wondered that too. My daughter coming home with horrific nappy rush one day was the last straw for me - I never sent her back.

Horrifying. After a month of constant red flags at a childcare owned by this same PE company, we changed centres and it was the best decision we could have made. Parents, trust your gut. https://t.co/ZeFBQtlQWv

Anyone else finding their iPhone 16 overheats for no reason?! Surely a phone shouldn’t get so hot it’s difficult to hold.

1. I don’t often tweet about my personal life, but on 1st November, my mum Jane was hit by a large vehicle as a pedestrian in St. Louis, USA. She suffered a severe brain injury & remains in a coma in hospital.

Here's Jane & me in happier times.

@jendudley Exactly right, I think it both aids and hinders me in some things. Tetris, I think, I’m pretty okay with… I haven’t played against someone who can visualise though to know 😂

This was a particularly enjoyable piece to write. Loved delving into the neuroscience of aphantasia: https://t.co/nBIlqIVSdA

Really proud of this one. Give it a read when you get a chance today - thanks to everyone who took the time to speak to me for it including @thelazyceo and @_Timdoyle: https://t.co/8kXThTl8e5

@julius_sky @bigyahu They’re certainly hoping to keep the business alive. Acquisition is one path, finding a new investor is another. Definitely still hope!

Drone start-up Swoop Aero hit turbulence when the tech market turned and investors started wanting it to get its drones to market faster to generate revenue quicker. Now, it's been placed in administration: https://t.co/4utRJllyv9

@trawg @NickyWill100 @sampendu @willjharrison Amazing, I’ll get in touch 🙏

[Yolanda Redrup @YolandaRedrup]

In 2020 I realised I had aphantasia when that meme about imagining a red apple went viral... thinking of writing a piece on it since so many people still haven't heard of it. Anyone else in my orbit also have it?! Would love to hear about your experiences...

[Yolanda Redrup @YolandaRedrup]

@ChrisChowShow That’s the one! I had gone my whole life not knowing other people could actually visualise things in their minds.
