INANIMATE CARBON GOD

(because in 2026 what the Internet STILL really needs is a blog by a 50-something white man)

RIP Rob Hirst

In memoriam the man behind Midnight Oil and others, not only as the band’s drummer through its history but also one of its primary driving forces as co-founder and songwriter with Jim Moginie plus occasional lead vocalist. And man in pink overalls.

To avoid fainting, keep repeating, "it's only a blog... only a blog... only a blog..."

HOLY SHIT you're looking at INANIMATE CARBON GOD, the finest, if not the only, blog produced in Matraville, Australia since January the first 2023.

I'm James and I was born in 1974, so I'm old enough to know better by now. Yet I evidently don't. I write about whatever interests me. It may or may not interest you, and any opinions expressed here may or may not be the same as yours.

This blog is a non-commercial enterprise from which I make nothing. Any images, etc., posted here obviously remain the property of their creator(s) and no copyright infringement is intended. Have I posted something you own and you're not happy about that? Email me (see below) and let's avoid resorting to legal threats if we can.

The "About?" page will tell you more if you really want to know..

If you're inclined to discuss anything on here with me, please email me at jgwr@yahoo.com.
