Of course, the NZ Govts other reason for privatising everything? You can't lodge OIA requests with privatised bodies. There is no longer any proper accountability or transparency.

Doing "at home tourism" we caught the ferry from St Kilda across the bay to Williamstown for fish n chips.

On the way back the captain detoured a few minutes south to this channel buoy with four Australian fur seals chilling on it. Definitely an unexpected treat.

Okay Americans it's really embarrassing and not at all great that you've only got two geriatrics as candidates in your presidential race. However, I think your press should be hounding the one with no moral compass. So Joe is a bit sleepy, but Donald is way more than sleazy, he's a blatant fascisti!

Rushed to library hoping to get study space to take a vc call; too late to get to office. Study rooms available to school students only. (I kinda liked that. Not many other perks at that age.) Instead offered a meeting cabinet - small, sound proof πŸ‘ŒπŸ½!

i have largely stopped arguing about this on social media because it isn’t fruitful, but this finding gets to why you should be skeptical of theories that try to sideline or excise race from an explanation of the white rural turn toward reactionary politics news.cornell.edu/stories/2024...

Armadillos manage to kill or injure people just from ricocheted shots at a rate of about 2 a year. Their crime is being bullet-reflective. 😁

I keep seeing this BULLSHIT going around so: - they are totally harmless to humans - they're gonna eat spotted lanternflies (which is a good thing)! - Many, many species of spiders "fly". Young spiderlings throw their threads up into the air and catch a ride on the wind it's called ballooning.

My family couldn’t have afforded all the books I read as a kid. Those books are a big part of why I am where I am today. LIBRARIES are a big part of why I am where I am today. Libraries are engines of upward mobility. Libraries are a path to the American Dream. Of COURSE rich people hate them.
