Good luck for the move, and thanks for sharing the country life with us. Loved all the posts, living somewhat vicariously.

A good start would be a clean-up of the guiding principles the media has to follow. Yanno, unbiased facts, not paid for opinions at the behest of the political paymasters.

Given toxic tentacles of the Atlas Network in New Zealand, pertinent advice from a vital column: “These junktanks are like the spike proteins on a virus. They are the means by which plutocratic power invades the cells of public life and takes over. It’s time we developed an immune system.”

And how do we appeal to the media to stand up for us and not sleepwalk us into a nightmare not of our making.

Helps to notice 1 paw not 2 (and that they're actually paws not fingers). 🫣

On the basis that: •Tabby is worth 10 •If tabby is worth 10 then cream worth 5 •If cream worth 5 then fingers worth 2 •Mathematical rules of operation say multiplication and division come before addition and subtraction BUT I have imagined the parentheses, so it may be wrong?

Not a fan of the phrase I was today years old, but I really was today years old when I found out that thingee's eye falling out on live TV was an urban myth! 😵‍💫

I was impressed that the EU is threatening to walk away from #COP28    unless a better deal is agreed, until I learned the US, UK, and Australia are all saying the same.

If *they're* saying it, it must be far worse than bad.

Many comments said the poll was rigged. That it sat on 70/30 for forever despite how many people voted. He is a seriously weird dude.

If anyone is going via Wairarapa this Gregorian holiday season let me know. For a koha we would be happy to take you around and do a tour. An unofficial tour before we start launching some tours. Hit me up if keen.

Went to the Modern Meiji exhibition at The Asia Society in NYC a few weeks back and this embroidered (EMBROIDERED!!!) screen haunts me. It's about 6' tall and it's silk embroidery (over 250 shades of thread!!) on undyed silk. I thought it was a painting until I was close enough to se the threads.

Wild. Turns out that in 1972 when I was a baby about starting solid food, comet 46P brushed Jupiter knocking off debris, and on Tuesday night we'll have a meteor shower from passing through that debris field.

What i most enjoy about Bishop being in cabinet - he’s finding out really quickly that being in opposition and sniping from the sidelines and telling big fucking lies doesn’t have any accountability as such, but doing it when you’re in government, sort of does.
