The Gen-X urge to exit light and enter night.
I do have a cousin Mark but, alas, not that one.
I didn’t realise it was released that early. I didn’t discover the band until 1989/90. Now I shall listen to Talk Talk on repeat for at least 10 days.
I still have my tapes in a drawer somewhere…
It’s so frustrating seeing articles today abt the Govt’s upcoming infrastructure announcement. They killed plans & funds for fixing parts of our infrastructure and now will be pretending they are the only ones who know how bad things are.
We know how bad it is & that they’ve made it worse!

If Labour wants to be truly game changing, they’ll dump Hipkins and run a campaign that works strategically with the Greens and not against them.
Who do they think this “game changer” 🙄 is going to appeal to?
As far as I can tell, yep. So far he’s complained that he _is_ actually wfh, has shared a playlist and released a statement about Tim Shadbolt’s death.
How many events from Dec/Jan will Luxflakes claim he “doesn’t know about” when he finally reappears?
My bet is all of them.

Enough space for stupidly large plugs?
School camp in the foothills of mount hutt. Sun, birdsong and peace. Very good for the soul.
Luxflakes once again showing the strength of his Christian values.
Our Govt are a bunch of cowards. The decision to not recognise Palestinian statehood is wrong.
Certainly explains why he is very comfortable publishing all sorts of “evidence” against Sara Templeton and left leaning Council candidates.
Ugh. I hadn’t seen that news, I’m out East.
Yep and watch him get returned to CCC this year.
Sigh
And boys will just be boys…
Yep, yep, yep, and yep
Pretty sure that neurotypical isn’t as typical as currently assumed.
Oh yes plus eating disorders, high maintenance, maths genius, singular focus …
Yep, my family was/is like this. Only now realising the strong line of (assumed) neurodivergence as majority of the next gen in the family has been formally diagnosed.
Always had aged relatives described as lazy, abrupt, underachiever, oversharer etc. now seeing them in new light.
I need to read the full details when the proposed legislation is released. Some good things thus far:
no need to define a day or a week
clear payslip
accrual from day one
I'm surprised at how few issues I can find with the proposed replacement to the Holidays Act. Having spent 3 long years working in a remedition/rectification project I know how awful the existing legislation is.
Pro rated sick leave = bad. Niggling concern re commissions but need to think further.
I guess so too. Poor kids, almost 4 years of being isolated from everything and everyone they know.
I hope they find the three kids soon and they get all the support they need.
It is the only right and proper response.
This is why men shouldn’t be in leadership roles, they’re just too emotional.
The face of a dog who would like you to know that depriving her of toast is the worst.
She loves toast.
Yep and still a citizen of AoNZ.
Ugh
