What is even the point of asking me for my preferred method of contact if you're just going to ignore whatever I put and ring me regardless?

New modelling shows renewable electricity can meet NZ’s future demand – without importing gas New Zealand could meet its electricity needs through renewables and avoid power shortages during dry years by combining battery systems with pumped hydro schemes.

#NZpol From a few days ago: New modelling shows renewable electricity can meet NZ’s future demand – without importing gas

- doubts the logic of “imposing a levy on electricity to fund an LNG terminal”, “because New Zealand also has a goal to achieve 100% renewable electricity generation by 2030,”

Laughing at the McDonald's vid with the CEO eating the product

Everyone in the comments wondering how anyone could greenlight that video

Guys, have you seen how many memes there are of it??

They know what they're doing

Annoys me when people at work ask for a "final draft" of something

What do you want? The final approved version or a draft?

Does it need to be formatted?

So far this corner of the garden has claimed: a Camellia tree, 2 kākābeak bushes, 3-4 blueberry bushes (separate occasions), and nearly took the kōwhai tree (it made a miraculous recovery despite being convincingly dead)

A mostly dead blueberry bush, with dried up and curled brown leaves

Why does everything I plant in this corner of the garden always die?! 😭

RIP blueberry bush

YES - I've been feeling this a lot lately

And all the books I've been reading haven't felt like complete books. I'm surprised when I'm suddenly at the end and need the next one

It's like the author wrote one big story and chopped it into 3 segments without any thought to pacing or anything

“Privatisation of state housing land is a bad idea,” says Vanessa Cole, spokesperson for Public Housing Futures. “ Selling off land to investors and land-bankers will only deepen the housing crisis by reducing the land that could be used to build more state housing.”

A small kowhai bonsai in a blue rectangular pot. It has slender branches and small leaves

Finally got around to putting my kowhai into a bonsai pot, after leaving it to it's own devices in a training pot for years

Now it's starting to actually look like a proper little tree!

I saw bitter melon at the supermarket today and because I'd never tried it and it looked interesting I decided to buy and cook it

I will not be trying it again.

WOW 🤯

The number of times a State of Emergency has been declared this year in New Zealand ALREADY matches the 2025 total.

It’s February.

This is what the Climate Crisis looks like.

A glass for the risotto and a glass for me 🍷

With fresh herbs and tomatoes from the garden - heaven

I bought a device for stretching on (backpod) which I've only used a couple times so far and it's already been insanely helpful. If you have a desk job and find yourself hunching forward all the time I do recommend it

Lol rotisserie chicken was a common meal for us when I was young and poor. A cheap and easy meal when you didn't have time to cook, it fed the whole family for days

this was done intentionally - multiple ministers including Willis & Seymour bragged about how many jobs they’d cut in the first 12 months of their government. the reserve bank literally said it wanted unemployment up to control inflation. as with so many other policies this term, it’s social murder

My partners family has been using a homeopathic vet for years without realizing

We were all so angry when we found out. The poor cat had been suffering for ages with a throat tumor and didn't get relief until they realized and switched to a real vet

🌱🇳🇿I'm having problems growing courgette and the Internet isn't giving me answers

I have only female flowers 🌻

It seems people usually have the opposite problem and the advice is to wait and it'll sort itself out

I've been waiting. It's been months. It has not sorted itself out

What's wrong??

This should be headline news across every outlet in the country. This deal happening in secret - let alone directly involving us in a fascist war machine - should be criminal, fuck.

I have similar problem where Google maps tells people they can get to my house by going down the wrong driveway which takes them to the back of my house and is impossible to access my house from. It's very annoying for deliveries
