Me, running away from my problems.

Not sleeping, just guarding your stuff, I swear!

Doesn't bother me either, and agree moist cake (mm gluten-free orange almond cake) is a good thing.

It is very clearly "Monsters University".

Damn

Please quote post a picture where you were completely happy, and nothing else mattered but that moment.

If you weren't replying to a particular story, that comment could apply to a few MPs 🤮

You can pretty much guarantee he made a callous joke along those lines, when he redirected the funds.

And there's my trademark typo 😁

Fuelling me!

He cannot face any harsh realities, he has been too insulated from them. Unaware and doesn't care, sumshim up, along with his self-proclaimed wealthy and sorted.
I loathe him so much, he has no humanity.

Just had an "Of course!" moment. Luxon is always "comfortable" or "relaxed" about coalition MPs fucking up cos he is scared to deal with problems head-on. He's used to being very comfortable in life so won't do anything that risks his cushy situation. Dealing with problems is too hard for him #nzpol

Very much enjoyed this, long but worth it.

It seems very foolish of them to open the door to AI. Do they find it ethical for visual artists to have their work stolen so they can have an AI book cover but would claim it is unethical for AI to steal their works?

I have those exact socks and was wearing them yesterday, not for tramping but skating around the house 😁 They were a gift from one of my sisters. I ask for fun or soft socks for my birthday most years because I rarely wear shoes at home. These ones are so soft, I love them.

The last CRT we had weighed 97kg. It was delivered before the matching console. When the console turned up, it took three of us to lift the telly safely onto the console. Nearly burglar-proof.

Very nice

Guess in English there's we can do is smug cunt. I wonder if te reo has anything to describe that self-important smirk.

Mate in the UK asked me if I knew anything about Edmonds living in NZ. Sent him links to articles about how the locals loathe him.

Just been watching it. For all he says he doesn't comment on or worry about polls, he has really been putting the boot into Labour.
Also trotting out one of his tells "Isn't it great when..". This one is used to divert questioning from something that is not great at all. Uses it in the house often.

Really appreciated your work, it has helped me keep Covid safe and show people that the pandemic is still not over. Stats like Covid deaths exceeding the rod toll surprised many. Govt publicises work around reducing the road toll but deadly (literally) silence on Covid these days.

Heard about this on RNZ this morning. No one seemed to say anything about the ever increasing waiting lists for treatment or to even see a specialist 🤔 I wonder why people are on ACC for longer.

It certainly helped explain a lot of my past situational responses ☺️

Hoooo boy is this accurate. All of it.

But I love this bit: “…it isn’t bitterness. It’s clarity.”
