He's a NZ citizen (he bought it and the right wing PM giggled), and he was wanting a NZ leather daddy to spank him hard.

Wow, remarkable skill development! thank you for doing this!

What a great skill to develop!

A less-known way that keeping hold of the gentailers can bring down power prices

Analysis: Asset sales are going to be a key feature of the next election, and Deputy Prime Minister David Seymour has made no bones about offloading the last 49 percent of gentailers Genesis, Mercury and Meridian, writes Edward Miller.

There are like 2 apartments near me owned by KO that are currently empty. The last time they shoved homelessness in empty spots it didn't work - they blocked the toilet somehow but didn't know how to navigate the maintenance system - need WRAP AROUND SUPPORT FOR SIX MONTHS. Otherwise don't bother

More like a 15% bump.

Simon Watts’ climate and fossil fuel hats sit uncomfortably Comment: New gas drilling turns New Zealand away from a future of clean, cheap renewable power in pursuit of a dirty, costly fossil-fuelled past.

Was Simon Watts yesterday replaced with an identical, gas-powered android?

It's the only way to understand him signing an agreement to help the Pacific transition away from fossil fuels at 1pm and then vote to transition NZ back to fossil fuels just two hours later.

Forecast 2-m temperatures today in Finland, based on the MEPS regional model.

20 straight days with 30 °C in Finland! Truly unprecedented heatwave still in full swing with maximum today about 32-33 degrees.

Even the Arctic regions (e.g. Sodankylä Tähtelä) have seen three weeks above 25 °C, and may rival tomorrow their August heat records.

The only alert was from Civil Defence - they broadcast an emergency alert to all phones in NZ on Wednesday afternoon.

I read a SM post about a woman who discovered Dark Matter.

Now, can a clever physicist confirm what I'm thinking; galaxies spin, but instead of stuff spinning off into, well space, stuff errr, stays in place. So that's gravity? Dark Matter? holding it into place. Right?

Looking good!

I'm sure it's on the tip of your tongue...

The problem? Arabs have never wanted a state. They've only ever wanted to kill all the Jews and erase Israel - a ONE state solution.

How do you spell misogyny? S I V E L L.

Importing people as if they are units just results in misery for them, and for us and it's not fair on anybody.

The only people who want to intentionally starve the Gazans are Hamas. To say otherwise is to support the perpetrator of all human suffering in Gaza: Hamas.

We need a Jewish JFK.

BREAKING

TODAY - As much of the country faces yet another damaging climate-fuelled storm – and amid a cost of living crisis – the Luxon government is pushing through changes to overturn the ban on new oil & gas exploration to MAKE THINGS EVEN WORSE.

top result when I searched 'covid cases nz' on google search. I'm on a Mac desktop.

Poster, with an image of a stylised bike with a voting tick in the front wheel, and a large faded question mark in the background, along with the text "Wouldn't it be nice to have... greater chances of connecting with friends and locals, Vote for Bikes, Cycling Action Network, Pae te haere maa pahikara".

Part of the cycling magic is seeing friends and locals while cycling around, and slamming on the brakes while calling out Kia ora! Hello! for a good 10 minute natter.

Wouldn't it be nice to have greater chances of that happening?

94% of teachers have had to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies. An estimated 1 in 6 have second jobs during the school year to make ends meet.

The average Wall Street employee got a record $244,700 bonus last year.

Something has gone terribly wrong.

Things were a bit loose back then. I remember researching them and my, the loose wording on some of them was interesting.

If I use my bank card I'll be expecting a 5% discount for doing so.
