Als Dรคnemark bei jedem verdammten US-Krieg seine Sรถhne und Kinder zur Unterstรผtzung geschickt hat, waren sie noch gute Alliierte... So schnell kann sich der Wind drehen.

I cannot live my life in a state of continual outrage. Requests for wisdom please.

Trying to see the bright side of โ€œmust doโ€ upping of expenditure on defence. Peace and the rule of law delivers amazing dividends. Are those days gone?

Wellington PT. Train to Featherston replaced by two buses. Then a connecting bus Feathie to Martinborough. Pretty awesome but it will be good to get the trains back. 6 week shutdown for track upgrades. Lovely countryside too.

The end of the hikoi at Taranaki Street was at 1130 am. 9 am-1130 am.

Reading the Times โ€œCourt Circularโ€ and the reference to the a royal visit to the Worshipful Society of Haberdashers in 2024 caught me short. Who knows what a haberdasher even is these days. Yes I do. But I am a woman of a certain age.

Paris SUV driver faces murder charge as cyclist โ€˜deliberately hitโ€™ Witnesses say Paul Varry, 27, was run over after remonstrating because the driver had entered the cycle lane and run over his foot

Even in poster child Paris the ( mostly male) rage at people moving around the city on zero carbon modes causes murder by car. Pretty disgusting context on what is really important in life.

Such a cool platform hopefully funded by the Musk purchase price. Capitalism โ€œ at workโ€.

Has anyone looked at the Accelerated Auckland Transport Projects ( John Key) ; State owned Enterprise sales funded project ( Bill English) ; Special Housing Areas ( Nick Smith) NZ UP ( Phil Twyford) ; Covid Fast track ( Jacinda Adern) for a few โ€œ fasttrack โ€œ project lists to see which are complete?

20 years ago there was a massive debate about a huge new powerline carving its way through scenic areas of the Waikato. To a Transpower director I said the reason people donโ€™t want a pylon anywhere near was that they look so ugly. I suggested we commission world famous artists to design pylons.

We have all had at least one of those โ€œ malfunctionsโ€ in our lives. Coulda bin worse.

Is it just me ? Noticing a lot of โ€œhelloโ€ and โ€œ welcomeโ€ by Air NZ air attendants and pilots and not many โ€œKiaOraโ€ . I use Te Reo Mฤori myself.

Wow I canโ€™t wait to see them โ€œin personโ€ . So proud to see these at the welcoming steps to our Parliament.

@wellingtonista.bsky.social so sad to see Cranfields closed down and Good Books in Jessie Street and just so many empty shops along the โ€œgoldenโ€ few miles.

I am triggered by chainsaws; my own PTSD caused by neighbours in urban Auckland who did not live at the house or NZ chainsawing down 10 100 year old native trees that hosted amazing native bird population incl Keruru. The council had removed all general tree protection as a result of govt policies.

Was at a masterclass of about 20 people on native plant regeneration yesterday. Seemed mostly all pakeha ( but who can tell these days). Two presenters ( pakeha) introduced themselves and greeted everyone in Te Reo Mฤori including a karakia. #radical #NAH
