Gosh this got shared more than I expected. Dets here if you want to know more

A fresh vaccine dropped in nz this week so if you’re due a booster go get one!

I really didn’t expect it to all happen so fast. 30 mins from “oh there’s a chunk missing bottom right?” to a VERY dark night

I forgot this was happening and rushed out with the camera so quickly I forgot my glasses and could actually see it better on the camera screen than IRL until rob went and fetched them for me 😂

Rob: can you see it?
Me: I can see TWO eclipses!

Looked very cool IRL once I had functional eyes

nearing total eclipse

Middle exposure & +3stop exposure

A mostly eclipsed moon on a black sky. Just a sliver of moon visible top left and it’s mostly red.

Eclipse looks bloody great from Auckland. Amazingly clear night for it.

Open social media to chat to friends, see deeply upsetting news article, close social media, open book.

And endless cycle these days.

The state of the world is a lot. Please enjoy the low stakes household politics, where Gus attempts to befriend Bernard and gets resolutely ignored.

A black cat is perched on top of a cat tower. One paw rests on a glass window, one paw is held daintily loose. He stares intently in to the blue sky.

Everyone is loving cicada season around here

Some Tupperware containers filled with liquid brown mush on a kitchen bench, next to an open sachet of cat food being held upright. A black cat is half climbing the side of the kitchen bench, with pupils wide, ears pricked forward. He’s studying the bench activities closely.

Bernard has recently discovered Dine Melting Soup sachets. To say he is a fan would be an understatement. Advance warning tho, they have a STRONG scent. Like the name implies, this is an almost entirely liquid sachet. 95% comprised of every cats favourite part.

That is one of my favourite plays. So immensely silly

AI SREs are framed as nameless job automation; Coding Assistants as named partners.

The framing used to create these products reveals a lot about how the builders and buyers perceive these roles. I also write about the challenges and risks of picking self-limiting analogies in building systems.

Really really hoping Tapbots come through soon. They took a very understandable break tho so it’s zero pressure. But I dream of that release

Queer romance? But also extremely descriptive food tour of Europe? I’ve never read such deliciously described food in books before.

I went blueberry picking! Delightful experience!

Almost everything that grows well is a weed and I dunno how to not spread it if I mulch or compost it??? How do people do that or do they just not care or do they bake it in more sunlight than is reasonable. Tell me all the garden secrets pls 🙏🏻

💯 I was trying to work out what everyone does with it all and I now realise they just quietly burn it midweek while all the weekend bach owners are back in the CBD

I am learning this lesson in our first summer with a proper giant garden. How does it all go to shit so darn quickly?!

Sometimes you hear something and it sounds SO TRUE all you can do is stop and stare for a minute. Like a fourth wall break but it’s just life. Ooof this is a bit real.

We have the Nissan e-nv200 - small 7 seater van. We’re planning to upgrade it to the 40kwh battery (it has the tiny 25kwh atm). It’s a great little car.
Definitely more of the utility type car body styles are missing from the EV range. We spent a long time deciding and even this one was a compromise

I’ve been thinking of you and your whānau since I saw the weather warnings start 💖 a really tough night for you

This was heart breaking to watch tbh

Excuse me I had a spider the size of my PALM climb up the duvet and I noticed it when it’s little feet touched my chin

Since moving rural I have learned about critters I didn’t know exist here. My squeal has been well utilised in the last 10 months 😂

I just realised I haven't shared the best TikTok video on here since I left the other platform!

It reduces me to TEARS laughing every single time

Auckland today is what I imagine it would feel like to be a dumpling in a steamer basket.
