This is Finny. He doesn’t go chasing waterfalls. He carefully studies their timing and arrives in advance. 14/10 very impressive (TT: jordancain70)

Revisited an old recipe:

- Your fave ravioli
- Chicken
- Pumpkin
- Creme fraiche and wholegrain mustard sauce
- Black pepper
- Parmesan cheese

Cook first three separately. Toss with the sauce. Add parmesan and black pepper.

I also added leftover pulled pork.

Surat Bay, Catlins, New Zealand.

NZ.

The Surat was a three-masted ship which hit a rock (causing hull damage) and was then deliberately beached on New Year's Day in 1874. Fortunately, all 271 passengers and 37 crew made it to safety.

Y'all give this some likes, because reading these lyrics like this, one after another after another - man, you'd think this Springsteen fella can *write*, wouldn't you?

Bruce, come back to New Zealand!
For every like, I'll share a Springsteen lyric I love.

Not sure if I'm doing this right, but I like it.

Said goodbye today to probably my fave childhood uncle. 40y in a wheelchair after a tornado slammed him into a van and broke his back, his body has finally given up.

Had to say goodbye via video call, 14000km away. Grateful my sister called in time, though.

So nobody told me about Peter Krause. Okay. We can still be friends. Maybe.

I know, I know. He's been around 'forever' - but I have never watched one of his series. (I know. I know. Head hung.)

But OMG *this era* Peter Krause? Captain Nash is *starting* fires.

Also, 9-1-1 is so damn good. #binge

WHAT a comeback, #BlackCaps !

Sri Lanka needed something like 52 off 40 balls when the first wicket fell.

New Zealand has won by 8 runs.

Love this game.

YES.

Took an obscene amount of time and effort to figure out how to get rid of Copilot.

I definitely don't want this, thank you very much.

Honestly, why do people do this?

And why do people fall for it?

Even if we live to be 100 years old, our entire lifetime is just a blink of an eye compared to Earth's 4.5 billion years of existence. Why waste our precious time on negativity and hating our fellow travellers who share this brief journey with us? Let's find joy instead.

So, I, uh, just binged The Jackal in two days, and, uh - yeah.

I'm gonna do this anyway, because lifting up women is always a good thing. As I'm so far behind, I'm just gonna do 20 whenever I have a minute.

20 female stars that bring you joy. Always. 1 per day, no explanations, just the name and a photo.

Bit behind on this and not sure if I'll do all 20, but I'll do a few of 'em anyway.
