Words can buzz and hum like insects in the air.

I'm not actually a cat. But that's a secret.

Tawatawa. Pōneke. Aotearoa.

"before Russia or China make their move." What the hell are they talking about? This is madness.

Hey, doesn't this sound just like the "Amazon data centre" Luxon promises us about this time every year, just after he gets back from Hawaii?

Things are grim right now but as a reminder of who we are and why we fight, this is the US Women’s figuring skating champion.

Wait. Drew McIntyre has finally won another WWE title?

I'm so out of the loop. Should probably pay more attention, etc, but, good on ya, Andrew.

I know so many Sarahs and almost as many Scotts.

They must've run out of names in the early-mid 70s.

And, in things that will undoubtedly come back to haunt me, my decision to roast some pork (I got a big slab of belly, with lots of skin, for a decent price) is really gonna make the kitchen / lounge very hot. And no chance on opening a window in this wind.

Hand to You Know Whomst, this is someone’s FB profile photo, and it’s the funniest thing I’ve seen all day.

How humid? This humid.

There used to be a wind turbine over there. There even used to be a hill.

Awww, I love living in one of Wellington's exposed places.

Right. So who of you is going to go down the supermarket and get me a bag of potatoes and a pork shoulder?

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Fine. I guess I'm going to just have to get out of bed, I guess.

Three Members of Congress showed up to inspect the actions of federal officers in their state and the federal officers drew their weapons?
JUST NOW: Huge mass of agents in a standoff, weapons drawn as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, and Kelly Morrison attempt to conduct congressional oversight at the Whipple Building, which has been HQ for thousands of ICE agents.

By the way, @manmademoon.bsky.social, I'm looking forward to "Moon II." Which will be a documentary, of course.

The most shocking thing is how unsurprising this is. All accepted norms of international and economic behaviour have been thrown aside. They knew those norms were ineffectual, and, boom. Here we are.

So, the state should stop paying their federal taxes, I guess.

Gosh.

I wonder where this could lead.
The US Department of Agriculture suspends all federal funding to Minnesota, effective immediately.

Yeah, the wind. It's already picking up. The windows are "breathing" in and out.

I think it's a bad sign that every major news media outlet has spent days asking whether or not murder is bad and how much child porn is an okay amount

This might sound trite or whatever but I'm serious. Every law enforcement officer should have to read, as part of their training, the Vimes sequence of Pratchett novels.

And write a thousand words bout what they took from them.

And those essays should be admissable in disciplinary hearings etc.

Huh. I shouldn't be suprised this RNZ Mixtape with Jon Bridges is playing so many of my favourite songs; we are of a similar age and similar background.
