Early 80s; very proud of my Wonderful Woman Underoos. Walking around in my older sister’s marching band boots to complete the outfit.

Someone needs to open a Cat Cafe in Hawkes Bay.
I went to Neko Ngeru Cat Cafe in Lower Hutt again this afternoon, so here are some cat photos for all my feline lovers.

If it is so irrelevant, then why would Cattle Futures drop dramatically after the news?

Kinda. There were 10,000 submissions for the flag referendum and it didn’t make it. It has since developed a cult following though.

The pagan-friendly Anglican church in my small, rural English village would have no problems with Episcopalians! Here, for example, is our vicar blessing a pagan Obby Oss (performed by my husband) before a Beltane procession: our annual pagan/Christian/all-faiths-and-no-faith May Day celebration.

Working to rule is hard as a teacher. Let’s say you only have time to prepare for some lessons for the week.
What do you do with the students during the down time? Which lessons do you prepare the materials for, the lessons that will keep the kids busy the longest or those with the most academics?

I really think a lot of New Zealanders don’t understand that US media isn’t just “polarised”; that there are huge swaths of seemingly reputable media sources that outright lie and omit facts that don’t match their narrative. If you don’t realise this it could be easy to be blindsided.

I know the post is about the housing; but imo the Amelia Earhart thing is because Purdue University is licking the boots of the current administration and this is a bone getting thrown to them.

What? You mean people who medically neglect their children have a much lower rate of their children receiving an autism diagnosis, which can only be done by the doctors that they refuse to take their children to see?
Who could possibly have predicted such a thing?
