Only 1/2hr after sunset, while taking a timelapse, this was happening in front of my camera (timelapse processing later).
This was about 1/4 of the #Aurora happening off the South Otago coast.

How to collaborate with the worst ppl in the world the right way - by ezra klein
Imagine trying to work across the aisle with people actively trying to hide the fact that the leader of their party is implicated in criminal activity by Jeffrey Epstein himself

Look, Donald Trump may have had a lengthy, well documented friendship with America’s most famous pedophile, and he may have spent decades giving quotes like “if there’s one thing I love, its beautiful girls—young ones, too,” but I just need 4-5 more drops of damning evidence to buy these accusations

JUST IN: Katie Wilson significantly extends her lead in the Seattle mayoral race.
She now leads Mayor Bruce Harrell by 1,346 votes, or 0.5%.
That's up from the squeaker-lead of 91 votes in yesterday's update). She won today's batch of nearly 6K ballots by 20% (!).
Not much left at this point.

The state of housing in NZ is wild. It's currently windy and all my windows are closed with curtains drawn. The window fitting is so poor that my curtains are all swaying to the wind outside. It's like building standards that have been common for decades elsewhere totally skipped New Zealand.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.
