So. Me? #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

I'm into tech / geeky stuff
Aviation nerd - especially Helicopters

Social justice - so donations to genuine orgs that help others.

Beer - especially tasty craft beers ( h/t to @annikakes.bsky.social for this )

Been sometime since I played this, so here goes :)
Karma. It’s a thing.

Weather is atrocious out there. Kudos to those out working in it.

In other news, it is just 7 days until Metallica, and 11 days until Tool!

Has been a time since I was in Auckland and now twice in the space of a few days.

I have some time on Sat pm and Sunday free in the cbd.

Oh, and private enterprise started some big arsed shopping malls. Bayfair was first, The Lakes third (but out played Papamoa Plaza really quickly)
These bashers have obviously never been in the cbd lately during business hours on a monday to friday.

And Murray Guy is just a cooker/cock/dickhead/irrelevant who got butt hurt for being kicked out of the council. He was part of the initial problem.

From ‘ghost town’ to ‘zombie apocalypse:’ Can a billion dollar spend save this city?
Is it time to give up the ghost on Tauranga CBD developments that cost ratepayers dearly?

Fuck fireworks.

Ferals firing fireworks at cars on Marine Pde, Mount Maunganui.

It is going to be a bad night.

I know some love doing their own fireworks, but if they had to pay an average fire truck callout in sales tax, their bangers would cost an easy extra $1500. That's what a fire call out costs. I bet they'd stop buying them.

I haven't seen New York this happy since the Ghostbusters defeated Gozer.

And surprise! The fire channel lights up with vegetation fires. There's the cost to the taxpayer.
Fucks sake. I hate private fireworks, but when it isn't even dark, you plumb new depths of stupidity and wastage of money.

Looking forward to going back to work in the morning. Been off for a couple of days after getting an eye infection Saturday. Got meds Monday and they have kicked in quite well.

I'm not sure about #SecretSantaAoNZ

I dipped my toe back in last time &was a bit disappointed that my giftee didn't even bother to acknowledge receiving anything.
I wouldn't have minded if they say it sucked, but nothing at all left me disillusioned. They had to be nudged to even post hints.

Andrew will still be living in a royal residence with an allowance from King Charles. But sure, let’s focus on the ‘tragedy’ of him losing his title, not the young girls and women who endured years of abuse and trafficking.
Trump on Prince Andrew and the Epstein scandal: "I feel very badly. I mean, it's a terrible thing that's happened to the family. That's been a tragic situation. And it's too bad. I feel badly for the family."
