Self-reinvention is a way to stay young, as long as you can remember what you were.

#Aurora have many different stages throughout the night, & at 10pm the display was waining (just a bit, trust the data), I had stopped my timelapse to have some fun as I thought the cloud was coming in.
Incredibly this was during a lull in the display. Selfie time.

I am honoured by the cat in my lap.
Pickles is not now, nor has he ever been, a lap cat, but on this most moist morning he needs his human company. And who am I to complain?

So the government refuses to lift a finger on cutting emissions and is rolling back climate action, now they're making sure that they don't have to lift a finger in helping Kiwis deal with the results of their inaction. May their houses all be on floodplains
Disgusting.
