Much like this, which I also took in 2013, and also haunts me.
A sandwich board outside a Brisbane dairy. A photoshopped picture of a claw like hand holding a sad looking mince pie topped with tomato sauce. Next to this, a bottle of chocolate milk. The sign reads “Aussie dining at its best… $5.50” and then “Come and get it!”

A movie that takes place where you're from?

I can’t imagine watching this without having a deep knowledge of Pōneke. Half of the joke is it’s set here.

Passion fruit isn’t just an incredible thing to eat, its flowers go hard
A passion fruit flower. A green centre of dull green, with a purple crown all the way around from which white stems extend like little tentacles. Behind the crown a set on plain white petals.

I just wish the city council had had the guts pushed forward with this and none of this new horror would be possible.
A dream outlay of Lent and Cambridge Terraces. On the west side, a two lane road and a tram line. The remainder is a re-wilded stream, open to the air, pedestrian and cycle lanes and trees and plant everywhere. It makes me sad we can’t have nice things like this.

Huh. Fascinating. In both Rongotai and Wellington Central, the electorates on both sides of the tunnel. Your party came a distant third on party votes and your candidates also came a distant third. Weird how so few people I Wellington voted for you on this

Oh fuck this noise. Hey National, tell me, where did your party place in Pōneke after this pledge? Let’s have a look in the next post.

An additional tunnel was part of the National Party's campaign promise, with improvements in the area discussed for years.

Hey Stuff, stop using AI to write your quizzes.
1000th millionth of a second is a picosecond says Stuff’s quiz. But where are those extra zeros coming from Stuff? Copilot giving the wrong answer too, saying 1000th of a billionth is a trillionth. Skipping a few orders of magnitude there buddy. Google’s AI making the same mistake. 10^-6/10³ = 10^-12 (it’s actually 10^-9). ChatGPT giving the actual real and surprisingly correct answer. 1000th of a millionth of a second is a billionth of a second, I.e., a nanosecond.

When the French, Spanish, British, Saudi Arabia, Ireland, Swiss and Japanese get together quickly and sort something out, you know you’re in the wrong side of you’re on the other side. It’s a shameful day for Aotearoa.
Announcement by the French Embassy in Aotearoa on Twitter Embassy in Aotearoa: “France in New Zealand @AmbafranceNZ On Saturday, Belgium, Denmark, , Iceland, Ireland, Japan, Norway, Saudi Arabia, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom announced the launch of the Emergency Coalition for the Financial Sustainability of the Palestinian Authority.”

LOL at Chris Bishop. I drove and backed this monstrosity around for a year. Yes, that’s a double axel trailer hooked to the back of a Hilux.
