Yesterday was a stunner of a day!
The water was sooo calm and it’s already pretty warm. Here’s what it was like in Bostaquet Bay (southern end of Kawau Island).

I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

Great talk yesterday about the low sports crowds in NZ.
Lots of factors
I hate the poor choice of foods, drinks, carparks which are horribly overpriced
Tickets out of reach of most and don't even take the kids?
Why change the strip/ merch every fucking year?
Has the quality of the sports got worse?

I think ALL war is a climate disaster. A waste of EVERYTHING; people, resources, infrastructure, housing, roads, schools hospitals, communities… that these ship’s dirty crude is burning really only serves to underscore how far we are from focusing on the existential crises we’re in.

Storms, accidents, road closures hurt trucking industry
Police insist they have a responsibility to victims and their families to thoroughly investigate road crashes.

For online purchases, if it’s a retailer you’re not familiar with, look up their address in Google street view.
A lot of overseas drop shippers are registering NZ addresses.

Anyway. I picked this one, because of I See Red.
I've seen Tim perform it live (a couple of times) and you can see it's coming.
So, this gentle, balladic version is so refreshing.

The District Court Act 2014 establishes mandatory retirement for District Court judges at the age of 70. The Senior Courts Act 2016 does the same for High Court judges (including Court of Appeal and Supreme Court judges).
If so ageist why not a members bill for MP mandatory retirement at 70?

New Zealand doesn’t define sex or gender in law at the moment. This is a good thing because even without trans people biology is messy and doesn’t care about random lines we draw.
If you ask a biologist for a universal test for sex they’ll say one doesn’t exist.
