Just envision that a Government came to power and cancelled a whole raft of essential programmes which would reduce the country's dependence on fossil fuels, only for there to be a once in a century oil crisis.

Where are they, I just wanna talk

WTF?!

NZ, particularly Wellington, is now mostly folk who can't leave for commitment reasons and people who can't leave because they can't afford to.

It's fucked.

Parents: Don't Hide Your Children's Autism Diagnosis From Them — THINKING PERSON'S GUIDE TO AUTISM since I didn’t know about my autism diagnosis, I just assumed there was something wrong with me and that I deserved what I got.

Parents, pls tell your autistic kids they are autistic: "You may think that an autistic child won’t notice they are different than their non-autistic peers; I have not met one autistic person (me included) who hasn’t noticed their difference early in life."

Predator Free Kāpiti Coast

I built my first ever website aged 10 in self-taught HTML. Safe to say things are a bit different now, 31 years later, but I really enjoyed pulling together the website for Predator Free Kāpiti Coast recently and am pleased to set it loose into the world.

Bitesize From 1997-2009, the San Francisco Bay Area’s Bitesize brought a little bit of sickness to indie-pop, filling their otherwise perfect two-minute long pop gems with awkward stops and starts, weird bursts of guitar noise, quirky vocals, and lots of jumping up and down. The band released two critically acclaimed CDs (The Best of Bitesize & Sophomore Slump) and received college radio airplay nationwide

The spectre of $5 a litre for your ancient carbon fossil blood.

Good luck perpetuating car culture into a forever future of infinite growth. Good luck preventing the now even more inevitable renewable energy transition.

Good luck staying in power.

There is not enough popcorn.

On this day in 2006 the Banks Peninsula and Christchurch City Councils merged and we added 4 more libraries to our network - Akaroa, Diamond Harbour, Little River, and Lyttelton. +
Happy 20th anniversary to the libraries and residents of Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū. ^MT

As a former American, I can tell you, American butter tastes absolutely horrific.

Aroha mai. Lyttelton Library is currently closed due to flooding outside the library.
We'll let you know if that changes.

Omg, the lore here with this product.

Are crows going to adopt these as legal tender? Will we have a thriving exchange system with crows within a few generations?

This is the bad timeline and we are here to make it worse

Still giggling about the person on here who went on a rant about how I couldn't possibly be a working-class writer because I have an MFA/teach in an MFA. Ma'am. I went to a shitty state school in Cleveland for that degree, and I am an adjunct who makes $5K a year.

Whenever I see a corporation post record revenue I’m like did you actually sell more units of widgets or did you just fucking raise the price of stuff. It’s all such a big giant scam on some excel sheet while kids go hungry and are murdered for it. I hate existence so much.

Make up your dang fool mind, Christchurch, is it fall yet or still summer?

Gonna be dressed wrong no matter what for at least the next two weeks.
