One of the things you may not notice about the new Star Trek shows is how contemporary actors fit the post scarcity society of The Federation better than ToS.

Most of the new actors did not suffered deprivation, nor post war injury, or smoking or leaded fuel & paint.

They even are less aged.

Oh, that’s in there but they’re all ashamed and don’t talk about it

NZ has the capability to rapidly spin up bioplastics, Harakeke-sourced carbon composites, et al in local supply chains.

Paranoia over the oil feedstock is really just doomstanning for status quo lazy boys on boomer boards. Question is whether the country will use that capability to build capacity.

No. It's healthcare.

A kinder way to put it would be to say its gender affirming healthcare. I'm sure that would upset her less than shaming her weight changes.

What is this? Are they trying to just make Nicola Willis pm for the hard stuff? #NZPol

Hey look we all had fun mocking the government's Fuel Lockdown traffic light system yesterday but in the cold morning light let us not overlook how their levels scheme replaced what would normally be level 'Green' with level 'Blue'.

Cars consistently vote for National, but not those bloody woke EVs

My "in New Zealand, cars are citizens" theory of politics remains absolutely undefeated.

Well, there’s not just not being able to afford it, but will there be one available in months and months?

How screwed will you be if stocking or shipping is still disrupted?

I am within a fleeting period of time where I can technically afford to buy a paper stack cutter. I won't need one for months and months, but by then I won't be able to afford it.

Do I just... do it. Buy it now. Invest now for book making later.

How are the wingnuts and cookers going to protest fuel restrictions by occupying parliament grounds if they can’t drive there

But really: Just let the petrol price go up for god's sake. It's a terrible system for resource allocation, sure, except for all the others.

Sending this to the Beehive...

Day 68 of fuel restriction level 4: Chris Bishop announces at 1pm that gas bbqs can only be used to cook steaks to medium rare or bloodier.

Doc: talks to me, asks me many questions and then starts talking about medication options

Me: wait so you think I have ADHD? You think the previous doc’s assessment that I have adhd is correct?

Doc: yes absolutely. Do you not agree?

Me: No I’ve just thought I’m a bad person and lazy 🥺

While still true, we've lost the sidings & the small to medium goods freight service we had in 1979. Time to look to the past for ideas?

Badge. Thou may ingest a satchel of Richards.

We've been at Level 1 four days too long. I demand an inquiry.

Pandemic comms were sooooo good they’re going to misuse it foreeeeveerrr

Fuel emergency level system: What happens at each stage, where are we now, are car bans included? There are four levels, similarly to the Covid alert system.

OH MY GOD THEY'RE DOING PANDEMIC LEVELS FOR FUEL
