Melie Kerr becomes the 7th woman in ODI history, and the first from NZ, to take a 7-wicket haul, as Zimbabwe are bowled out for 102 (29.1).

Mupachikwa 32 (51)
Mazvishaya 13 (20)

Kerr 7-34
Penfold 3-17

Maybe the β€˜90% attendance for
each student each term’ that my teen’s school is pushing comes at too high a cost? And has anyone worked out how many others get infected and have to take time off if people go to school sick?

Useless misogynistic TVNZ sports reporters

An entire bulletin without mentioning the women's cricket team is playing an international match that is broadcast live on TVNZ tomorrow

So many men not actually playing sport but all more important than a women's international

Same, hence only a very tiny bit of honey. I also used to share to honey one with my late husband for his second cup of tea. I should really wean myself off the honey one.

I wipe the knife between putting on the honey and marmite.

Well at least you didn't put your marmite on top of the honey. It tastes gross.

How about making changes that would make home ownership affordable instead of tweaking things so more people can deplete their retirement savings just to have somewhere to live now (when they already have somewhere to live?).

Even if it works now - and I'm not saying it does - AI is explicitly and loudly destroying the things that makes it feasible, and nobody is even looking one move ahead here.

When the snake eats itself, it doesn't grow and eat endlessly. It just fucking dies.

We CAN choose better things in AoNZ. Just like New York and Gorton & Denton. But, like those places, it's going to take effort.
Please, if you want to live in a country that supports and uplifts everyone, become a volunteer.
We deserve better. Let's help make it happen πŸ’š βœ…οΈβœ…οΈ

Ok. My friend needs to pay $1500-$2k for many of her cat’s teeth out. She has one high special needs son and another younger girl. Life is bringing her way down. If you live in Ōtautahi/CHC, would you consider donating a bit if she comes to take family/ or furry whānau photos for you? Am gauging!

ESR Wastewater Surveillance

I wish we had frequent wastewater results from
www.poops.nz from all the sampling sites like we used to. Sigh.

We’re flying blind and the people in charge (of many different things!) don’t care.

It’s also doing the rounds at Wellington unis. All those students packed into halls, lectures, and O week events makes for easy spread.
Masks are the best protection.

What’s the solution you ask me? Oh it’s actually bloody simple - flexible working arrangements, fewer hours commuting, higher pay, a society where men are also expected to take part in child care, eliminating the pay gap, earlier retirement, and not sending ALL THE MONEY TO FUCKING BILLIONAIRES.

I'll be attending the Feb 17 meeting.
The #SalvationArmy is resolutely speaking up on behalf of growing number of kids and families that are hungry or homeless.
Their State of the Nation report is a must-read. But we must do more than just read it.

This weird obsession right wingers have about how long it takes to count votes in NZ is so weird man what difference does it make? We are globally insignificant our election results don’t move the markets. You got something important to do that hinges on election results just go live your life πŸ™„
