Successfully cut all 10 finger nails without sending any into the multiverse ether. Smal will to cap off a mildly shitty day. Now a beverage to celebrate.

I'm guessing CSH779 missed the memo about today's law change in regard to waiting for buses. Near miss, but beeping horn doesn't absolve ignorance.

Damnit. SO's is home sick today. I was gonna do a lunchtime WFH dash to the Dirty Bird (in Kilbirnie) and have no evidence. Might be a fast walk to see the King of Burgers.

Pols journos sneering that “everyone knows about the Taxpayers Union” and ”it’s just lobbying” are telling on themselves; the fact is that the public *doesn’t* know about the TPU‘s antics and that is because of the failure of mainstream journalists

"Go back to your own country" If you've got time to waste protesting about the need to import workers then perhaps consider training for that role? Bus drivers were recruited to fill gaps. When they are forced to leave buses services will likely revert to post-pandemic cancellation levels.

Absolute emotional walk for a brave man who's sadly got so much more to struggle with during this debilitating journey. Shame of Sky Sports NZ for "scheduling" an ad break (containing gambling promotion & fast food) during this live coverage.

All those cunts slamming the #NRL for allowing Jai Arrow to take the field and clock up 100 games for the South Sydney Rabbitohs are the kind of pricks that will never donate to the Make a Wish foundation. Some big kids have dreams too. Let them have them if they're not hurting anyone.

I'd forgotten just how awesome @catchy.nz was. Why can't Metlink show all routes RTI tracked buses in a view like this? Bonus with Catchy you don't have to sell your soul to save favourite stops.

Does anyone I know happen to be somewhere near Auckland Showgrounds and have access to a printer? All my IT issues last week had some consequences… and I need a few docs printed, but I’m here alone. Am happy to pay if someone can pick up a USB, print them for me, and deliver back. 🙏
