@nickofnz they don’t use oil

Blasting a giant rocket off for a joyride around the Moon right now just seems like an excessive use of fuel and money at a time that the world faces an oil crisis that's fast turning into a global cost of living crisis.

@nickofnz nearly everything you use relies on oil

Their shareholders won't live in the hellscape the oil industry promises us. But our kids will. For them to have a future, the oil industry can have no future. #MakeOilHistory

@playmatejaylene play your cards right an my fiancée might be help you out, did a pretty job with mine

@turtlebackflips i am indeed in need of tlc 🥺

good morning 𝕏 enjoyers 🌻 wyd?

@ClintVSmith are you guys retarded? the medical advice was that getting under 18’s vaxxed was more risky then getting covid - we tried saying this at the time and got blasted for spreading misinformation, even tho it was official advice

it's weird to see the Nats desperately cuddling up to anti vax weirdos. do they think parents are going to be mad at Hipkins for getting vaxs for our kids? I wish my kids could get boosters to help protect them from catching COVID at school.

@LettersForPale1 @grant_farquhar @ScarfNZ @MSweetaz @threeboysbrew 20 tonne not very big, useful for roadworks and light gravel work. loaders used in mines are 200 tonne

@grant_farquhar @ScarfNZ @turtlebackflips @MSweetaz @threeboysbrew Its still not the "Toy" you were whinging about. Its a Twenty Ton piece of Equipment. Something you dont believe can be run on Windmills. . .

#NZ #EnergyMarkets 1. Not much oil 2. Long way from oil 3. Lots of wind 4. Lots of sun 5. Lots of water 6. Lost of geothermal Anybody got any ideas... our governments are stumped !

@KaiparaPossum @threeboysbrew they cover 95% of our power consumption (electricity) which is only 20% of our total energy use

@turtlebackflips @threeboysbrew They actually cover over 95%. Don’t call people retards when they’re right.

diggers, tractors, cranes, etc what fuel do you think was used to gather the materials to make the e.vs? i think electric is great, it makes more efficient use of our energy, but it is laughable to say that we can transition easily, and completely with current amount id money and technology we have

@turtlebackflips @NBinquire @threeboysbrew In December more than half the trucks sold in China were EVs. Plane and boats are more of an issue.

@IfindRetards can we nominate everyone that thinks solar would solve our current fuel crisis

It's the end of the month and the week. Give me your nominations for both retard of the week and someone else for retard of the month.

@threeboysbrew @MSweetaz the amount diesel being used by non-essential road vehicles is a drop in the bucket compared to essential use, it would make negligible difference

@turtlebackflips @MSweetaz The point is, if we are not driving our packed lunch to work on the deck of the Ford Anger, there will be more diesel in the pot for the digger and the harvester.

@NBinquire @walterdent1 @threeboysbrew solar is fantastic for powering homes and buildings, but not possible to power a supply chain reliant on diesel lol

@walterdent1 @turtlebackflips @threeboysbrew It’s more complex than that. The groupthink religion that solar can work at scale has destroyed the niche where solar might contribute some value.

@MSweetaz @threeboysbrew nearly all of our energy requirements are public information, needed to supply and distribute our energy requirements, you should look it up, one doesn’t need a peer-reviewed study to assess readily available information.

@turtlebackflips @threeboysbrew I'm guessing you have a peer-reviewed study to back those claims?

@GeddesLiza @nickofnz majority of on road diesel is used for industrial purposes. very little percent is for private or non-essential service use

@turtlebackflips @nickofnz By not using diesel on the roads there will always be enough until industry transitions Less pollution is good too

New Zealand's isolation keeps us safe from many of the world's crises, but an oil shock? Not so much. We HAVE to become self-sufficent with significant investment in wind, solar, electrification and energy efficiency. And kick Luxon's stupid LNG idea into touch 👇

@TiffanyFong pseudo ephedrine

I’m so congested I can’t breathe out of my nose, but my throat’s so sore, it hurts to breathe out of my mouth. IDK WHAT TO DO. Accepting recommendations.

@apshutt @nickofnz every production industry is, we simply cannot produce stuff without diesel (currently)

@turtlebackflips @nickofnz Never mind the road fleet. The construction industry basically is addicted to diesel. Cranes, boring machines and all the diggers. It's the biggest pollutant in London. But it's easier to collect money from the private motorist who only accounts for 13%..

Britain has responded to the oil crisis by requiring solar panels in all new homes. New Zealand? Telling lies to blame the previous govt.

@greeny_nzl @acteduweininger simply remove 80% of all govt. departments then income tax will also fund roads

@acteduweininger And how do you cover the costs of maintaining and improving the roading network? it should be user pays

If any political party actually wanted to win in a landslide in New Zealand—none do, they all hate you—they could campaign on removing all tax, GST, emissions trading scheme, levies, everything, from the price of fuel, which would effectively drop the price to the $1.50-2 range.

@saltyreigns use screws with a large head, make sure you put large enough gaps between boards, both can reduce the cupping and stop it getting worse, and make sure to use stainless fixings

I’m building this little bridge out of recycled timber. Honest - Does it look shit? also, some of the boards are a bit bowed - any ideas how I can straighten them? Ill stencil some text into the timber - maybe burn them / black paint “in the red earth an the pouring rain”

@nickofnz you can’t power anything that got the materials for a windmill through wind energy

Oil men: “Wind energy isn’t reliable enough.” The wind:
