@CGDay21 @wakeynz99 Go you! 😍

Chicken stir fry for dinner. I’m just shy of 4 kg down. Apparently I’m going something right!!

What a load of heaving bollocks: "...on the economy he feels more comfortable and has a reputation at least as a former chief executive for knowing what he's talking about on that front." #nzpol rnz.co.nz/news/political…

@misskylie77 Never!! Webmail all the way ✊🏼

Gang, I think I may be coming around to using a) Outlook new version and b) Outlook new version in browser. Whomst even am I

@kiwialliance @selinacleis Sounds like here - are you in Horowhenua?

@selinacleis No PT here at all. I have a 15-20 minute drive to the nearest small town, 40 minutes to nearest city which isn’t far, but when conserving petrol I tend to do as much as possible in single trip. There are thousands of us relying on our car.

I am in the same boat no buses connect Matatoki to Thames.

@kiwialliance @Mountain_Tui @Tauranga2020 Same. No PT, one gas station that's charging $3.55/ltr for 95, one small NW that has killed off all local food businesses and has the whole town at its mercy, erratic power, patchy internet

@Mountain_Tui @Tauranga2020 Can she please come back and take over for the duration? I’d feel so much better as I live on the pension and in the country as I can see it could get to be difficult to get that expensive food soon with no petrol. No deliveries out here.

When Covid first hit, Jacinda Ardern said Labour chose to "go hard and go early" to get in front of things. NZ became the envy of the world in its Covid management. When Iran war started, I wrote: "The inflation effects are indeterminable & extensive. We are seeing fuel price 🧵

@interPARASect24 @we_dollar Yup - countries indebted forever, utterly shameful

@AstroPuss @we_dollar yeah, if I recall, there's a lot of Latin American stories in there primarily Panama in the 70s and there's a documentary too on those War By Other Means abt Philippines youtube.com/watch?v=lY2rd2… Indonesia version youtube.com/watch?v=rNXL1a… Man, US really messing up Southeast Asia

I have pals in Vietnam and the Philippines at the moment. Both countries are running out of fuel. Soon getting around let alone flying out is going to be a huge problem for them so they've cut their trips short and are coming home.

🧵

@interPARASect24 @we_dollar Also, this book - exposes all the worldwide financial bullying over decades

@AstroPuss @we_dollar Been a longtime for the Filipinos jacobin.com/2021/08/philip… And man Vietnam, I had no idea until a podcast called Blowback, Nixon 'promised' reoperations and of course they never gave them Just, continues to have influence

@interPARASect24 @we_dollar Likely standover tactics because of IMF funding obligations

@we_dollar as a former US colony, the Philippines and everything we know as to what the US did to Vietnam (and Lao and Cambadia), they still messing with them somehow

@we_dollar Apparently it's only illegal if you have an "unapproved" 1000ltr tank 😡

@AstroPuss Definitely knuckle draggers. I hope they pick them up on CCTV and card transactions and charge them!

People around here have been spotted filling these at gas stations, and I have questions 🤨

@Cog70 @jeffcthomson For most people, that scenario is unaffordable or, as in my case, undoable because of being extreme coastal. It would take significant govt investment to get homes on renewables - more than any party would commit to.

@jeffcthomson I have a son-in-law who has a roof full of solar panels and two e-cars. A disaster that govt can’t think ahead like he has! This is the first ‘crisis’ that this lot have faced, but so far there has been no report of any planning or any proactive way of managing it.

I wouldn’t like to own a petrol gas-guzzler just now.

@we_dollar Yep. Farmers

@AstroPuss Appalling!!

@Kruiser17 Eyewitness FB post and NewStalkZB newstalkzb.co.nz/on-air/the-wee…

@AstroPuss Have you photos. Shame them & report.

@moon2112 Guess which particular sector of the community...?

@AstroPuss Narcissistic

@infinite_ink It pops up a lot in baking and things like pancakes etc

@AstroPuss Think it the one thing not in my arsenal. So will grab some . Thanks for that. Have every other type of GF flour & starch imaginable I think.

1st gluten free tortilla recipe ? EPIC fail. rubbery. Not good. On to the next recipe . I will win !

@Tauranga2020 I doubt farmers gaf 😞

@AstroPuss I actually wonder if any dangerous goods receptacles are checked these days like they used to be I gather the ones they're using aren't going to be useful for water in the future if they're putting diesel in them, or for much else

@ElizabethMouat @DonaldJTrumpJr @EricTrump Do they allow drug addicts in their military?

Idle thought: I wonder which branch of the USA Armed Forces will the Trump boys join? Army, Navy, Airforce or Marines. @DonaldJTrumpJr @EricTrump

@southstarbrew Farmers. I have no sympathy

@AstroPuss sounds like a fireball in waiting.
