Living in the anglosphere is an endless cycle of > cool idea for a city that is common everywhere else in the world > concepted and planned > put on ice to ease outrage from people who don’t even live in the city > spend money on roads > repeat

@tea_gil i don't think she would like that unfortunately (but i do want to try a little harness for eventual outdoors time)

@gotbited You could always try to put a silly hat on her

changed the profile pic i've had since i made this account on account of having my very own cat (even if she doesn't have a silly hat)

@TobyAndTaro awesome man, keep up the good work

Doin this :)

tree time tree time tree time

@finlay_txt so true bestie

@itsyaboidougie lmao. i haven't seen anything under 3 this week

its 8pm and the street i live on (in a suburb just outside the city center of christchurch, new zealand) is chock full of cars lining up just to get gas thats $2.95NZD a gallon. haha uh oh

@itsashleybabyx i mean no shit but i haven't actually heard the arguments for them

@gotbited they aren’t!

i don't have The Press money can anyone honestly tell me what's supposed to make these better than a regular tram or the buses we've got?

@TheGradyConnell u the goat for this

@gotbited archive.ph/2026.03.17-175…

@Becs The Ordinary aha/bha exfoliating mask is doing wonders for my skin (uneven tone from sun damage + acne scars) when i remember to use it twice a week, and it's not super expensive as far as skincare goes - $20 at farmers for a couple months worth

Uh. How do I get rid of my baby face mask? Really hating on uneven skin tone.

@tea_gil lmao it's a literature review im doing a bunch of that it's fine

@gotbited Yeah UC says the same thing. I guess the real advice is, don't cite multiple sources in one sentence. But also possibly your or my markers have not cared about that at all

in the last year of my degree and i still never remember whether in-text citations go in alphabetical or chronological order 🫩🫩🫩

@tea_gil it feels like it should be, that's why i keep getting confused, but that's the official website

@gotbited Oh what???? I swear apa is chronological

@tea_gil girl hold on you lied to me i knew i was right

@gotbited Honestly afaik that is the same in every citation style too. (Some like nz law style do split up the bibliography into categories but in-text stay chronological)

@tea_gil i knowww.... and yet every time i second guess myself about in-text ones and google it

@gotbited Chronological for in-text if you're using multiple in one sentence. Alphabetical for the bibliography

@tea_gil I use them to clean my earbuds and phone case they're so helpful

You know having alcohol wipes around is really useful for when you make a small mess that needs a spot clean

@theIouvrelorde i understand the urge to shit talk chch but the fact is when it comes to taking the bus we are So Up actually (don't ask about the trains)

@gotbited holy i am so unbelievably jealous actually

metlink app lets you compare your bus trip to the cost of private vehicles… oh cool it would faster AND cheaper AND about the same emissions? why the fuck am i taking the bus then ?

@theIouvrelorde 6km my ass bruh im gonna come up there and start enforcing some policy 😭 we have flat fares here it's $1.50 whether im going two stops to uni or 20km to my parents place

@gotbited Genuinely I don’t know !! this was a long trip by welly standards (~6km), but I don’t understand why we don’t have fare caps here yet. I would genuinely use the bus sooooo much more if I didn’t have to worry about the cost adding up so much. As it is I just walk a lot :(
