This is a FRAUDULENT paper, AI-generated. My name was used as an author and I had nothing to do with it, never saw it until today e-pubmed.co.uk/journals/digit… The "Editors" Angelo Rossi Mori, David Mensah, and Zarnie Khadjesari should be reported.

@Mike__Pole What's going on? Is it the aliens come to save us from fossil fuels? Omg, what if turns out after all this time that they're the good guys and we're the scary ones.

@jwacarrollNZ Wow, wet ground and massive rain. Seems like it evolved from our rough weekend here.

Dung #beetles 🪲🦗🐛 are unsung heroes of ecosystems. If both drought and fire kill off dung beetles, then the Amazon #rainforest is in serious trouble. Help them to survive by going #vegan and #Boycottpalmoil 🌴🪔☠️🤮⛔️ #Boycott4Wildlife @palmoildetect

@mcnaughthelen1 Sort of likewise, On the Front Desk at this Visitor Centre, we all know not to say: “It’s so quiet now!”

There’s a couple of moa-overhang shelters near here! 🤭

@Mike__Pole @jwacarrollNZ Are they going to feign an attack on Ukraine and go for the Suwalki gap?

@Signsoflife27 😆 One of the very odd things about LOTR is the lack of NZ birds (I think. Someone can correct me on that…)

@HendrikGout Thanks Hendrik, finally found that tab, it doesn’t appear on an iPad. I’ll see how it goes. Still not sure why posts from people I follow, and interact with, have become almost equally split between ‘For you’ and ‘Following’.

@Mike__Pole Go to your Following icon. You'll see there are two settings there. One puts posts up in order of their popularity, the other by time of posting. Click on the time one. That might help to some degree.

Torrential rain has triggered what locals say is the worst flooding seen in years across parts of the Wellington region, forcing evacuations, inundating homes and cutting roads as more downpours loom. -

@llihhcruhc1 Yikes, yes, carry the lot out there. This was a couple who just wanted to walk up to Marion’s. Good jackets, but no beanies.

@Mike__Pole I’d suggest more than beenies. One year I was there a school group got caught between the summit and Watefall Valley Hut - short trek. Several shipped back in serious condition with hypothermia. You carry the lot out there or play Russian roulette
