More bread for the rest of us then 😂

@sarahpolo10 @gtiso @tzemingdynasty I read it and thought, whoopty fuckin' dop.

@gtiso @tzemingdynasty I just don't understand these kind of media pieces, are we supposed to feel sorry for them?

This encapsulates politics in New Zealand: the great ideological divide is around whether landlords should own fewer or more houses than you need to buy a hotel in Monopoly. stuff.co.nz/business/13208…

But as America continues to record multiple, daily, mass shootings, *The Onion*'s writers needed something else. Yesterday, they ran "Americans Describe What It’s Like Surviving A Mass Shooting," and oh shit is it a doozy: theonion.com/surviving-a-ma… 71/

About a person I used to know. My @SundayStarTimes @NZStuff #cartoon

Sigh. Really missing the 4 pizzas + 2 sides deal that @dominos_NZ used to offer. With 4 kids, that was my go to.

If you’re disabled and standing as a candidate in parliamentary elections, you may be eligible for help with costs non-disabled candidates don’t face. The Election Access Fund can help with these costs, such as support people. Find out more here: elections.nz/getting-involv…

That was a good wee shake. #eqnz

When do we get to talk about removing the money from politics? Is it now, or do we wait until we are just like the US? newshub.co.nz/home/politics/…

I wanna do a gig in Timaru, any venue suggestions? Is Hector Black's all good? Do I know anyone here from Timaru

Hogan's Heroes ran 1965-1971: A campy spy comedy set in a POW camp in Nazi Germany, which feels like a very weird choice. In poor taste, honestly. Learning about the actors has given me a new perspective: First, every major German character was played by a Jewish actor.

@farmgeek I'm, sorry, HOW MUCH rain?! Yikes.

Remember when rain was measured in millimetres?

@ibeardslee My suspicion was correct. She has a small collection of feijoas to eat now.

@ibeardslee I have discovered I have a feijoa tree in my backyard. I thought I did, but this is the first year there has been fruit on it. I don't like feijoas, but my 8yo loves them. She is going to be super excited when I show her later this afternoon.

I’ll keep saying this until I’m blue in the face: until recently, public holidays were an opportunity for the railways and saw massive patronage. It is frustrating that this market for travel is now totally neglected
