Sunset and coming down into AKL

Some beautiful skies taking off towards Auckland yesterday

Palantir is the devil incarnate from what I can tell.

I will be very happy when NZ somehow corners Peter Theil in some complex tax trap and says no more billionaire for you, yah cunt

big hair dont care ...

Royal Mile in Edinburgh in 2018 ... the close/court that bears the family name (my ancestors knew the importance of a comfortable and sanitary poo spot and, from memory, lead the charge in civil infrastructure including indoor plumbing).

Wyeth is a master or those gentle but unsettling scenes.

His lace(?) curtains are mesmerizing and one of those few paintings where my inner ego and artist is actually realistic and say "no way in hell I could do that"

blep

Its also wildly inefficient for a robot thing that doesn't need to be bound by the idea of being bi-pedal ... you know what'd absolutely smash this "record"? A robot with wheels ... or a robot in a car.

AI does wonders with filters and image enhancement these days. It looks so natural

And yes that should sound vaguely threatening

I know you know better my friend 😂

The crosses some must bear are so heavy and burdensome some times Ralph

I can't even wear glasses because I have perfect vision 😭😭😂😭

You can find them in North America under the name "Pineapple Guava" they don't store/travel well but are a bit of a "thing" in NZ with lots of feijoa flavored stuff. I don't have a tree but apparently this season the trees are fruiting like made which makes my belly and taste buds very happy.

Gym accountability ✅

Someone in the neighborhood put out a bag of feijoas for free and my week suddenly looked that much brighter and shinier

People can be both:
1. Absolutely critical of the Israeli state and it's actions (both in its current wars and in previous activities and supporting settlers, etc.).
2. Absolutely supportive of Jewish peoples ability to continue to practice their religion and create community in freedom and safety.

They do be tiddy-ing

Off the horse just to climb back on.
Gym accountability ✅

mate ... me too.
I start of with a joke that was meant to be self-deprecating or kinda dark humour and then just sorta flip into ... oh, that's sad.

jokes becoming almost therapy moments of
"oh, Arthur ... you probably should reflect on why you processed it like that"

A busy month might get me to a third of that total 😬

21 times is wild to me ... clearly I need to up my game

Welcome to the Ritz Mr., uhm, Mr. Meat Box Special?

a price is a function of the item, the setting (location/time), and the interested parties.

for him, at that time, that was the price. There is no shame in that.

For others in a different setting the price might be lower or maybe you let them have it for free but this, was NOT that occassion.

if you have to ask you cant afford it! lol

oh honey! You are expensive and know your worth!

fine ...

*puts dick back in pants*

but seriously you handle that persistence with grace and humor and, as frustrating as I am sure it gets, its really nice to see someone create and hold firm boundaries. Proud of you my friend :)

well someones feeling sassy today! I love it

*probably*

🤮🤮🤮

The grey sweats are universal it seems

Happy birthday! 🎉🥳
