Hobbit Home, exterior: No, thank you! We don't want any more visitors, well-wishers or distant relations! Close up of a wizard with a face crudely photoshopped in: And what about poorly-written pseudo intellectual propaganda for asocial teenage boys? Bilbo throwing open the door: Ayn Randalf!

Oh I thought y'all were joking about that minister for the south island

Someone did this to all the cones along our road and it absolutely tickles me (maybe more than it should)

Apparently folks think that writing that contains an em dash is a dead giveaway that it's from ChatGPT, which I guess is a sign that most people have never read anything in their lives.

Running through my mind every time we visit my parents' house

What the everloving fuck is happening with this weather

I think you also have the option of a train and a bus? If you want to get variation in your multiple forms of transport

Two things I think are true here.

1) Not doing a RIAS is bad an makes it clear National's 1st 100 days mass repeatl is entirely about ideology not good policy.

2) We don't know who leaked this. If it's a Minister, that's Luxon's problem. If it's an official, that's Bad & not justifiable for this.

The Danny Phantom theme song absolutely slaps

And I'm just realising that trying to describe the variations between the different flavours and how they look is actually making me seem unhinged

So it turns out not everyone had a phase where they were completely consumed by Jelly Belly jellybeans and all the flavours?! I was talking to Rob about how at some point the opaque white colouring has been removed from them which makes it super hard to tell the flavour on sight

Find someone who loves you like Newshub loves making up scandals about public employees getting inexpensive catering.

Bought new shoes, feeling a bit like I'm trying to fit in with my gen z workmates

Nice! I tried them once and found them inedible but am starting to wonder if it was just a bad batch.

Sorry this is going to be a weirdly specific sausage question but... are those the countdown brand kranskys and if so were they good?

Not necessarily festive but I love it:
Rocket, avocado, orange, red onion with a basic vinaigrette (you can also add cucumber too which I always do but that's not necessary for the taste balance)

Biblically accurate Angel food cake

My mum took me out for a drive today and I drove out and back, including down Jackson St AND parked the car at the end! Hopefully I won't make it to 23 years on my learners 🤞

one milkshake to bring all the boys to the yard and in the darkness bind them

Until this past weekend I was under the impression that Insinkerators/garbage disposals somehow needed emptying/put the waste somewhere else and now I found out they just dump the food waste into the sewers like gross wtf

My engagement ring is morganite, which is basically a different coloured emerald, and can be damaged a lot easier so I don't wear it all the time, and I kind of regret not just having a diamond that I don't take off

I am with you on looks and obviously the prices are artificially inflated blah blah but as an incredibly lazy person one thing a diamond ring has over pretty much all others is its a lot harder to damage so you could wear it all the time and not worry about whatever substances you touch damaging it
