I suspect your question is answered by the last four words in your skeet. 🤣

Wait until it all drops then use whatever trial HBO offers? 🤷‍♂️

A truck parked completely blocking a cycle lane, inside the yellow lines.

Look mate, I don’t care if you smile sweetly and say “Oh, I do apologise,” as you return to your truck.

You being able to park right outside the bakery to get your lunch isn’t more important than my safety. I’m not swerving into traffic, especially on this windy and rainy day, to get around you.

Is reminding voters that Peters put our most popular PM in recent memory into power a good way to convince voters that Peters is a bad choice for New Zillund? 🤔

The moon – satellite of love Comment: Happily, humanity mostly shared the recent ‘moon joy’ of Artemis II even against the backdrop of wars, writes Richard Easther

Newsroom with my thoughts on "moon joy" -- with a lovely headline...

Oh great. I expected this from Drunk Uncle Winnie and Rimmer. But to see Luxon (and the rest of National no doubt) import the "Radical left" rhetoric from overseas political discourse is disappointing. 🤦‍♂️ #nzpol

TLOU has a special place in my heart. I was lucky enough to be at the launch party for its PS4 release, and it remains my favourite game.

I've really enjoyed both seasons of the TV adaption so far (which due to my gaming experience I was thankfully fully prepared for the S2 "twist")

Read this whole thread.

Damn, Norm. Thank you.

I am aware 😆

HBO Max gets a New Zealand launch date From 16 June New Zealanders can flick on the new streaming service to watch shows likeThe Gilded Age, the new Harry Potter series and the next installment of The White Lotus.

Well, guess Neon will be seeing the last of us unless they're (significantly) dropping their price.

The comments from both senior ministers on RNZ's Morning Report signalled the election campaign has well and truly begun, with Willis also saying Peters was "mischief-making". She went on to say that Labour was "choosing to get into bed with the party that referred to Indians choosing to come to New Zealand as a 'butter chicken tsunami'".

Hey Nicola, who is the party that is currently in bed with NZ First? And did that party's leader call out Shane Jones' racism for what it is? #nzpol

Neither is Luxon 🤷‍♂️ #nzpol

Cover of Red Deer in New Zealand, A Complete Hunting Manual by Roger Lentle & Frank Saxton It's red-brown in colour, featuring two stag photos

Infographic showing the characteristics of deer shit -- in different seasons, different deer, different conditions, how it degrades with time, &c &c

Inforgraphic "The deer at rest and his defences" showing the typical posture of an unalarmed deer facing downwind, the range and effectiveness of deer senses, and detailing the alarm matrix: either smell alone, or a combination of sight and sound

Infographic showing "The rules for stalking in pairs", showing two hunters moving parallel to each other into the wind, with visual communication between them and allowable fields of fire for each hunter comprising a 180 degree arc opposite the other hunter with a prominent NO SHOOTING IN THIS AREA between

One of my bids for the apocalypse library: Red Deer in New Zealand, A Complete Hunting Manual by Roger Lentle & Frank Saxton

A taonga of a book. Nearest thing to a Bible for practical deer hunting in the NZ-specific context

Worth it for the hand drawn infographics alone

🤔 #nzpol

Outstanding photo, I don't know how they did it but they added this effect if you happen to have a subscription

Well, your music tastes could be more progressive. But you still get my vote. 🫡

Not that ducking guy!

Screenshot from Stuff's Live page on the PM drama. Headline states: Peters calls National's vote 'egotistical rubbish', and claims to know how many MP's backed Luxon. The photo below the headline shows Luton and Peters in earlier times sitting in the front benches of Parliament laughing together before Luxon realised what sort of shit Winston was going to pull during his term...ah...schadenfreude...

Why yes Winston, this is a good time to throw oil on the fire 🍿

I worry that rolling him gives them enough time to put a more seasoned (but equally as horrible) senior MP in charge, giving voters the confidence to give them another go.

Indeed we do. It's got a reasonably tight seal up there. Definitely airtight adjacent, and performance hasn't suffered.🤷‍♂️

I couldn't possibly hate that player. Look at that face. LOOK AT IT

They're gonna need another boat

LOL. No questions. What a coward.

YUSS! They're running with Luxo from Marketing. That'll be a significant thorn in their election campaign. What unites the nation is that we really, really, REALLY do not like him. #nzpol

Loopholes be loopholing

Your regular reminder, that had Nikki No Boats not cancelled the iREX ferries out of spite, we'd have brand NEW fit for purpose ferries coming in to service about NOW!

instead, we have no new boats, and a fleet of aging not fit for purpose boats that require additional maintenance.

Technically not on the table.
