So he moved his own motion of confidence in his leadership & says he received “full support”…
NZ voted for me to blah blah blah the economy…
NZers blah blah blah media speculation…
The world right now blah blah blah…
That’s all I heard.

Detour: Northbound traffic detour via SH1 to Ohau, then turn right onto SH57, continue along SH57 and then turn right onto SH3, continue along SH3 until you rejoin SH2 in Woodville. Reverse for southbound. Please note: this will add approximately 3 1/2 hours!! to your journey time. #AONZ
Yikes! #AoNZ

A bridge washout has closed State Highway 2 Remutaka Hill Rd.
The closure is likely to stay in place overnight. Plan your journey accordingly. (!!!)
Detour route will add approximately three and a half hours to your journey time.
While we scrabble to cope as rain intensity increases in #Aonz politicians hark the warning signs of things to come in
Meanwhile north of the equator eyes are peeled 4 when the Gulf Stream "jumps" 200km north then the AMOC tips
Chance of by 2050 a coin flip

Had some Hellers mince for tea and it was incredibly unpopular with the family (sadly threw most away) Just looked at the label to discover it was only “made in New Zealand” from NZ and/or Australian beef. 480g pack but after browning and draining weighed only 243g. Won’t be buying again #AoNZ
I was listening to some NZ commercial radio while the severe storms were happening.
Very taken aback to hear an (unattractive) ad for The Australian every 15 mins. What are they trying to achieve?
Is this normal #AoNZ folks?

So is it okay to be obsessed with "The Other Bennet Sister"? (on TVNZ+ for folks here in #AoNZ) Asking for ... well ... me. :)
Kia ora all, I've just started a really cool new job at the end of last year as a tutor for Brain Play! We teach STEM subjects to groups of kids, and do 1:1 tutoring of neurodivergent children too.
Kind of an #ad but I really believe in the cause and am not being paid to share this, so there's […]
Theo made the school basketball team for Term 2 and 3. Eek! Just when there’s questions about hypermobility. Argh.

Realising that, with #AoNZ elections later this year, people born in 2008 will be voting for the first time.
Just leaving it there, while I take the dog for a longer walk than usual...
A beautiful photograph of Jo Luxton, Member of Parliament (Labour). She has long, ombré brown-blonde hair, and wears a moss-green suit jacket over a white top.
I didn’t realise @joluxton.bsky.social was related to the late Norman Kirk!
Wow! 🤩 #aonz
It has been 15 years since I completed my Masters research. I’m trying to remember if there’s a strategy that helps you construct survey questions in a way that is not leading. Does that make sense? Also, are you allowed to ask hypothetical or nonsensical questions? #helpplease #research #aonz
Yesterday the same neighbor brought us some smoked maple bacon he made, saying, “if things got rough with the cyclone at least we’d have bacon.” #AoNZ
Would there be a way for bookish Aotearoa-folk to have a “wanted” or “ISO” feed? As in, “I would love to find a tidy copy of Theo & Matilda by Rachel Billington.” Then an agreed hashtag? Thoughts? #aonz #kikorangi #booksky @larissacomments.bsky.social?
I hope everyone in Aotearoa New Zealand is keeping safe. Lots of wind and rain last night but fortunately not enough to cause serious damage.

#CycloneVaianu
A feijoa half showing 7 locules filled with pulp.
A diagram of a feijoa cut in half with the parts labeled. These include: septa, locules, columella, and pericarp.
Also, what’s the max number of locules you’ve found in a feijoa this year?

Text reads “Tēnā koutou Katia and then gives details from the Matahiwi Marae, inviting anyone who needs to evacuate due to Cyclone Vaianu to come and find support. Details include directions, sleeping arrangements and food.
This is the HEART of Aotearoa/New Zealand - a cyclone threatening us by tomorrow and already marae are ready and willing to welcome anyone.
They have such value and deserve the rest of us to support them.💜

Feeling my Nebraskan roots reach me all the way in #AoNZ as I successfully grow a single ear of sweet corn.
A great thread about preparedness. If you have time after getting yourself together, see if anyone else down the street needs help. Not everyone has the same access to things as others. Look out for one another. ♥️ #cyclone #aonz #greens #peoplepower

Photo shows Louis Davis eating boil-up with Dame Jacinda Ardern, as they laugh and talk together.
Didn’t think I could love Louis Davis more; then he brings out this gorgeous interview with Jacinda. SO good seeing her smiling and laughing. She deserves happiness. 😍😍😍 #aonz
