Fossil fuel companies are legally suffocating the planet, while sitting on a road to get them to stop is illegal and will land you in jail.

At some point people are going to stop caring about the law.

So we've gone from a country of "I wonder if any of my neighbours are racist" to "Most people on my street are racist." I feel like this whole thing has backfired and now racists will feel emboldened, knowing they have the support of 8 million Australians to continue depriving, oppressing, ignoring, and steamrolling the indigenous population. #TheVoice

"Democracy is sacred … I am mindful that no Secretary of State has ever deprived a presidential candidate of ballot access based on Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment. I am also mindful, however, that no presidential candidate has ever before engaged in insurrection."

Huh I never pondered that at some times of the year Earth is moving in the same direction (roughly) as Voyager 1 which is the fastest human-made object moving at 17 km/s while Earth moves at 30 km/s, closing the gap.

It's going to be weird seeing our last few ski resorts completely pivot away from winter sports and run solely as MTB / luge / flying fox / gondola destinations.

The smell of bushfire smoke these days just immediately makes me feel sick in the stomach and anxious.

Looks like I can't get 160mm fascia to replace on our house it only comes in 180mm does anyone know about fascia? Did the standard change in the past 30 years? Why? I guess I can just rip 180mm down to size but the whole house needs to be done eventually so maybe just had wider fascia in the one spot I'm fixing today ...

The 11.6km mountain biking and walking Pike29 Memorial Track will open on February 17. It will connect the Paparoa Track Great Walk to the Pike River Valley.

The track is the result of a partnership between DOC, Ngāti Waewae and families of the 29 men who died in the Pike River mine disaster in November 2010.

Pretty crazy that in 2024 you can get a key cut without photo ID, proof of identity, proof of residence, signature, or details being recorded.

Need to move a solid timber entertainment unit on Wednesday. Any ideas on how to do it safely? I was thinking wheels strapped to one end, scissor lift to get it up onto the trailer. Did look at hiring someone but $250 is a bit much.
