Which costs more, a kg of that steak or a tank full of petrol?
Auckland gas is up 40 cents per litre, about NZ $1.60/gallon, or about a dollar in the US.
That sucks, Marisa. I look forward to reading his thoughtful and contrite response.
Thoughts, @charlotteclymer.bsky.social?
Did they credit you?
I’m charging my Nissan Leaf now at a fast charger in Auckland. In the 10 minutes I’ve been here, I’ve seen 3 BYDs drive past. They’re everywhere, and they’re excellent and affordable. So are MG, Kia, Hyundai, Jaecoo, Zeekr …
What I’m saying is the US is falling way behind on this, and it’s dumb.
In today’s NZ Herald
I should note that, when I asked Holtz about this, he also lied to me.
I covered him for The Minnesota Daily when he was at Minnesota. When the possibility of the Notre Dame job came up, he lied to his players consistently and vociferously. I’d rarely seen people so bitter as these players were at Holtz.
Any info on when the Audible version will be available? (I want to see if it’s available in New Zealand — the answer often is no.)
Look, I'm just a cook, but it seems like the reasons should have come first.

Can Jim do a guitar setup for me?
Mate, I spent what felt like a week talking to FedEx this morning. Their (“improved”) AI lady would/could not answer my very simple question, and would not transfer me to a human until I lied to her about why I was calling. I don’t feel bad, and I’m on Team Clegg on this one.
And you're sure you want to be in elected office? Noble, sure, but not heaps of fun right now I'd reckon.
It's a tie:
- Excuse me while I whip this out.
- We're on a mission from God.
The dumbest possible response would be essentially no response, and here we are.
Remember independent and effective regulation? We've still got it in New Zealand. It's pretty nice.

Good. You surely were surprised then to learn that it was both illegal and unethical
Is this something from the news, or …?
@delphijunkie.bsky.social are you asking or telling? Because I do if you want to know
I’m a bona fide lefty of long standing and I generally like Jasmine Crocket. But this is where she loses me. If you can’t handle proper journalism and reasonable criticism the Republican Party will be happy to welcome you with open arms.
A good friend here in Auckland — a native Kiwi who's as white New Zealand's soccer uniforms — is going to LA for the NZ pool round games. He's determined to come, so I've urged him to only bring a burner phone and take other steps to protect himself. Still worried for him.
My wife frequently comments that the fact that he no longer gives a fuck has made him just so much funnier lately.
Also interested to learn how often it’s actually used for deportations.

Help out an American expat. Can they A) do this and B) complete this monstrosity before the election?
Something tells me that if you were them, a lot would be different.
