Is this in reference to an animal, vegetable or mineral? 🤷‍♀️

FYI, my husband's company has requested he fill up before midnight tomorrow because Z told them there will be a massive petrol hike after that time. #nzpol

Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music

Several dozen folks did

Some even dubbed music over the original clip.

I haven't been able to get this out of my head.

So I give you

A Bluesky exclusive:

Spots are still available for people with Long Covid/MECFS in Ōtepoti Dunedin to participate in free facilitated creative writing workshops. I'm one of the facilitators. There's no commitment—if you think you might be interested, get in touch.

Very, very good thread:

Love this song 🎵

A cloud covered Taranaki maunga with snow showing under the clouds. This is pretty good coverage down to a low level 🥶

I'm asking for my money back if Summer really is all over

I ventured warily in to the FB comments, and was very pleasantly surprised

My new favorite German word.

Numero uno.
Early for us.

Same! So often. But do I learn for next time? No I don't

Hmmmm🫤

Why did I never realise there are two of them? 🥰

And now I'm sure I heard her mew "Is this some kind of fucking joke?! I look utterly ridiculous in this fucking thing!"

Early evening swim was perfect! Sea was a bit chilly, but just perfect once in

I'm still marvelling at your luck. They're very special

What is this, a horror film PR poster? No, they're Snapdragon seed pods. Snapdragons are beautiful, colorful garden flowers but obviously these are the creepiest seed pods of any kind.

Today I visited Zealandia and of course asked about the chance of seeing the resident takahē.

Basically no chance, my guide replied. Their habitat is off-limited to visitors right now and they rarely venture beyond it.

Resigned to this, I sat down on bench to watch riflemen...and who peeked out?

😆

He's lucky he hasn't got a pin where it hurts, with this carry on

If you know anyone who’d have a use of a data consultant, python and SQL expert, Linux and cloud nerd and someone with managerial experience and a post grad science degree in Pōneke, please let me know.

I think we can do better. I'll start,

Thank you. I certainly have my moments. She is pretty content, which is the most important thing.

😆 🤣 😂

I am making myself wait until 5. It is very difficult this evening 🥂

Creating valuable time to enjoy a gin?

It was such a cool number too. Just rolled off the tongue

Funny the things that upset you. Disconnected Mum's phone this week after 40 odd years - she no longer knows how to use it. It was our childhood number 😪
