Someday he might be hiding out in NZ

I released this album yesterday. It's only available at cheeselovers.bandcamp.com/album/backbl... Check it out. Would be a real shame if not too many people got to hear it.

I'm at the #MegaStrike repping for public education

Sigh. My tax return is filed for my self-employed income. I used to feel okay about my tax money going where it's needed. Nowadays, not so much. Anyways, tax wealth, not work.

This one's very important for EVERYONE - the RSB opens us up to an American hellscape with many unintended consequences. It's part of the Coalition agreement, and they passed the first stage through urgency. But this Select Committee process is arguably MORE important than the TPB. SUBMIT. #nzpol

/waypoint command has been added to MCStacker at mcstacker.net/1.21.6.php . The locator bar is a cool addition. #mcdev #Minecraft

Hey one of the largest disability support providers in the country has COMPLETELY RUN OUT OF MONEY and no one is hearing me SCREAM IT FROM THE HILLTOPS. Please boost this and please send it to your MPs.

Now that Aotearoa NZ is reminiscing about going into lock down 5 years ago. Here's a UHF antenna I hobbled together out of fencing wire, chicken wire and other bits so that I could watch all the announcements on broadcast TV.

Half of Tesla’s value gone in three months! This is the first time a Tesla-related crash might actually save lives.

Pour one out for Nikola Tesla. Just imagine having your legacy dragged through the mud like this.

Need some rain today. I have only about 2 inches of water above the outlet in the water tank. I don't want to fork out $$$ for a water truck.

Without the right tools but two sash clamps, I was able to extricate this axle from a sticky bearing. Only took 3 days to figure it out. I tried all kinds of things. Car jacks, etc. Sash clamps FTW.

Not a bad way to pass the time while waiting in the car.

This National/ACT government are working from the same old neoliberal playbook, defund public services, run them down, then use that as an excuse to privatize them. It’s based on ideology and the people who pay the true price are everyday Kiwis.

The campground I'm at has reasonable internet connectivity. Not good enough for Netflix but good enough to make a submission against the treaty principles bill. Only about 7 more days till the deadline.

You don't expect to hear Lady Saw on the in-store music when you walk into the supermarket. But it makes sense if it's guest vocals on a No Doubt song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvuV...

Is there much interest in this type of the before I chuck it? 1966 btw.

Benjamin Zephaniah "If you didn't have troublemakers, most women wouldn't have the right to vote, a black person wouldn't be talking to a white person and I'd be back in slavery. We need troublemakers to challenge the establishment. I want to be one of those people."

I just signed - will you join me? our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/ka...

A mate send me this and I thought it was fake. But it's real. Steven Seagal (with fake patois) feat Lady Saw. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Dvs...

This came on exptv the other night with no identifying info about artist or song. So Google found it for me after I hummed it into its search thing. Luckily it's a widely covered traditional Native American hymn. So it was easy to track down. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPDn...

Great interactive of electronic music genres. Dunno who comes up with these names though. music.ishkur.com

Son was in Japan for a school trip. Was struggling with gift ideas for me. So I just just asked him to get me something small, inexpensive, electronic and interesting. He nailed the brief by getting me the Otamatone. Can't wait to run this weird synth through an effects chain.
