Luxon is supposedly more personable in real life. Well, maybe not then 🤔

The Boss is singing about ICE on the Streets of Minneapolis. You won't hear this played at the Kennedy Center or on Fox News. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWKS...

That's Billie's dinner sorted, and tomorrow's meals too I expect.

How can this be a comfortable bed. Billie overwhelming a cardboard box about 5 sizes too small for her 🤔

It turns out that the prices Withjoy .com quote for NZ accommodation, etc. are in USD but unstated and they refuse to engage with emails requesting a reversal. Leaves a sour note on my nephew's wedding which used WithJoy to issue invites with Gisborne hotel 'offers'. AVOID WITHJOY LIKE THE PLAGUE!

@dallasbarnett.com Really enjoying Plur1bus. I figure there's a second season coming cos Carol not going to sort that shit in the last episode of S01.

Stepson's dogs Brie & Mya enjoying their Xmas treat from us. A dehydrated bulls penis each. Yum, I guess 😀

Something to mull over as Christmas dinner is absorbed. Eventful and challenging year coming up folks! substack.com/home/post/p-...

It's clouded over so Grace in full relaxation mode is absorbing the heat from the deck .

If only Aotearoa's government was wise enough to observe and learn from the mistakes of others 🙄

As if things weren't turning to shit enough for our government, we're running out of energy. www.poweringchange.nz/assets/Tab-3...

I'm amazed how Billie can devour a whole rabbit about half her own size, in 2 sittings. Currently absorbing her bounty and no doubt will expect dinner tonight as usual.

Hello Luxon and co... Are you listening? youtu.be/8sa7uh192r0

Bit of inspiration here Gav ?

No other car magazine would put a cover like this on the newsstand. That’s why we’re your favourite. 😘 In shops December 16th. Pre-orders open now: copaceticmagazine.co.uk/product-cate...

Q: What's the solution to both of these issues? www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic... www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa... A: Widespread solar uptake and a national EV fleet, with V2G functionality. This government is soooooo much behind play it's embarrassing.

Powerful message. All power to them!

Canada is a beautiful country, particularly BC, and doesn't deserve this shitfuckery. All power to the 1st nations involved.

Clear day so PV is cranking. Drop off was complying with 5 kW phase cap so we plugged in another EV to charge. Export rate up to 10 kW/phase next week solving that but still seeing inverter compromise due to Powerco supply being 240V =, not the 230V our inverter must be set to.

#BHN Are you serious Chloe Swarbrick? Can you please introduce me to your new best bud so we can have a chat 🤣🤣🤣 www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl_L...

@chewienz.bsky.social When you back mate. There's some business back home that needs your input 🤬

www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/3... Luxon essentially reading from Winston's script. Does he realise that this will seal the deal in terms of his coalition being dog tucker at the next election?

So the question here is whether Luxon is onside with this or is he just lacking the spine to stop his junior coalition partners do whatever TF they want? www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Spot the wood pidgeon (kereru) in the red magnolia.

Our magnolias are putting on quite the show this spring. Dull day for photos but with gales forecast got in before they're tattered. NZ native wood pidgeon (kereru) in the 3rd photo had the same idea feasting on the blooms.

Clear cool day for a new record generation for our solar. System is interpreting the 5kW house array as consumption as Fronius can't see the export on the phase it's on. 37kWh total export and both EVs charged by 2:00pm and HWC up to temp. Where to put tomorrow's generation? Export is lost gain!

Anybody else being denied access to their Ecotricity NZ customer portal? Same customer # and password but continually brings up a 'processing error' today.

It's just that Trump has a strong aversion to the truth.

Clever bit of reasoning from Rory Sutherland

The view from our deck at 4:00 yesterday. Peaked soon after at 182 cusecs.

I've seen a few editorials and videos in this vein recently. Houston you seem to have a problem. www.notesfromthecircus.com/p/the-plot-a...

@bernardchickey.bsky.social Peter not on BS it seems. Please pass this onto him youtu.be/jrhREluLdBs

Grace lurking in the wisteria

The media is fizzing about a new natural gas find in Taranaki. But "levels would equate to about 3 percent of the country's current annual gas output" so just a blip in the larger scheme. I smell a propaganda campaign to make the CoC's O&G policies smell better. www.stuff.co.nz/business/360...

November in NZ always a bit variable but 1,128kWh from our 8.2kW inverter is fine. Octopus account in credit for the first time this summer

Worth a watch! youtu.be/U8pLrRkqbb0

I'm finding that it isn't possible to view YouTube videos embedded in BlueSky posts. After a delay an error code comes up and the workaround is to then click on the YouTube logo at bottom right to view directly there. @bsky.app are you aware of this?

Great TED Talk on where we're heading in terms of energy (and transportation). For me the long term strategy and their economic might is definitely something we in the West should wake up to. youtu.be/VXwGvLj4rak

No internet back when Frank wrote this but he certainly had a grip on where media was moving. Welcome to BlueSky peeps. youtu.be/iiCQcEW98OY
