Very interesting. Going to go a bit askew from topic here. I agree that Farmers (and the rest of us) are suffering a mental health crisis which needs addressing. It is hard to not feel like a victim with the 'weight of the world' on one's shoulders. But, ...
And sorry for getting your name wrong - Matiri.
Maybe, or nothing to lose while Collins is stealing news cycles for being a total clown. But, imagine if they bring the rona with them... massive gain for Seymour. The most underestimated villain, but a villain to beware of.
James is a person I really like, so yes, I'd be interested in reading him. Cheers for the heads up, I have been despairing the state of most journalism lately. But journalism is still orders of magnitude smarter than the comments following any science ...
Is newsroom normally worth reading? That was excellent. "The people running large food companies have been degrading our health and our kids' health and wellbeing for years with their nutritionally empty products, that they aggressively market, especially ...
I kinda like it despite that it's a lame PR attempt by Barebie (TM) to pretend it's not all about getting a ken and a malibu beach house.
It's as clear as day what's coming if we don't act against our selfish nature. And yet they bicker over travel bubbles, profits, 'proprietary rights' FFS (same money hungry screwed up BS that prevented me carrying out work on Kauri dieback btw). The Herald...
Well, who's the 'expert' in bed with? "the podcast War Room: Pandemic, hosted by Steve Bannon, published this (removed link) video interview with molecular biologist Robert Malone, a former researcher at the Salk Institute." Seems he's just mouthing off to...
But, but, the Barbie doll said!
Not sure I understand your reply very well, but I do appreciate that social media is far more responsible for the viral spread of nonsense than the cliques of hard drug users we have in every town. I've found a pattern that might not be true outside of my ...
It's really unfortunate the pop up clip when you enter the page treats listeners like pre-schoolers. I was over it in seconds. FLICC, as Andre highlights, is of great interest to me. They've nailed the techniques/misunderstandings people use. Like my ...
Meme time. You know I can't live in your ghost houses bro.
Thank you. Some BS should not be allowed to fly.
Look, if you are really concerned with using 20% coal just put some solar on your roof and get on with it. Your concern is as fake as the angry man in the cafe. We wean off coal as we increase renewable capacity. That'd be my plan, anyway.
You know I had some clown stand on his feet in a cafe and start jabbing his finger at me while stating exactly this fact(indonesian coal); only last Sunday. That has me believe yours is hardly an original thought, but is, in fact, a Newstalk ZB talking ...
When it comes to mental health - a good cup of tea and a natter goes a long way. While a decaf soy latte is basically a declaration of needing a good cup of tea and a natter.
"only 80 something percent" - the glass is nearly 20% empty - do you not see!
Agreed. What I like most about this idea is that, with only a few operators having 'all the batteries' - the issue of dumping will be markedly less, and the issue of recycling will be worth pursuing. Also, very high financial incentives to bring in solar, ...
1% interest on $900 000 (average NZ house price, June 2021) is $9 000 or paying an extra $180 pw ish - to banks, no gain at all for it. That's all it will take to completely smash the budgets of many. Nobody said anything about bringing financial systems ...
That's outstanding. So much practical (and forward) thinking. Impressed. The fuel savings must be huge.
This is how the moneyed folks do land grabs these days. Clearing out the natives is frowned upon but given a chance many would still do that too. It's really simple. Get everyone buying in seemingly good conditions then jack up the interest rates and BOOM,...
Seems about enough to run an alarm system 24/7. Maybe?
Agreed. It's a tedious load of wank.
I've stopped driving, smoking, using a phone... and life is BETTER than it was. I've shifted to part time work because consumption for the sake of it is a tedious bore. That made life EVEN BETTER. Then I put some of the spare time into helping others less ...
Perhaps. I think ultimately the rich will have to tighten their belts as their level of consumption is simply ridiculous. But those, like me, slowly building resilience into systems will continue to accrue the benefits of working with nature, community, ...
It was one of those 'interest free' student loans (with monthly fees). But, when no longer a student, they pounce! I'll go in, pay it off and shut it down. Cheeky buggers.
Well, if you're paying a power bill every month, which is par for the course of living in a dwelling, solar is an investment. An investment that will return, in savings, more than any bank is offering. I'm not so sure about growth, cancer is a growth, and ...
Just as an aside. Recently I had 2 accounts with matching balances, except one was $1000 in debit, the other $1000 in credit. I was charged $6 (for the month) on the debit. I was given $0.10 interest for the credit. Banks, pfft. Who'd invest in banks?
... our dirtiest rivers. Invest in WeTheBleeple with an EV for clean...
Also needle phobic - which probably saved my life in the 80's... I also let them know I'm phobic when getting shots/blood tests etc. They're always really good about it. Only had one who was a clumsy oaf - Doctor not a nurse, go figure. 1st shot Friday.
Gosh, well you've enlightened us now. Who would have guessed the multiple articles saying the cycle bridge idea is unpopular meant that the cycle bridge idea was unpopular. Looks like Samantha Ramsdell has competition.
