  1. Load shedding is coming to Dhaka too! Need to get a Power Station and Portable Solar Panel ASAP.

    I don't have much space though. I need to keep the panel in my Balcony. 😒

  3. CW: Oil crisis - NZ Labour finds its voice

    Chris Hipkins pops up after a long absence and claims National are not prepared for the incoming oil shock.

    Given the IMF's warning that the fuel crisis is likely to lead to a global recession, Hipkins seems close to the mark.

    Luxon responded, that was why the government was "focused on avoiding the mistakes seen during the Covid response."

    Pardon? Is this somehow Labour's fault?

    It seems bizarre that Luxon isn't considering options like carless days and working from home, as many other countries are already doing. Especially when NZ is right at the far end of the supply chain.

    ---

    Please... take a moment to appreciate this classic gobbledygook from Luxon as he tries to think on his feet.

    "What I agree with is we want this resolved as quickly as possible. We want the parties negotiating, I know ceasefire negotiations, you know, we want ceasefire will remain holding, we want the parties negotiating a negotiated settlement."

    It's embarrassing that this inadequate man leads our country.

  4. We're off to Orange tomorrow, to take my housemate to the Asian grocery store so she can stock up on everything she eats from there. My guess is that this will be one of the last times we can take a longer* drive for such a small reason.

    I'm really going to cut down driving in the next couple of weeks. I'm trying to get my housemate to sort out her room so she can have a functional office in there as well, so we can perhaps start having her work from home a few days a week. We need to get her a new desk, and some more bookcases, I also need to spin her bed around 90° so this against her other wall to get everything to fit in there. She's not a neat person, and her bedroom is vmessy.. which is fine, it's her room and I'm not her mother (tbh, if I was I wouldn't worry about her space either).. so I think it's going to be hard work for her to tidy enough that we can move furniture.

    My hope is to sort out the house so that she can work from it and I can live in it without us wanting to murder each other.. with the goal of driving only maybe once or twice a week to help with the fuel crisis because it's only going to get worse towards the end of the month.

    * longer drive = more than the 10 minutes it takes to get into town. Orange is about 40 minutes away.
