It's solar panel installation day here today.

So ironically there'll be no power for 4-6 hrs at some point today. Ironic because with a battery (not Tesla) power outages shouldn't happen anymore.

Have a great day folks

EDIT: So 2 hours late on time we'd been told phoned them to ask where are they (Ch Ch head company)long story short ph installer "I told them days ago still no panels" (due to a little #EpsteinWar delaying ships) and company failed to pass that on.

So no idea when now

So Friday they came and put in the structure for the panels, back Monday to do more stuff, panels are in Palmerston North so hopefully done early next week

All your chickens coming home to roost"

Wonder why we say this?

Clearly your chickens returning isn't a bad thing

It's because it's such a clear consequence of your actions (of having chickens)

IE It is such a predictable outcome

#NZtwits

I #googled "how much money do I need to feed a child for a day" & the #AI said "They prefer chicken nuggets"

So NZ was 44 - 4 (forty four for four) but that change after SA hit a 4

The B416 campaign is piping up again.

We should be organizing against them.

Anyone interested?

It has been incredibly sad to watch this #NZPol govt default to racism, victim blaming and division as a way of distracting the #Aotearoa #NewZealand public from their colossal social and economic failures since taking control in late 2023.

As a pākehā NZer, born in the 60's, I have witnessed the slow but mana enhancing transition of this country in its attempts to right the wrongs of the past.

In many ways there's been efforts from both right and left politicians to #ToitūTeTiriti. No matter how inconsistent it has been it has always felt like slowly but surely the NZ public is becoming more aware of its obligations and failings of the past and moving forward.

Under this #Luxon led govt of neoliberal racist oligarch enthusiasts turning the clock back to a time before I was born, I no longer recognise the country I was born as Tāngāta Tiriti.

I want to know from #NZTwits how we collectively stop this from continuing and what we must do to turn this shit train around?

I just found out that in #LethalWeapon, when #DannyGlover says, "I'm too old for this shit" he was, in fact, younger than I am now. And you know what? He was right.

All #NZTwits concerned about the validity of #NZPol electoral law and democracy, particularly in light of the #DropKick legislation being introduced to disenfranchise #NewZealand voters from having their civil right to exercise their democratic right to vote in elections, needs to watch this from NZ lawyer, Tania Waikato on #BHN last night.

Any #NZTwits familiar with answering GETS RFIs?
There's one out today from Wellington Council wanting information about what to do with electric bus batteries. In theory its right up my street but in reading it I feel like they are just asking for other people to do their homework for them.
For free.
I guess the motivation for me is that this could lead to paid work in future but really it just seems like a hustle.
Observations/advice appreciated. Oh wait, am I now asking you to do my homework for free?!

So do you suppose David Seymour's #Act Party were so keen to have Te Pāti Māori MP's jailed for performing a #haka because they didn't want them present as Seymour & Act attempt to rush their undemocratic and treacherous #RegulatoryStandardsBill through parliament under urgency?

Regardless of whether you support or oppose this treasonous bill, the dismantling of constitutional and democratic parliamentary process should alarm all #NZTwits. Perhaps #DavidSeymour sees this as a way of guaranteeing his ambition of bringing about a #CivilWar in #Aotearoa #NewZealand. #NZPol #AtlasNetwork #NZInitiative #TreatyOfWaitangi #TeTiritiOWaitangi #ToitūTeTiriti

Meet Hēki - the reo Māori word for 🥚. In June-ish, it'll become the most powerful electromagnet ever to fly to and be tested on the International Space Station. Built here in Aotearoa! It's a precursor or tech demo for a future ion thruster called Kōkākō - named for a native NZ bird 🐦

The #AtlasNetwork plan to exploit NZ's resources and water currently protected by #TeTiriti.

Ōtautahi, we're calling for community to mobile āpōpō in response to EFT-postle Tamaki protesting outside our youth health clinic. Come tell Tamaki that his hate has no home here, and to show anyone accessing healthcare tomorrow that our community is full of aroha and awhi for them.

Landing in Auckland today - is it safe to drive Auckland-Tauranga with current weather? #NZTwits #metservice

This is a song I wrote over 40 years ago after listening to too much #PinkFloyd. This version was recorded in 2015. I recently put this video together from a performance on a friends farm 2016 edited with asstd footage from the #NewZealand Film Archive.
I thought #NZTwits might enjoy this reflection on NZ and #NZPol at the beginning of the 1980s.

Fun #NZTwits #NZPol Poll.

This poll regards strategic voting preference.
The supposition is it's election day and, although polls are close, Labour, Greens and Te Pāti Māori are favoured as most likely to form a govt post #NZElection23
How will you vote? Apologies to those voting New Conservative or Freedom or whatever... leave a comment.
