For folks here (rather than LinkedIn), my last day at NZ Police is 31 October. Taking a little break and welcoming our second child in February. Let me know if you have any part-time contract work coming up where I might be able to add value!

honestly one of the most burgeoisie things I've ever posted with the price of cup of soup these days

9 out of 10 doctors agree

Have you ever made a cuppa soup and been caught between wanting more soup and wanting good flavour? Now there's a solution! Try "TWO cup of soup packets in one cup"! Don't let the taste go to waste! 1 out of 2 taste testers called it "yum"! Continental calls it "not what our product is designed for"

millennia from now, when the heat death of the universe is impending, a scrappy set of atoms at the universal coordinates where planet Earth once was will vibrate with their final joules to repeat on zoom (bc even in this scenario zoom still exists)

You have 30 seconds left to vote on this motion.

months from now, when the internet is but a distant memory as artificial intelligence has terminated all unnecessary exuberances, an isolated server forgotten at the bottom of the world will repeat on zoom

You have 30 seconds left to vote on this motion.

long after the AGM has concluded and hundreds of nerds drift off to a sweet slumber, a quiet voice will repeat on zoom

You have 30 seconds left to vote on this motion.

they did (for board member elections), so I'm not sure why members motions couldn't also be? just timing and deadlines I guess
