Cute Evil. Craft beer junkie. Turophile. Amerikiwi. Just a Kansas City, MO girl living in a Kiwi world. Mouthpiece of Yeastie Boys. I'd be a much better unicorn. Trying to figure out which social media platform to use. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yikes! I was there a year ago and that is a significant change!

Ouch! Hope your bruising is mild!

Perhaps that’s why we get along. 🤔

Chorus makes a profit, the government owns 61% of it. There is no need to sell it off, and in a time where we are running an infrastructure deficit in large part due to repeated asset sales, maybe just maybe we shouldn't fucking do this.

The timeline for the Chorus sale is before the next election.

Early next year, to artificially pump the books in the short term for Budget 2026 while fucking over everyone in NZ for the foreseeable future.

#AcademicSky I need your input!!
I need to set up a new research database and am looking for your recommendations. I’ve used MS Access forever, but isn’t being supported by MS any longer. What do you use for long term qualitative data retention? TIA!!

I have a sneaking suspicion it’s going to be another rubbish day at work so starting it off with some joy.

Have you ever tried it? @beerdiary.bsky.social hated pumpkin until I made him a pumpkin pie. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Everyone’s tastes are different.

Annikakes @annikakes.bsky.social · 2d

Once a year was always sufficient for pumpkin pie.
