  • Enjoying my weekend (Monday and Tuesday) with the first I went for a walk down to my local cafe and had a eggs bene (with smoked salmon) along with a bowl of mochaccino – a nice way to start the day with a late brunch by getting me out of the home and getting in…

  • This week has been pretty good with it ending the week where I have found out I’ll end up getting a bonus for the work for the last 6 months of the year which will be nice for when I head overseas – paying for travel insurance along with a bit of spending money. It’ll…

  • Another day another dime and this morning Santa came late and dropped off a chest freezer that’ll be put into my office (no room in the kitchen) where I’ll gradually build up a good supply of food so that there is less temptation to buy take outs. It’s been a week of taking this approach…

  • I headed down to the local Harvey Norman to look at a small chest freezer but before that mum shouted me brunch at the local cafe/bakery – eggs bene with salmon and wilted spinach on toasted ciabatta. It is a treat that I look forward to because for all my culinary skills I am horrible at…

Personally I think that Ari Melber is being far to generous as to the motivations behind what Elon said when he was interviewed at the New York Times DealBook Summit. I’m a great believer in Occam’s razor – “the simplest answer…

  • Below are two videos talking about the fiscal direction of New Zealand and changes – watch both of them then compare what they have said, now that they’re in government, when compared to what was said on the campaign trail because I think what you’re going to find is that the sort of rhetoric about…

  • For those who haven’t been keeping up with the latest ‘trend’ on the right I’m unfortunately going to take away the small joy that you have because you didn’t know about this phenomenon. The phenomenon I am referring to is the whole ‘trad wife’ (aka ‘traditional wife’) movement and like all movements that start online…

  • Once again we have conservatives in the US complain when they don’t get the outcome they wanted (link) while being being obscenely hypocritical in the process. Does anyone remember almost two decades ago when conservatives were touting the merits of democracy regarding same sex marriage and how it should be left up to the voter…
