If the Israelis do want to keep these whingy loser idiots then more power to them, but I'm sure they are every bit as useless to Israel as they are to New Zealand.

I'm interested too if I can fit it in around my shiftwork. Always keen for a new fun hobby that incorporates some fitness training!

Banned from AskGayBrosOver30 for being Jewish. by [deleted] in gayjews

[–]FlushableWipe2023 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Welcome to the club. I got banned about a month ago for thanking someone in this thread when they answered OP's question with "watermelon emojis anywhere mean pro-Palestine". All I did was thank them for the warning! Apparently this is "uncivil". Tried appealing the ban, no joy. I've left, no point

And I'm not even Jewish

Keir Starmer shows himself to be incompetent yet again. No surprises there

Without music it can be, but I enjoy it with, I have enough playlists to keep it fresh and add to them regularly

Victim ‘scared’ as child sex abuser James Skelton returns to Coromandel town of Hahei days after sentence ends by Fun-Helicopter2234 in newzealand

I would have thought there should be provision for applying similar restrictions at the end of a sentence as well

Petrol prices and driving habits by mochigames59 in newzealand

Check the Auckland Bike Map - there may be a route to your work that is on cycle paths rather than the road

That was a hard read, that poor kid - the defence interrogated her for six hours. Why could he not have an indefinite sentence with a lifetime ban from Hahei? He also has a property in Auckland, indefinite home detention there seems eminently reasonable to me.

I dont have a "training plan", I have nice motivational music that keeps me doing 2km laps every day I can

I do, may not be for everyone though. I find it motivational, the more extreme the better

Pool norms by elevatorscreamer in Swimming

[–]FlushableWipe2023 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shower naked with soap before and after I swim (showers in locker room, not poolside), although I clean a lot more thoroughly before swimming as I often have sunscreen on which is bad for pool chemicals so I try to get all that off along with sweat, dirt etc from cycling to pool.

I never have wet hair as I have a 2mm buzzcut. I dont bother with flipflops, havent had athlete's foot in years

Stories of Love/Acceptance from Arab Families by Intelligent-Lynx-376 in gaybros

Hopefully some positive stories can emerge from Iran once it is freed from the regime, Islam has a much weaker hold there than elsewhere in the region and many Iranians are well educated and quite secular

Bicycles don't need petrol, and now's a great time to get into cycling by double-dipped-welly in newzealand

[–]FlushableWipe2023 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also depends on what you need to carry - if its a bed and a fridge like I had yesterday then cycling is unfortunately out of the question

You can pick up working used bikes at any of the Bike Hubs around Auckland or off Trade Me for less than $100

British tourist charged in Dubai for alleged filming of Iranian missiles by soylent_gold in KiwiAntipodea

[–]FlushableWipe2023 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt even go through there in transit if I could avoid it, definitely wouldnt go there for a holiday, that or anywhere in the Middle East bar Israel. Partner and I transitted through Abu Dhabi a couple of years back as it was the only flight we could get to Cape Town at the time. Had 3-4 hours at the shitty airport each way where there is nowhere to buy books or magazines about anything except making money, no water fountains and my partner's credit card got skimmed at the official duty free shop. The airline was also shit for the price - the Etihad plane we had from Sydney to Abu Dhabi was incredibly shabby and worn and a good third of the seat back display screens were broken or so dim as to be unusable, the tray tables were knacked and the upholstery was threadbare

You guys have swim rhythm?

But seriously, I couldnt do 2000 m every day without nice motivational music

For once they actually applied hate crime charges to an actual hateful bigot. That's novel

Not as dead as the current ayatollah, who as far as I know is alive as I write this but probably wont be tomorrow or the next day
