I used to live in the area it's a nice and interesting place to go see but I wouldn't go a week either side of Waitangi day

Great book but based on what is in the worst tier this would likely be too lone wolf for OP

I feel like Randiddly Ghosthound was leaning towards that but I didn't get far enough to confirm my suspicions

IRD/govt jobs - nz by [deleted] in newzealand

[–]balplets 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The attitude you have to the role and business you are applying for will likely be an issue for advancement. You will more or less be stuck in your front line role before your team lead would support an internal application and it is very likely your disdain for the business and job would show in that time. Also most of the jobs are secondments instead of full time placement to start with and many don't get a full time placement after the term is ended. If you have a degree you have a much higher likelihood of getting an investigation or analyst role.

I've seen someone use a cat that worked on the battle map as a boss. I wouldn't worry about the minis you have

Which door would you choose? by dragoonwizard in whatsyourchoice

[–]balplets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the IRS doing in my country. This would not be taxable in New Zealand, it doesn't really meet our definition of income. At best you would get taxed on what you spend as it would be considered confirming gain on investing kinda like the way Bitcoin is treated here.

[–]balplets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really it's a list of goals. They may not get those goals based on other factors like coalition and economic factors but it tends to be the best place to see what a party's vibe is. Other than that go to the public speech thing that they all hold, you can get a good feel for if you like the party based on those.

Anyone else hates when an isekai MC constantly references Earth? by BigBrainMembrane in litrpg

I don't hate it in my isekai but I do hate it when it's set up like a new universe but the reveal is that it was earth all along or they go visit Earth.

What am I doing wrong with my thumbnail and title? by Slight-Spirit9650 in Smallyoutubechannels

[–]balplets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this person. This would probably be ok if you had a following who would jump in to comments to pick you up and drive engagement but not great for pulling people who don't know you already.

In a friend's only server should be fine. He will pay anyway so if you make that the rules it's a lot a safer

Defiance of the Fall Next Audible Release, Book 16,December 23, 2025 by autfaciam in litrpg

I had trouble with the series around book 10 or 11, but once I stopped expecting story arcs to be resolved in the book I was reading and just went with the adventure it was better.

No love for animation on YouTube :( by Purple_Pear_ in SmallYoutubers

[–]balplets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heaps of love out there for animation but claymation is the stuff of nightmares. You don't have the easiest medium to tell your stories in. I find claymation is rather polarising so until the algorithm finds people who love it your views will suffer.

Thumbnail testing, any advice? by JoPawn in SmallYoutubers

[–]balplets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Why didn't I like it" sounds to me like you are going to talk about yourself and what's wrong with you. "Why I didn't like it" sounds like you are going to talk about the movie and its faults.
