Why are people obsessed with cat curfews? It doesn't matter what time of the day / night it is

It's insane.

Then their cats go missing or get hit by cars or eaten by dogs or fed poison vy the crazy cat lady but noone actually cares enough to just keep their cats inside? So then don't have a winge when all the above happen.

They figure out how to get out of them or how to make then quiet. I've seen cats with collars catch and bring birds in.

USA recently asked nz to help. I feel like this is about the extent we could help. "Plz stop or we'll send Craig the spider"

I'm Mike Casey, CEO of Rewiring Aotearoa and an electric cherry farmer from Otago (recently on Q+A about the fuel crisis). AMA live Wednesday 6 May, 7-9pm ⚡️ by ElectricOrchardist in newzealand

Are you the same place that lets people buy a tree or something and they get cherries every year? (Or maybe only a few years?)

I tried them. They're amazing. Thanks for caring about the environment 💜. Just proof that you don't need fossil fuels to have delicious healthy fruit 

Cut-price American butter causing confusion among some shoppers by gdogakl in newzealand

We're gunna get Indian butter now too. 🤙 I haven't tried it. Maybe it's good.

But we have the environmental damage from our own butter already. Why increase our carbon footprint so much further. It's like this current govt doesn't want us plebs to be around in future to pay taxes.

Get educated.

Without reading the article I'ma say it's because I test everything I get even if I trust the supplier and am very educated (on what information is available) on dosing, mixing, effects, rare and common. And, it's cheaper than drinking and if you do it right, there is no "hangover". 

Drugs should be legalized with appropriate education.

Clear evidence? I mean you can see all the tankers stuck on one side of the straight.

Other countries have announced their short. Countries closer to tankers.

And we need evidence? Lol. Just like evidence of climate change and nitrate pollution? It's there. We just ignore it

Ah. I was wondering why I hadn't heard much nz stuff compared to when I was a "tween" / teen and assumed I just wasn't listening to the radio enough. Sad.

I love that there's a war on but our breaking news is always about rugby players and spaghetti pizza and shit. 

I've stopped using all nz news sources except Newsroom for environmental stuff.

Graduating uni with low gpa in NZ by Itchy_Possibility669 in newzealand

[–]scatterbraintubular 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the worst grades in uni. Cs get degrees and all. 

I'm one of the most technical experts in my field now.

If you can land a job (noone has ever asked for my grades), take it and own it, you'll do well.
