Soft Rains Day. "Today is August 4, 2026, in the city of Allendale, California. Today is Mr. Featherstone's birthday. Today is the anniversary of Tilita's marriage. Insurance is payable, as are the water, gas, and light bills." RIP Ray Bradbury, 1920-2012

A long-ish thread on PM Luxon's foot-in-mouth speech in Rotorua this week, and a theory on why it happened. 1/

whenever the cat is walking around looking real tough, we call him "Jack Creature", for obvious reasons
Doctor: I'm afraid it's bad news. You have curiosity. Cat: Bugger.
