Do you think the same education “official” (cough cough) that stuffed up calculating staffing levels for public education did the same for public health? $1000 after hour fees for NZ’ers emergency care? Erica and Reti in the firing line - surely. #nzpol #nzpolitics #NationalNotFitToGovern

Our new parklets have been a success and I’m so glad this is working for our hospitality sector. Now imagine this all the way down Courtenay Place. Wellington will thrive. www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3605...

Update on the original English Elm raft bonsai in my collection, seen here with the tree as it was after airlayering by Sean Stolp in 2018.

An update on my European Beech bonsai, in development with me for nearly 25 years now! A couple of weeks ago I gave the crown a good thinning out, removing a fair amount of ramification, basically to encourage more strength in that lower branch.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

A little water oak I grew from an acorn. It’s about 4-5 years old . Was going to repot this year but I think I will give it one more year. It had a hard root prune year before and has come back strong - these trees are so tough. #bonsai #tree #gardening #loveoftrees

New in PN: AOC shows how to fight back and stand strong "Prominent figures standing up can undermine the climate of fear that MAGA relies on to impose terror. AOC’s work on behalf of her constituents and refusal to be intimidated are models of resistance other Democrats would do well to imitate."

As Becky said, if I walked down your long driveway and took photos of your house and put them on the internet, you’d be livid. But that’s what Google Street View has been doing. While it says it’s an “error” the scale of it is significant.

Little Japanese Cedar is starting to shape up after resetting branches back to new buds. Once they've established a bit, I can shorten them all and then let them get dense foliage pads. Then, a lower profile pot. 🌱🇳🇿 #Bonsai

THIS bears a lot of repeating. Jimmy, we get that film sets are not democracies - your forty years as the most notorious control freak in Hollywood makes the point loud and clear. But out here in the real world? You've got to play well with the other children and learn to share your toys.

If it’s not clear, offering to swap QE2 covenanted land for native forest is cynical bollocks because QE2 land is already protected in perpetuity. They want to swap land they can never use for currently protected land they can’t.
