neb: So the surgery and hormone therapy was a success!

Yep  Seems to be working  :)

It's effectively a four-day weekend, so I expect that most of the MSM will have the majority of the A-team on leave and the B-team on captioning and other such tasks.
Sigh

Except that was shown on the 18th April, Tuesday last week.

Went to a swanky restaurant last week and saw this on the dessert menu:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't baked cookie dough..... just a cookie????

neb: Edible cookie dough is a thing in the US (you can tell from the non-NZ name for a biscuit that it's an amerikken import), so this is edible cookie dough that's been heated up a bit.

If I saw that on the menu I'd do a 180 on the spot while muttering Rodney Rude's comments about McAmerica.

Weirdly, considering, I did not order it, but went for the cheeseboard and a boozy hot chocolate.

That perfect match you met on-line may be your sibling!

For those in Wellington, today's WTF is the traffic on SH1, SH2 and the Wellington Motorway.

"Our deadline for guaranteed Christmas delivery has now passed, but you can still order for delivery in January 2021."

This article appeared in the New Zealand Medical Journal recently. It describes research analysing New Zealand's ability to feed itself during different nuclear winter scenarios, including one resulting from a total war that destroys Russia and the West. The news isn't all that bad for us. Apparently we would survive the bombs and fallout and be able to grow enough food to keep all of us from starving even in the worst conditions. 

What I wonder, and what the article doesn't mention, is what might happen to us when the military remnants of destroyed countries realise this is a good place to be and start heading this way. With the northern hemisphere a radioactive wasteland and no remaining international order, what is to stop any surviving warships from simply moving in and taking over? Could we even resist a modern aircraft carrier or battleship?
