While that's really cool and useful, it might be the way a couple of mods interact as opposed to a specific one.

I know Auckland lockdowns were longer and more difficult. But they are incorrect. They weren't "the worst in the world". Melbourne had the longest lockdowns in the world.

Auckland had an extra 3-4 months than the rest of the country (for a total of about 6, but Melbourne had basically 9 months.

Well you've been reading incorrect.

I live in NZ and was here all through covid. We had, outside Auckland, a total of 8 weeks lockdown, then some mild restrictions for a few weeks, then business as usual.

Places like Melbourne and the UK had over a year of restrictions and many more months of lockdown

NZ had relatively a very short lock down and were one of the few oecd countries that was back to regular life in 2020. Other than wearing masks in certain places you could go to restaurants, movies, regular shops etc.

Eventually there was another lock down, for most of the country it was much shorter. One town had to go longer though cause they kept having cases pop up.

You just described shaun to a tea. Fantastic analysis, bit dry and long.

Love his work

Prometheus is a great example of "what could have been". Great themes, fantastic visuals, some cool ideas, but... I don't know what the word/phrase is but the people, their motivations and actions are almost all just ridiculous.

To call it all off, they just abandon the interesting potential they set up by killing Shaw, all the engineers, and basically repeating the movie in covenant.

I recall there is a similar thing you can do with haste 1r goblin and +x/+0 spell.

I thought there was a way to get the mana without that green sorcery, though I don't quite remember how

Happened with fetterman too. In fact, even people like JD vance (no one thought he was cool though) used to shit on trump.

How quickly the wealthy/powerful bootlick for more wealth/power is terrifying.

People who's politics are their whole identity and just looking to dunk on "the enemy"

The guns would probably kill him... Mission failed successfully

It would be somewhat understandable if they were actually ideologically consistent..

But watch that person bend over backwards to say why Elon musk (or Melania trump) shouldn't be kicked out of the country, or have his citizenship revoked, after it came out he was doing the exact same "illegal immigrant" thing.
