climbing sznnnnnnn. i might have heard somebody get very injured the other day. definitely heard the impact of a body hitting the ground in a way it’s not supposed to…and saw a bunch of medics and SAR in the area on our hike out…

thinking about throwing together a post with some recent climbing photos, maybe even some photos from stuff from last year too.

“ The show was cool though. Perfect night for it, and there were exactly 201 drones operating the show. This number was chosen, apparently, because the previous NZ record for such a show was 200 drones. So uhh, suck it, those guys.”

never been to a drone show!

Weird that these articles never seem to mention the corporate and individual culpability of research and development and food science as it relates to the obesity epidemic. This is, intentionally and not, largely the consequence of large food/bev corporations.
