@pbsnews.org thank you for the wonderful pbs news weekend with John Yang and crew. :) I hope in time, it will come back. 💜

Jack Smith's Deposition. I wish this came out sooner. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lR-b...

5 Years ago, Trump incited a mob of angry folks to attack the US capital because he didn't want the VP to certify the results of the 2020 election and accept that he lost the election. The truth hurts doesn't it?

Happy New Year, I'm enjoying some serious rain at the moment. Muggy summer moments of zen while watching 24 Hours of Stand-up with @joshjohnsoncomedy.bsky.social on YT. Funny storytelling. I hope he comes to Aotearoa some day.

Happy 2026. May it be better than 2025 to you and yours. I know I'm hoping for something better. All the best.

Happy #Solstice — and sending light as #Hanukkah ends and #Christmas approaches. 🕎 🎄

Australia, Bondi Beach, I'm sorry to hear such violence on #hanukkah. Just terrible. I'm sad to see this happen to you. Kia Kaha from New Zealand/Aotearoa.

The best thing I saw today and for a good cause. Something so many of us grew up on. youtu.be/SRMLf0trtNA?...

It’s been months in the making, with conversations and sharing insights — and it’s finally here! I look forward to understanding some tips for making better AI prompts for what I'm doing. #UX #UXAuckland #AIUX #AILearning #AIPlay #AucklandTech #DesignCommunity #ProductDesign

I'm curious about boxes lately, how the shape of the box cut out becomes the box itself with folding. I've been flattening boxes from food items for recycling, trace it onto watercolour paper and then fold it back up into a box again. And just paint on it. I like the small boxes especially.

Ok, so I finished the "Throne of Glass" series with "Kingdom of Ash" and wow..what a good story ending and I enjoyed just reading for the storytelling and images that were created in my mind. I still love Manon and The 13. Now I've started on "A Court of Thorns and Roses" series by Sarah J. Maas.

ok finished Sarah J. Maas "Empire of Storms" and I feel like the whole family got together to finally start consummating plans to build up for the big take down the big bads. Do I need to slow down? Only 2 more books to go in the series. whew.

I finished another Sarah J. Maas book, "Queen of Shadow". whew..sometimes, it's hard to put down as it all came together. :). And I wondered if there's been thoughts of making a series to watch as well? I guess I'll have to investigate. :) cheers!

I finished another Sarah J. Maas book, "Heir of Fire", and it's getting exciting to know what happens next! Seeing the protagonist coming into her own power is exciting storytelling. I wonder if I should read "Assassin's Blade" next? According to Ms. SJM, that's recommended. 🔥

I've been reading the Sarah j. maas series Throne of Glass and at a sad part in Crown of Midnight that I was not expecting or liking. 😭🥹😢. RIP Princess of Courage and Honour.

get ready for the @figma.com Config watch party! Cheers!

Why do I feel so strongly about addressing accessibility in digital products? Because every day, we rely more on digital tools just to participate in daily life— with working, connecting, and using services. Solving these challenges now, is future-proofing our own lives.

@saturdaynightlive.bsky.social was bloody awesome tonight in NZ. Best thing I saw represents my babyhood. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iu4a...

Happy Waitangi Day! Honour The Treaty!

@schiff.senate.gov - part of Elon Musk's approach to business is to do alot of things fast and hard, requiring adaptability from business entities. What are you & Dems doing to deal with this his approach of using gov as a public business? Run, don't walk to deal with him.

oh what a sweet game on the google - g.co/doodle/q4pvrxn

Perhaps we should do what Germany did and make the "Hitlergruss" total verboten. But hey, social media is all about the attention regime. *looking for her painter's tape*

132 Years ago, this happened to the Hawaiian Kingdom. Always good to remember this coup d'etat because it affected me in ways I did not understand enough to describe. #kiakaha www.instagram.com/p/DE7vqOcvUA...

I've been sketching out some ideas for the Lunar Calendar year of the Serpent, sometimes I like to draw the little bits before I bring it together. Anyone else does this?

Happy New Year from Tamaki Makaurau, Aotearoa!

#procreate #artvsartist2024 🎨✨ With my new ipad, the 2025 plan is to do more art in Procreate and learn Procreate Dreams! I studied faces and bright colours. So much to learn!

RIP President Jimmy Carter. You are the first POTUS that I remember from my childhood. Bless!

I've told folks about Affinity, something I use happily, right now, they have a nice #BlackFridaySale that's worth you taking a look at. So if you're looking for design software with one license that universally works on your pc, mac, ipad then check it out. affinity.serif.com/en-us/

@jay.bsky.team It was wonderful to see you talk about Bluesky on CNN. I've been here for a year now. Already finding my twitter friends here recently with a goal to use it more. Looking forward to see what happens next. Cheers!

@michaelclawson.bsky.social hey hey, hello there! Good to see you here! :)

This is beautiful!! Speak up People!!

brillant, we need to stamp out imported BS. I got real issue to deal with at the moment. Toitu Te Tiriti!!

Oh wow, hello Bluesky! What a nice message because I forgot I've been here for a while! I may not be in the first 10, but I'm 80507 out of over 10 Million butterflies. :) Rather cool and a nice surprise for a social place to hang out and share these moments.

Totally enjoyed that #DNC2024 DJ Cassidy #DNCRollCall music so I made a song list! Enjoy! 🔥🥰💜 open.spotify.com/playlist/6yo...

I've been inspired to create social images for the VP of the United States because I'm feeling great about the direction the US can go under a woman leader. We need to go in a better direction! #ImWithKamala #KamalaHarris2024

Mānawatia a Matariki Aotearoa! A beautiful day to enjoy the season of renewal.

I woke up to a gorgeous morning to the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year in Aotearoa/New Zealand. To me, we're going into winter as it's been colder every night. I created something up to reflect the oceanic winter solstice from art I'm creating for Matariki holiday. #wintersolstice

I love bright colours, I don't mind the vibrant shock of neon colours simply because it makes me smile. So I've played with Lumi #Gansai Neon #Watercolours to test the colours with doodles on watercolour paper. #NeonDreams #conceptart #artwork #artist #creativity #practicemakespermanent

I made something artistic and cute for the #Equinox. I hope it gives the meaning of the Equinox - the equal time for day and night that we experience twice a year no matter where we are on our earth. #GoodbyeSummer #HelloAutumn #Change

After doing #SecretlyImprov, we got a #UXHappyHour event scheduled. Let's catchup and share what's been going on...as we celebrate the change of the seasons. :) I miss you summer. Find the details: www.meetup.com/user-experie...

I just published Exploring the Intersection: A Designer’s Journey in Art, Tech, and Web3 Collaboration. haunanipao.medium.com/exploring-th...

I am pleased that I got my lens handle, hey.xyz/u/haunani, through my shefi #cohort9 so I can share my adventures and insights in the world of #web3. I learned alot and ready for more web3!

Happy New Year 2024. Tonight’s gin and tonic is Good George “The Fuck Stop Here 2023” gin. Quite delicious. Look at those gold flakes! Getting my gin on. good luck folks.

@captainpancakes.bsky.social - right?

So I appreciate the Māori singer and storyteller named Stan Walker, with this soulful beautiful voice. I learned about him from his song "Aotearoa". Today, he dropped a video called "I am" from the Ava DuVernay film "Origin". And I just had to share. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IK8O...
