Christmas tree farm (Taylor's version)

Missing the HDU gig because I'm in hospital with a dumb anaphylaxis and have recovered but still need to be under observation

Whitcoulls don't stock my book so it has been banned and I am a victim of censorship.

is fiction a superstimulus?

Shout out to me for finishing the last 200 pages of a book in the 2 days before it was due.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but this whole renters don’t pay rates “at all” thing is just silly. We make this weekly payment called “rent” to our landlords, who then pay rates on the homes we live in. These people ⬇️ and about half the city.

There are holes in all undies, that's how the legs get in - Leonard Cohen

The term content creator gives me the ick real bad.

I've been making a playlist of a song that ive enjoyed every day this year and this is the first half of the year. It's cool and fun and hope you like it. tidal.com/playlist/3b7...

Councillor Chung’s email represents a new low for local politics in this country. I have supported the Mayor through this type of nonsense since she was elected and will continue to do so. Please don’t vote for behaviour like this or anyone associated with it. It’s disgusting.

Did a factory reset on my phone because every app was breaking and not loading, backing up data failed even though it was meant to be auto, now every app is still breaking and I have to turn off all the annoying invasive settings. Maybe my 10 month old $600 phone is out of date.

Keir Starmer is such a little baby coward. He is scared of everyone except the most marginalised groups which he likes to bully to feel like a big man

MONSTERS OF TAKING IT EASY (myself and the novelist @yourjokesarebad.bsky.social) return to the Sprig and Fern, Berhampore TODAY 3-6pm to play rekkids old and new

Thoughts on Lorde's Virgin on second listen It sounds like music from the 2010s that I didn't realise music no longer sounded like and didn't realise that I missed

Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)

The best make up for a band is husband guitarist, wife drummer and a series of bassists until they find one to last a long time.

New Alex g single sounds like he is backed by the bats and that's a great thing

This will be one of the most remembered images of the Gaza genocide, and there have been so many images and stories of #IsraeliCrimes

Watched all the final destination films this month. Ranked from worst to best The final destination Final destination 3 Final destination Final destination 5 Final destination 2 Final destination bloodlines.

New sir chloe song is real good

Can't wait to be able to choose between 6 candidates for mayor who oppose the golden mile and 1 who has no opinion whatsoever. Such a variety of options available.

Men, calling women cunts now really gives the vibe that you've been waiting for an opportunity to call women cunts and are leaping at the first opportunity.

Feel very proud that I got today's bandle in 1

Claire Keegan is really just one of the best authors around. Read three of her books this year and they all have held so much in so few pages.

Andrew Little on why we shouldn’t complete Golden Mile contracts. He’s wrong. Yes big decisions taper off after July recess up to the election, but this is not a new decision. This work has been coming for years, through multiple decisions over multiple councils. It’s happening.

Watched madame web tonight cos I felt like a bad movie, but it was so much worse than I expected. It wasn't even an origin story it was an origin of a premonition of an origin story.

I'm running! With our city (and world) the way it is, there's a need for constructive, pragmatic people at the table. If I'm lucky enough to receive the Greens nomination, I'll be asking for your help - for housing, infrastructure, for a Wellington where everyone can thrive.

Get ready for a new addition to this list

I need people to understand that Barthes meant "Death Of The Author" to mean that authorial intent should not be the primary lens by which to criticize and understand a text; it has nothing to do with "is buying a book by a bigot acceptable" it is about LITERARY CRITICISM

I've lived in Wellington for more than 20 years and have seen the most radical progress in fixing the pipes under Tory Whanau. Andrew Little declaring he's going to come in and "fix the pipes" now is just lazy and insulting.

I'm making a bleak prediction that spotify will organize samples to be automatically cleared on their platform which will result in lots of music become exclusive to Spotify (they've already done this with podcasts)

I've just spent $21 to join Internet NZ to help prevent it being overrun by FSU and Hobson's Pledge who are swarming to take control, override basic fairness and reject inclusion of Te Tiriti. internetnz.nz/membership/ If the $21 is a strtetch for you there is help available. DEADLINE March 31.

Weird that the number ones column is now up to the end of 2018, but very happy to read this great column on one of my fave songs from that year www.stereogum.com/2300877/the-...

My girlfriend just said whoa at her phone and I looked over her shoulder and she was looking at photos of a new hut toilet doc has installed

If you are a NZ author, I urge you to check the LibGEN database to see if your books have been scrapped by Meta. If so, the NZSA is collecting names (and book titles) in preparation for an international class action lawsuit. #NZWrites #WritingCommunity authors.org.nz/books-scrape...

Page 1 of the post: council can save money by delaying essential work on social housing, page 2: Airbnb host complaining about having to pay commercial rates.

“If a person spends more than 13 weeks in hospital, their benefit is automatically cut to $55 a week. Some patients and advocates say it’s not enough to survive on and the automatic process further punishes people who are too unwell to fight it.” #nzpol

The same people who claim trans people need to face biological reality think we shouldn't tell 22 year old men Santa isn't real.

Imagine seeing the half assed labour government in the UK who are deeply unpopular because they refuse to do anything and then model yourself after that.

Just wrote something that I know If I ever manage finish my next project, this will make it in.

Citizens arrest change stacks with the wage theft bill so you'll be able to arrest your boss. Trust me im a lawyer

Get ready for a new addition to this list

For your consideration: me as new pope

Surely even the biggest critics can see how much more this council has invested in water infrastructure than any council before it.

Has anyone seen Seth Greens Bored Ape tv show? Is it any good. Haven't heard much about it

Just read George Saunders 'the brief and frightening reign of Phil' and didn't expect it to feel so current, like it could have been written about the last couple of weeks in the US. If you can stomach it I recommend it.

I've been thinking a lot about how I'm now in a good place mentally, which if you knew me through my 20s, you would understand how big a deal this is. I spent years in therapy, half a dozen variations of anti depressants, and lots of other strategies but the thing that I think helped the most...
