This is random but where did the hand pointing to the right go in the emoji list!? It has disappeared on my Samsung!

Some of y'all haven't watched Johnny 5 and it shows.

Ok real talk. The entitlement of dog owners is fucken unreal. Constantly asking people to put their dogs on lead on walks. "But Fluffy wouldn't hurt anyone" while fluffy is full on the lead snarling and bearing teeth at my dogs. It is hard to walk our dogs because we can't control other dogs.

So one set of my kuia and koroua on my Scottish side married at the Clyde. Which I can only imagine unless someone informs otherwise that this is the Clyde River. And that awa runs in both sides of my whakapapa.

Dr Shane Reti is retiring after this year from politics. We love this for him! We're so glad he is able to CHOOSE what happens to his life and the current government is not forcing their will on him. Wow, CHOICE is amazing, eh, Dr Reti! #nzpol #abortion #NationalNZ #abortionishealthcare

So because I was born 2 years after a date defined by UK I can't apply for Scotland dual citizenship.

Usually when disaster strikes in a community in a major city, The PM normally cancels all his previously arranged appointments & turns up if not only for the cameras. Where is Starmer today? In a community centre trying to talk his way out of the cost of living crisis. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd...

I mean white people feel the foundations of their lives shaking. We need to as a collective, do better than "just make my life better", we need to work at the very least in tearing down structures of oppression and reworking into systems of hauora.

You know that feeling when you're struggling to stay awake? #kakapo chicks Tiwhiri-A3 and Tiwhiri-A4 in Tiwhiri's nest on Pukenui/Anchor Island. Both around two weeks old, and doing well. #kakapo2026 #conservation #parrots

So turns out through my Craig lineage I believe we are Irish (O'Hara), Scottish Highlands (Currie) and Scottish Picts (Callender).

“I have usernames older than you.”. Holy shit

How do I unpack for this? I want the recipe. www.nzherald.co.nz/eatwell/reci...

This is how every abuser works. "Come, I'll show you, everything is safe" While abusing everyone. Abusers are gaslighters. They are usually narcissist. Louise Upston wouldn't know a fridge if she ran into it and she is making a decision on the abuse this place produces? Get in the sea.

Our taonga are surviving thanks to amazing peeps. But I am hoping mana whenua are in there too, that is where they will thrive.

Ffs

Ok think it went well. As my sister says it will be if it's meant to be.

I have to turn off and on my data with 2degrees ALL THE TIME. It is frustrating.

First kawhe shop I go to in Wellington doesn't do decaf. So if you see someone flying above the city it's just me on kawhe.

The marama this morning is glorious

Have an interview tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Hate to say "we told you so" #nzpol

Here’s Luxon saying NZ supports “any action” to stop Iran and me following up to ask if that would include carpet bombing (vid via RNZ)

I laughed aloud at this, I admit, heehee!

Do I have any illustration artists who could help us develop some concept sketches? Paid mahi, if we can scrap together funds. Any suggestions?

world-altering decisions are being made by a cabal of gambling addicts hell bent on self enrichment no matter the cost to humanity, we should look into that.

My auntie lost her son to suicide during the covid lockdowns. So Simeon Brown can stfu about "hardships" during covid 19. My auntie didn't tell our whānau until after the lockdpwns to ensure they didn't break lockdowns. That is the sacrifice she did for our whānau safety.

Netanyahu is sheltering in Germany. As a signatory to the Rome Statue the country has a legal obligation to arrest him. It is the law of the land. They won't. Germany was never deNazified

Do you know that the New Zealand Pūkeko all go on heat at the same time and engage in a massive bisexual orgy? No one really knows who parents are so they all raise the chicks together. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/co...

We're gonna win my darlings but it's going to hurt.

Ok just smashed out recording what is probably 2 episodes of our māori data sovereignty training

"Christopher Luxon’s Government has intentionally increased homelessness. ... They must make different political decisions to stop the growing problem, and instead ensure that everyone in this country has access to a safe, warm, dry, and affordable home." action.greens.org.nz/stop_homeles...

Trying to write and record my Māori Data Sovereignty training and the focus is HARD for the past week and then I was like "right, Sunday is the day" and the bloody shit going down in this world is so hard for me to focus. Anxiety up the wazoo.

When do we ask US and Israel to follow international law or are we just ignoring that elephant in the room!?!?!?!

This is an illegal, unprovoked and brutal attack that shows once again that the USA and Israel are rogue states. The UK must end our cosy relationship with the USA and our ongoing support for Israel.

“It is remarkable that our country has commenced recognising Indigenous ancestors in some significant lands and waters. It’s time to be next-level courageous with general conservation and environmental law.” — Jacinta Ruru. #nzpol e-tangata.co.nz/comment-and-...

If you want some good news that hasn’t been reported, Chlöe Swarbrick held a packed community hui yesterday called “Move on to Where? Real solutions to homelessness”. It’s nice to know that there are adults in the room who realise sweeping human beings aside is not a solution and are acting to help.

NZ needs to do so as well. Leave Five Eyes. Kick the FBI out of Wellington. Refuse to give them access to our biometric data. We should not be allies with countries that murder people.

We are going to have a nuclear war because we allowed idiots into positions of power and they are going to destroy us all.

Fuck me.

‘The river won’: how campaigners in Brazilian Amazon stopped privatisation of waterway

I wouldn't mind if I knew this person and we shared space together virtually but blind unsolicited advice is bullshit.

What a joke

Buwhahaha our car needs at least 5k replacement engine and our insurance we purchased with it to cover this had a super fine print that said every 10k needed to be serviced and no one told us. So fark 2026.

Wtf

Abortion was phase I, trans healthcare was phase II, birth control is phase III

They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.
