Attention Kāpiti - Blackwood Bakes have opened a new cafe on Marine Parade in Paraparaumu Beach (where Marine Parade Eatery was) and it's excellent. This is me and my nutella cookie croissant.

If the barrel keeps having rotten apples put in, or apples are turning rotten once inside, at what point do you accept there’s a system problem?
Why are rotten apples put in? Why are they going rotten once in?
And why aren’t (more) politicians asking this about police?

Went to see Back to the Future on the big screen for the 40th anniversary, there was a Delorean parked outside and I got to sit in it. Incredible!

The lesson here is have good principles and stand on them. Stand for something that isn't power!

It's frustrating how in the Tina from Turner's ad she sings "Paekākāriki" while standing in front of the giant L&P bottle which is clearly in Paeroa, nowhere near Paekākāriki. It's the only town name she sings where she's not in front of something in that town, I don't understand

Kāpiti Coast District Council has increased our election turnout compared to 2022. Last election we got 45.8%, this time we're already at 45.7% before specials have been added to the count.

A now-dead ex MP used to message me on here nearly every time we passed each other on these travelators when I worked there, sometimes making unwanted 'bear' references. He was an odd one.

When I was 16 my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer - 3 months later she died. It was an awful thing to go through, but one that too many rangatahi in Aotearoa face.

I am so done with this bullshit.
NZ First mingled with a crowd who set fire to the grounds of parliament.
The Greens marched with a hīkoi that did not leave a scrap of litter on those same grounds.

I'm on RNZ this morning talking about the Government's decision to continue enabling genocide. Safe to say I'm pretty furious about it.

Took part in Hīkoi mō te Pōti today with Embracing Te Tiriti Kāpiti, from Raumati Beach to drop off our voting papers at Paraparaumu Library.
So much support from tooting cars along the way, don't forget to fill out your voting papers and say YES to keeping Māori wards!
