Nuclear proliferation has become inevitable.
I fear we're entering an era where more nations will be seeking out nuclear weapons because the nations who have them have lost all restraint

I did something last night that I haven't done in ages -- I stayed up until 2:30 to finish this book. It's a quick read and the reader will immediately know the answers to the mystery but how the characters discover what we already know and the way their relationships build is really compelling.🇳🇿📚💙

Mr and I are forcing ourselves to return to eating at regular meal times today. We spent the last three days at his mum and dad's and basically, no exaggeration, she served us food from the moment we arrived until the second we left. She even gave us food for the car and to make when we got home 😂

Nothing tells me "Don't vote Labour" more than Labour hinting that they may go into coalition with NZF.

In addition to being virulently racist and Islamophobic, Bardot also emotionally and psychologically mistreated her son. So there's that too.

Oh god, did they just describe McSkimming as a "crook"???

And so begins the NZ tradition of figuring out which region of the country will be on the news in the morning accompanied by photos of campers sitting on tables and cars as their tents float around them 🎄

For just one night a year, we get to switch our radar from "RAIN" to the special "SANTA" function.
If we are very lucky, we might catch a quick glimpse of Santa and his reindeer as they head our way.
Next stop: New Zealand!
Merry Christmas, Meri Kirihimete

It's bad to spread fake posts like this because it makes us less affected by what he really says. This is so outrageous that it tempers (admittedly only slightly) the real outrageous bs he says. We don't need to do this. Satire is great when it's clearly satire. Fake posts aren't the same.

I'm unable to check if this is real. In a long list of bizarre posts, this is up there at the top of the wtf are we doing here pile.

On the 15th of December this year, Aotearoa New Zealand passed the 2.5 year mark for Self-ID.
As we always said, there have been zero issues arising from this. Not a single incident recorded formally or informally, not a whisper of a problem.
The anti-trans activists lied to everyone.
