I have taken the paywall off because I realised the only honest reason I'm on this site is to make sure I can chat to Alice Tawhai if I need to.

So much unfiltered atrocity online and people have to be coy and say graped, unalived and pdfile if they want to call it out. The way we use language isn't working.

As much as I appreciate Billie Eillish saying that no one can be called an illegal alien on stolen land these statements tend to backfire because famous rich people are not good at looking in the mirror, or maybe they are too good. If she wants to be true to her Irish tipuna, refund the IRA.

i have that phobia where i can't stand looking at cluster of cells, my Mum's scabiosa flowers used to give me an upset feeling, but this has been trumped by the tooth creature in channel zero, every time i remember it i get waves of revulsion.

1 million is a paltry sum when you consider how much marae anchor their communities but also there are people on Twitter enraged about them receiving any $$ at all so the good news is Luxon can never win.

I blame this series of books for feeling affections towards the Ralphs, the only time I have felt sorry for a cat

I have unpoular thoughts on whale strandings and missing trampers.

Time to accept I don't have one mouse called Ralph I have a whole whanau of Ralphs and they are bold I tell you. Bold! I don't like killing things or death and I'm a lot less angry than I used to be but I'm going to have to kill them all.
