I wish I could help all the people asking for help on here but I can barely look after myself, sorry. I know I'm privileged as fuck but that doesn't mean I have any money

You got ultra religious people as Ministers and a fringe minority party full of conspiracy theorists and this is what you get. They are in a symbiotic relationship based on hating queer people.

It’s the time of the year (Summer) when the Pōhutukawa trees (also called New Zealand Christmas Trees) begin to bloom. Most bloom brilliant red flowers but this gorgeous beast blooms bright yellow.
This is how it looked this afternoon. 💛

The irony is that Simeon Brown promised the tunnel would support walking and cycling during the election campaign, then was subsequently unable to explain how that was possible under his own policy as minister. It's such garbage government.
