Dropping excess kumura starts in my local pātaka Kai. If you have excess seedlings or starts, consider donating them in this way, you never know who needs just a few more plants for their garden. Work together for food sovereignty. <3

Israel has kidnapped three New Zealand citizens, among over 200 others, from international waters and the New Zealand government has shrugged and said that’s just too bad.
Kiwis being taken off boats in international waters at the behest of USA allies is a dangerous prescident to set.

Finished filling my hydro and am now green housing a ton of excess seedlings to donate in my community. More will be ready to come out of my humidity tank in about a week. #feedingpeople

A piwakawaka has moved into my garden about 2 weeks ago and seems quite chuffed with the clothesline.

The fact that McSkimmings was allowed to resign and that Mitchell hasn’t stepped down is honestly all the proof I needed that the nz police still would rather protect abusers than actual victims and that they are the biggest abusers in NZ, still.

Just as infection signals imbalance in Western medicine, in te ao Māori it indicates a deeper disharmony that requires restoring the relationships that sustain life.

Trump is closing all four climate observatory stations in Alaska, Hawaii, American Samoa, and Antartica. Because you can't have high CO2 levels if you don't *measure* CO2 levels.

Hiking the Motu Trails over the next few months. Today was the Tirohanga Dunes Trail along Hikuwai beach! Bonus Whakaari included!
This trail was taken care of and smooth enough for mobility aid usage, but I would have struggled if it had been a pushchair day.

I can't believe the PM was in Hawaii and they intentionally scheduled the RSB Select Committee over this period. He also didn't even bother coming back for the floods.

37 starting out right. Unseasonal strawberries and some gorgeous Aotearoa with my partner. Today’s plan is some time on the Motu Trails and a few hours in the garden.

If we're going to keep this "run a govt like a household" thing, govt debt isn't a credit card: it's a mortgage.
You get a mortgage to buy a home & it's seen as an investment. Refinance to cover the cost of important repairs or renovations.

Yep. We DO have the tools to change this. *Pick them up*. They're *crying out to be used*. There's lots we can do between elections, so when that time comes, we can elect the sort of government I think we all *know* we *need*. Any descent into nihilism now will only serve this current govt.
