Dared to take my big bro and niece freshly flown in yesterday from UK to the beach last night. Woke to this today.
Perfection.
I popped in for a swim and it was glorious

It’s really very simple! It turns out that, when given the economic and reproductive freedom we have never enjoyed before, many more women CHOOSE not to have children than any economists expected. The desire for motherhood may not, in fact, be innate to women’s DNA!
The universality of this trend, despite *wildly* different cultural, political, economic and social differences across the world is one of the most fascinating phenomena on the planet right now.
This is actually kind of crazy and again implies it's not really any specific country's policies. But it does continue to support my "video games got too fun, more fun than baby" theory.

Don’t get me wrong, the Catholic Church is soooooo wrong and problematic but…
He wasn’t the worst one and it has HUGE impacts politically and human rights.
The fact that he ended his stint in life with a call for peace in Gaza “etc” was huge.

Is anyone else feeling weird after growing up catholic (kura etc) … belief or no belief?
I’ve kinda thought some of his stuff lately was pretty
powerful from a world POV.

Just chatted to my mum, lots to process.

The joy of peri-m hotness, combined with cyclone rain, & humidity
It’s warm air being sucked down from the tropics by the cyclone apparently. It isn’t as hot up here, but it’s very humid.

It’s always so jarring when people don’t get that human rights apply to everyone regardless of citizenship. Human rights are inherent and arbitrary arrest is considered a bad thing for all humans everywhere.

Out of interest - why the hate on Meghan Markle?
I’m not invested I just don’t get/what she has done to deserve it?
I noticed it bc of her new show.
It’s not not a but randomly ended up watching it with a kid who loved it, simple instruction to “make” some basic stuff.
Am I missing something?

I’m pleased to say the Police have just announced they have removed Destiny Church groups Man Up and Legacy from their register of accredited providers and they will no longer be referring offenders to them. Good sense prevails. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3606...
Police stop referring offenders to Destiny Church programmes after Pride protests

I saw an e hoa at woolies earlier…
Slipped a brown paper bag from the bakery into his cart, & a jar of marmite and an apple on top.
his reaction was perfect, he instantly got “it”. 🤣

In my silliness / uselessness this is what I recorded of it while peeking around the corner.

PSA - today is the most important religious day of the year.
It’s Shrove Tuesday.
Aka Pancake day.
You have to eat them it’s the law.

(Most recently catholic but like many Christian days it was “borrowed” from pagan festival, although the Slavs did it way better - it was pancake week)

I’m thinking of watching Handmaids tale again just to make myself feel better about whatever the hell is going on in the states.
They have almost surpassed dystopia.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.
