Ew.
The image is a screenshot of what appears to be a job posting or application notice. It is a white rectangular block with black text and a small logo in the upper left corner. The logo depicts a crown over crossed swords and a fern frond with the text "Internal Affairs" and "Te Tari Taiwhenua" beneath it. Below the logo, in black font, reads: “Ministerial Advisor (Level 2) – Office of Hon David Seymour”. Further down, it states “Department of Internal Affairs” and “Wellington Central, Wellington”. The text “Strong applicant” is written in blue, in the top left corner of the image. There is a handwritten signature or marking in red ink on the top right of the image, which says “EW”.

A rectangular, red emergency break glass case is mounted on a light-colored surface. The case has a clear rectangular window in the center. Bold, white lettering reads, “IN CASE OF POLLIN EMERGENCY” above a New Zealand National Party logo that includes a capital "N" with four stars. Below the logo, in the same bold, white lettering, it states “SMASH BENEFICIARIES”. A silver chain is attached to the case with a metal handle extending from the bottom.

Here's a fortune cookie for everyone who said "Ni hao" to a random Asian during "New Zealand Chinese Language Week" a fortnight ago.
The image shows two halves of a fortune cookie placed on a bamboo mat. The cookies are yellow and triangular, with one partially opened to reveal a white slip of paper inside. The slip of paper has the text "Fuck off" printed in black letters. The background is a dark brown bamboo mat with visible parallel lines, providing a textured contrast to the smooth surface of the fortune cookies. The overall composition is simple, focusing on the cookies and the text on the slip of paper.

Transvision Vamp want our money
The image is a poster advertising a concert by the band Transvision Vamp. The poster is predominantly black with white and pink text. At the top, it reads "PLUS81 PRESENTS" in white, followed by "Transvision Vamp" in large pink letters. Below this, it states "FIRST NEW ZEALAND TOUR SINCE 1991!" in white. The central image is a black and white photograph of a woman with long blonde hair, looking directly at the viewer. To the right of the image is a pink heart with a stylized "T" inside. The event details are listed at the bottom: "FRIDAY 27 FEB MEOW NUI WELLINGTON." Ticket information is provided: "TICKETS AT PLUS1.CO.NZ | THEWENDYJAMES.COM." The poster is taped to a wall with some peeling edges, indicating it has been posted for some time.

Holy shit. On the train when everyone's phones emergency broadcasts went off!

Keep away from water... Okay....
The image shows the interior of a train carriage with closed doors. The doors are cream-coloured with black borders and have two rectangular windows, allowing a view of the outside. The windows reveal a cloudy sky and a body of water, Wellington Harbour, with a distant shoreline. The doors have stickers that read "DO NOT LEAN ON THE DOORS" with a warning that the doors may open without warning. The handles on the doors are lime green, and there is a yellow tactile strip on the floor near the doors. A person is partially visible on the right side, sitting and wearing a dark jacket and brown shoes. Above the doors, there is a sign that says "Cameras operating" and a map of the Wellington Regional Rail Network. The doors are labeled "B1" and "B2."

I was looking for "Dune" in Danish, but I couldn't find it.
A photo of the cover of Frank Herbert's book "Dune", in Danish. "Dune" has been translated as "Kilt". It shows one of the giant worms coming out of the sand.

PSA: If this is your Mercedes Benz parked on the morning clearway (no parking) zone on Featherston Street in the Wellington CBD, you might want to move it, as the Parking Wardens are waiting for the tow truck.

(PS: Sorry, I was supposed to post this an hour ago.)
A white Mercedes Benz coupe, parked in an area which is a clearway (no parking) ara on weekdays between 7 and 9 am, in Wellington central. A parking ticket is under a windscreen wiper, and several parking wardens are standing near the vehicle.
