In short, the bill proposes re-writing the founding document & treaty of our country.

New Zealander here. The bill is pissing off many people- Non-Māori included. This is a quick explanation as to why the protests are happening www.tiktok.com/@rianatengah...

Gutting read. ADHD & meds are already so stigmatised & misunderstood. Headlines like this just reinforce that whole 'doing it for attention' or med seeking awful assumption. Why would we invent these struggles? Would rather be thriving! Meds help me survive, which is all I can do for now.

Always trying to channel my inner Lafayette

The Icks.

If one side forces through a bill without proper process, breaching democratic norms and Te Tiriti, why is the other held to a higher standard for using haka—a powerful, culturally significant protest? Haka here asserts tino rangatiratanga and calls out the double standard in judging conduct.

The coalition government are forcing through changes to a founding document without proper process. A key aspect of that founding doc is Māori right to tino rangatiratanga. Haka is a valid expression of tino rangatiratanga in action.
To equate it to Hanson & her burka is a gross equivalence.

Yours is an account I was reluctant to leave behind at the cursed other place. Was relieved to see you here. Also, to anyone else seeing this- great book, highly recommended!

We love to see it! 🥳 some times its the little things that cause joy

They really are. I worked briefly for some billionaires while they travelled Europe. They were the most miserable people. Well, the Mrs and the kids were. The Mr was living his best life, going incognito in his favourite Hawaiian shirt & riding the tube while high on mushys.

What would we replace it with?
My top pics:
- Home again - Shihad
- Slice of Heaven - Dave D
- How Bizarre – OMC
- Poi e - Patea Māori club
- Aotearoa – Stan Walker

Any of these would work so well.

Cute! Do you have dragons in your games? My little person is obsessed with dragons & is also a budding game designer!

found your post while searching for him too! Would like to leave Twitter, but trying to find all my favourites here first

haha yeah, set bait & let them out-narcissist each other. It's the only approach that makes sense.

I feel like that maybe part of the point. Their position is beggars can't be choosers. They can then point to the waste, say the programme isn't needed after all, and scrap it. All while showing "they tried".

So many lost opportunities! Many schools were finding their feet- working with local providers & growers or putting in their own gardens. Healthy, fresh and employing locals. Aside from making sure kids are well fed, so much potential. All lost to serve them slop & send profits overseas.

I play a co-op game with my 8 year old. Who has set up his house as a full cafe & general store, with different themed rooms. So before I can start my Stardew day on our farm I have to call into his house for breakfast, say hi to his kids & husband! My wine cellar efforts fund his house renos!

Only good if you have a seed maker though right? Otherwise Ancient fruit wine is the goodness! Especially if you have a glasshouse.
