Holding back tears. I called Dad to warn re flooding. He bought sandbags after being flooded the other week, but still in car, too heavy to lift. I knew I couldn't help without damaging myself more. Asked on local community page, help arrived in minutes, many others offered❤️

Unfollow NZ Herald. It’s a machine to make money, it doesn’t care about your reckons. But it won’t like the unfollows, because that means less clicks.

Looked at going to the Van Gogh Alive exhibition. Well, not at $60. Comparison: The Lourve entry costs $25 NZ, Rijks Museum, $34 NZ. For hours of Grand Masters. Art should be accessible to all, not just the well off.

Here’s a thought. Be it Luxon, Collins, Bridges, English, Mueller … it’s not the Leader. It’s unrelatable messaging. It’s lack of Policy. It’s the lies. It’s the racism. It’s lack of compassion. It’s white privilege. It’s the talking down. It’s empty. #NationalNotFittoGovern

A reason I didn’t press charges against my rapist was because his son was up for Jr All Black selection. Fucked Up? Yes. Because that’s what rape does to you. It fucks you up. 8 years later, men doing sport is still more important than men raping women.

Here me out. A playcenter, but for groanups. Messy play area, outdoor swings, physical play area to hit and bang things, a corner to sit and be still, corner to scream in, a sing zone, a dance pad, a hill to zoom down on cardboard, a silent disco, and a car to cry in.

@ask_aubry She’s brought into her own narrative that no one else can care for her son like her. Yes he has high needs, but her ego is feed on the value of being his carer. She’s nothing if he is not there, she cant relate to other situations. I’d say she’s also ND. Her poor daughter.

Hi @nzpost is it normal for your couriers to press doorbells and walk away immediately without leaving the parcel, no time to get to door? Because I have this on camera. I caught up to him in seconds, he said he didn’t think we were home. Both our cars parked by door. 12.46pm.
