Why do people (on well-paid, full-time, salaried jobs) tell contractors (working multiple jobs with competing inflexible deadlines) that they're So Busy and Working Very Hard and Be Patient? I have the patience of a saint.

Hard times for the #arts. “Creativity is part of the human experience,” ... “We need to look at creativity as [being] as important as eating and exercising and good health care because it is part of who we are.” From @thespinoff.bsky.social thespinoff.co.nz/pop-culture/...

Has the arts sector ever done it this hard?

We asked arts industry representatives what funding cuts and political indifference is doing to the arts. The answer? 'This is really fucked.'

The wasp nest has been well and truly kicked. The situation for the arts in this country is a shitshow. So many people around me (and me!) are devastated, exhausted, nervous, cynical, hopeless, you get the idea. Do we as a country *actually* love the arts? www.theatreview.org.nz/2026/08/01/r...

That $70m Major Events and Tourism package, btw, is more than the annual budget for Creative NZ. You know, the outfit that actually funds local artists.

Today, I'm writing two funding applications for one organisation, three for another one and one for another one. That's too many. And doesn't include the complex (unnecessary? 🤔) follow-up information requested by another funder by tomorrow 🙄

Ōtepoti Dunedin kikorangi bluesky folk: does anyone already have a (what do we call them here) feed or list of local folk who share about upcoming local events (for example)? Want to be able to tap into something to get a sense of what's on (as opposed to have to individual search each time)

Ōtepoti, seriously, if we can find a candidate for the DCC by-election who I can believe in, I'll basically drop everything to help them get elected. I can't vote for any of the current options.

A niche PSA but anyone in Dunedin who might ever want to apply to the DCC for funding for anything: there's a councillor workshop about the (never-ending) grants review at 1pm on Thursday 5th. Pass it on?

V was hanging out with his mate today at some beach or other and picked these up for me. He said his mate asked what he was doing and he said he was choosing me some shells. His mate thought it was sweet and found some for his mum too. V is 21 😍🐚❣️

I like cards, dice and boardgames but not Catan types. I'm exceptionally competitive but not very patient. I'm terrible at following rules but I like to read them out so everyone knows them before I bend them. Part of the pleasure is seeing how much bending I can get away with. But I don't cheat.

If you're one of the ~300 groups with an application in to the DCC for funding atm, the grants subcommittee no longer has delegations so decisions will be made by the council as a whole - with no mana whenua, community or arts representation. m.facebook.com/story.php?st...

I've never really had hobbies but I bake and I cook although I don't often have many to feed these days. Live arts are the best. I sometimes make things out of beads, mostly semi precious stones, and silver wire (mostly I just like the beads themselves to rummage in). I read a lot. #SecretSantaAoNZ
