Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 12/08/2026I tried listening to the press conference but his voice just riles me up so I'm relying on #nzpol to keep me updated and amused 040
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Don't put off getting your flu jabs kids. Executive dysfunction is high this year and I never quite made it. Son and I now really sick. 100

Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 20/06/2026At swimming lessons, listening to a couple parrot all the latest talking points from our coalition and it is taking all me energy not to interrupt with the biggest "well actually" 020
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 30/05/2026I do not want more money spent on NZDF capability because Kegsbreath demands it. I want our tamariki to be fed and housed and healthcare for all when it is needed (not after 18 months on a waiting list). 000
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 25/05/2026Super excited to be seeing Suzy Eddie Izzard tonight. 020
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 25/05/2026The Topp Twins have always, for me, represented what is wonderful about this country. Jools' passing is a huge loss. 010
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Every day, my rage at this government gets larger. November can't come soon enough. #nzpol 092
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 16/05/2026The proposed NCEA replacement is enraging and anxiety inducing when thinking about the effect on neurodiverse students. What is the obsession with exams? They just demonstrate how much you can cram and regurgitate in a limited time. It does not show deep learning or understanding. #nzpol 3244
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 04/05/2026I am a complete Star Wars nerd and am proudly raising my son to be one too. I was also raised Catholic, and when I've heard "May the fourth be with you" today, my brain responds: "and also with you". Anyone else? 100

Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 24/03/2026I am currently unemployed but I work very hard as a solo parent raising my autistic son. So, because I don't get paid a wage or salary, apparently I don't need extra assistance for fuel and the rising cost of living??! November can't come soon enough. 010
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 21/03/2026Once again I’m cursing the drunk woman who smashed into the rear of my Leaf 18months ago and the insurance that was only enough to buy a hybrid. I miss my ev. Yes first world problems etc but I really enjoyed driving that weird clog of a car. 010
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 20/02/2026The Gen-X urge to exit light and enter night. 000
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 16/02/2026It’s so frustrating seeing articles today abt the Govt’s upcoming infrastructure announcement. They killed plans & funds for fixing parts of our infrastructure and now will be pretending they are the only ones who know how bad things are. We know how bad it is & that they’ve made it worse! #nzpol 020
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 15/01/2026If Labour wants to be truly game changing, they’ll dump Hipkins and run a campaign that works strategically with the Greens and not against them. 010
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 14/01/2026How many events from Dec/Jan will Luxflakes claim he “doesn’t know about” when he finally reappears? My bet is all of them. #nzpol 120

Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 24/09/2025I'm surprised at how few issues I can find with the proposed replacement to the Holidays Act. Having spent 3 long years working in a remedition/rectification project I know how awful the existing legislation is. Pro rated sick leave = bad. Niggling concern re commissions but need to think further. 100

Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 01/06/2025What??!! Ncuti Gatwa has ended his tenure as the Doctor and I’ve only just discovered him! But Billie Piper is a fascinating choice. Is she Rose, Bad Wolf or something else? Will she have memories from earlier times in the Tardis???? I’m loving rediscovering and geeking out over Doctor Who. 000
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Significant parental milestone reached last night. My 10 year old had his first sleepover at a friend’s place. My first full night “off” in 10 years. 110
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Finally started watching the new Doctor and Ncuti Gatwa is absolutely brilliant! 021
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 20/05/2025Having worked in front line customer support roles I know better than to take out frustrations with company processes on the poor person at the other end of the call. But, dear god, it's hard sometimes. 000
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 20/05/2025imo David Seymour doesn't have (m)any 'worthwhile ideas' so I'd like to completely disregard what he says. Unfortunately, his dangerous ideas and influence will profoundly, negatively affect this country so I have to take note of what he spouts. 000
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 15/05/2025Dealing with WINZ can be really hard. I am, however, happy to report that I just had a very good & helpful phone appointment with a case manager. 000
Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 22/04/2025Waiting for an asd assessment appt for my son and reading the scary things RFK Jr is coming out with in the US is very upsetting. I hope we don’t see the same rhetoric here but I’m not confident we won’t. 110

Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 05/03/2025The current, tired arguments blaming parents for not being able to afford “marmite sandwiches and a piece of fruit” for their children’s lunches piss me off. Poverty is not a choice. It is never a choice. It just happens for a million reasons and it’s really hard to get out of. 110

Time betw that appt & surgery a matter of weeks. Great outcome! But is the pre-waiting list waiting list data being reported? Better health outcomes or just creative accounting? 000

Jess Hollis - Toitū Te Tiriti @jhollis.bsky.social · 27/11/2024I fear that there is a lack of true understanding of how complex the raft of systems de applications are in health. Replacing, patching, upgrading, applying consistent data definitions, 'fixing' data, etc is a massively complex and costly process that takes time and people. No matter who is in govt 000
