A drawing today about the recent passing of actor and gentle man Sam Neill (and his duck Charlie Pickering), and I guess about the landscape he loved.
Cartoon. Title: “Absence” Charlie, a white duck, stands mournfully beside a pond on Sam’s vineyard in the Earnscleugh valley, in Central Otago. In the lower right it says, “Sam Neill, 1947-2026”

With apologies to Don McLean #NZPol A long, long time ago; well, not that long, we all know Luxon tried to sound profound n' wise But e'ery time he grabbed a mic He’d drop a line that didn’t quite Make the trip from brain to public eyes
He went & dissed “bottom feeding” folk
Like hardship was some kind of fuckin' joke
Then stared as if the backlash
Was all just staged stunt smoke 
And right on cue, the pundits came
Chanting their protective claim:
“The public just needs to get to know him!”
Like a ritual they’d memorised in a cult

So bye‑bye to another Luxon misfire
From the Te Puke/Hawaii fib to the Parliament quagmire
And the media rose up like a cultic choir:
“Once the public gets to know him, he’ll poll higher…
Once the public gets to know him, he’ll poll higher.”🎶🎵

Mōrena Aotearoa NZ Mānawatia a Matariki #Matariki (Pleiades | Subaru) above That Wānaka Tree #NZ #Māori #Holiday #NewYear #Nikon #Photography
In Māori culture, Matariki is the Pleiades star cluster and a celebration of its first rising in late June or early July. The rising marks the beginning of the new year in the Māori lunar calendar.

Matariki is the Māori name for the cluster of stars known to Western astronomers as the Pleiades in the constellation Taurus. Matariki is a shortened version of Ngā mata o te ariki o Tāwhirimātea, "the eyes of the god Tāwhirimātea".[1] According to Māori tradition, Tāwhirimātea, the god of wind and weather, was enraged by the separation of heaven and earth – his parents, Ranginui and Papatūānuku.[1] Defeated in battle by his brother, Tāwhirimātea fled to the sky to live with Ranginui, but in his anger he first plucked out his eyes as a gesture of contempt towards his siblings, and flung them into the sky, where they remain, stuck to his father's chest. In Māori tradition the unpredictability of the winds is blamed on Tāwhirimātea's blindness

Interesting to see these proposed vehicle-destruction measures can be leveled against "intimidating convoys". I wonder if that includes politically-motivated protests a la Groundswell and Destiny Church? (Or indeed, could a hikoi be deemed "intimidating" if a government pushes further right?)

Grief for the lost. And for our lost care. When the pandemic began in Aotearoa, I created the image on the left: 105 individually cut blooms, one for each person gone. The image on the right was made 4 months later: 1197 flowers. I need to remake this now with 3882 rememberers. Forget-them-not 💔
A photo montage of 105 individually cutout forget-me-not flowers (each snipped from the creator's own photographs). Each has five round petals, a central yellow hole. Thry range in size from pinhead to saucer, from deep purple to bright, clear blue.

Agreed 💯. Any practical suggestions from anyone for what to do? Marching/protesting (unless in HUGE numbers) will simply be ignored (see: Palestinian protests). Writing to our MP's (also HUGE numbers required) can help. Also, a lot of money will be required - rapidly - to fund protests. #nzpol

Great moments in captioning. The scoff was about the idea that cancer patients might be on benefits and unable to work. I'm thinking Luxon's minders did a better job before the election than I realised. They managed to keep his nastiness and cruelty hidden behind a bumbling business guy facade
