Sometimes you see someone who is so completely in control of their destiny eh. Like, woman in office dress walking up Featherston Street barefoot, shoes in hand.

The same headline but it’s been poorly edited to read “what’s a man? Greek philosopher heckles Plato at the agora”

This is an outrage. "Whio is the best duck" is a statement, NOT a question 💅
A screenshot of the statement 'Whio is the best duck". The autocorrect tool wants to turn this into a question rather than a statement.

Labour is defending against claims of hypocrisy around its policy on interest deductibility, saying the party is simply maintaining the status quo.

Apparently Kneecap the band have some credible SA allegations against them? It's hard for me to get info on these allegations because the content is often locked behind social media platforms I refuse to engage with. Anyway just something to consider when Kneecap tickets go on sale this morning.

The media went after Tamatha Paul for the Moa Point failure. The report into the Moa Point failure came out today. It does not mention Tamatha Paul. I'm peripherally aware of the media going after Tamatha Paul for some other thing recently but they've somewhat lost my confidence at this point.

Stay safe out there! I was nearly struck by the letter 'f'
A building with a billboard on the third floor. The billboard has the letters 'u' and 'c' on it. On the ground beneath the billboard is the letter 'f'.

If this is your 'f' I moved it up the ramp inside the carpark.

"If we make this a one-term government we will re-establish Te Aka Whai Ora! They won't disestablish it AGAIN unless they want to be a one-term government a SECOND time 😈" How about that? How about actually discourage this government from behaving the same way the next time they get in?

This is, once again, overly simplistic thinking from TOP. This is MMP. "The party with the biggest number is best" could result in a government that represents fewer voters that a coalition formed by several smaller parties. But what do I know, eh? Maths?

The reason I know the MCU is dying is because I waited for four weeks to see the new Spiderman film and encountered literally no spoilers in that time. And it wouldn't have mattered to me if I had. I am a person who has blocked people because of spoilers in the past.

Okay this is all very nice, but. About a decade ago I felt some unexplain connection to someone like I knew her somehow, and I sent her a message saying so and I got blocked. So. Unless you're Dolly Parton, maybe keep it to yourself if you feel an unexplained connection to a stranger?

There is currently discourse on how IQ scores mean nothing but this is untrue. IQ scores indicate how often a person will humblebrag about their IQ when given the opportunity. The higher the score, the humbler the brag. "Sure I got an IQ score of 160 when I was a kid, but look at me now! I'm sad."

This one time I saw Luxon crossing Murphy Street. He did not have to deal with any traffic. Why? Because the people attending to him BLOCKED TRAFFIC FOR HIM TO CROSS. HE NEVER HAS ANY DIFFICULTY NAVIGATING THE PARLIAMENTARY PRECINCT. HE HAS PEOPLE TO DEAL WITH THAT. I have no respect for that man.

I really enjoyed "Big Girls Don't Cry" and I think it's a must-see for Millennials who ever played Snake on a Nokia. But there's a scene at the beginning where she's interacting with a creep on the internet and she just gets up and walks away. I really need that moment to be a GIF. So many uses.
