To read to them :)

Anyone got recs for non scary chapter books for 6 year olds?

Kia ora hospitality peeps how does one know which businesses are good to their staff? Limited putea, I just want to spend it where peeps working there are happy. I was looking at Living Wage employer, there are only a few in Chch. Anything else I can look for? ☕️🍕❤️

Brooke van Veldon saying that no workers are worse off because no fair payment agreements have yet been settled, I am not sure that is the win she thinks it is as it implies workers WOULD be better off with a FPA! #NZPol

How TF can they get away with this shit??

Wtf this is not acceptable. Te Reo is an official language and interpreters are available in the House for these situations. Nonsense culture war from the Govt.

Last chance at Pepper Raccoon!

Hey fam! My store is closing on Monday, so you’ve got less than a week to hit me up for stickers, enamel pins, tees, and more. Selling out and very low stock on a lot of pins and tee sizes, with some items not returning next year! Pepperraccoon.com

Nearly $50m of repairs to SH1 between Auckland and Hamilton delayed further Almost $50 million of repairs to State Highway 1 between Auckland and Hamilton are mired in delays and question marks.

Everyone said I was daft to build a highway on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp.

Message to non-Maori folk. If you oppose this govt's anti-Maori policies you need to get down to the next protest. Luxon etc are trying to portray this as a brown vs white issue. It's not, & the best way to prove it is with your presence.

Gotta catch em all!

My daughter told me I'm the fattest in the house and that I have the cutest outfits. I'll take it!

All entities in Aotearoa are specifically related Māori. Hoki mai whenua!

I subscribe to David Farrier, Emily Writes, Byron Clark, Tusiata Avia and David Slack. All recommended!

Nicotine Willis is a good nickname, gotta say #nzpol

Ok team. Part of fighting back, for me, is finally subscribing to some Substacks and Patreons etc. Hit me up with how (and why) I should be supporting them.

I wonder if Nicotine Willis can tell us how many people they need to take up smoking each year to be able to fund their tax cut program #nzpol

Aotearoa New Zealand 🇳🇿 has elected a far-right government

Don't be afraid

Be very, very afraid

And then fight the fuckers

Starting with Willis and Reti, and their greed-fuelled, privilege-reinforcing, treasonous, tobacco industry enabling policies

#NationalNotFitToGovern

So if I get this right:
- not smoking
- using public transport
- multiculturalism
- not owning a gun
- bicycles
- speaking Te Reo
- being vaccinated
- unionism
- inclusion of gender and sexuality
- reproductive rights

Will all be affirmative action protesting the new coalition government

We do not have enough funds for us to pay rent over the next few months.
Our rent is for a warehouse where we can house our CNC Router and that is $2200 per month. If we cannot pay this we will have to, at our cost, move the CNC Router into storage.

Hmmmm smoking is bad. Even those who love it know that. FFS. #NZPOL

absolutely nobody:
NZ First: ciggies!
ACT: oh and big fucking guns

Me, a neurodivergent Mum: Sometimes I just need a day at home because I'm over stimulated.

My ND kids: We will be mega assholes if we have to stay home all day because we are understimulated
