A gorgeous aurora thread by Paul. Simply stunning!

I've discovered this in recent years, many people are very uncomfortable with friends who become chronically ill or disabled. I still get told to 'get well soon', are people really that f*cking stupid or is their discomfort causing such a idiotic response.

I've been pondering the future since NY, & have put together some concrete goals: -A holiday with my friend of 30+ years, Melbourne?. -A visit to see my birth mother, sister,BIL & niece. -Getting my legal ducks in a row around my health. - Start planning to go to an F1 race. -Start baking again.

This government needs to be held accountable at the same level they held the previous government accountable to. We would have had 2 brand new ferries here by next year. Now we still don't have confirmation on ferries or timelines. #nzpol

We only rate dogs. This is a very majestic mop, potentially several. Please only send dogs. This is not complicated. Thank you… 14/10

Soft rain. Full belly. Safe. For the night

One of the hardest parts of surviving or going through something heavy is realizing that people around you can no longer relate. You've crossed a line they haven't. But no matter how isolating it gets, I'd never wish for anyone to understand by living through what I did

It's creeping up on 2 years since Mum died, and my grief is so very deep. I just want some peace.

Sore abs from all the lifting, bad shoulder is painful, boxes stacked up on my bed, on the floor etc. I literally can't move so I've found some cheap as accommodation in town. That way I can sleep properly then come back here to pack. Still not sure how I'm going to get it done, but I have to 😬

Talking to my WOC clients based it the US, they are all making plans for a quick exit should things escalate more rapidly than they are currently. If you're looking to exit, get organised now and research your options thoroughly. Not all countries have a fast visa approval process.

Huge tautoko to Predator Free for doing the groundbreaking conservation work across the city. We’ll continue supporting their bold vision for a predator-free capital. ‘Council and Predator Free Wellington win Supreme Award at Local Government Excellence Awards’ wellington.govt.nz/news-and-eve...

It's been 6 months since I had my genetic blood tests, & no sign of a neurologist follow up. Both my GP and I are frustrated, because I need to get the POA & advance directive sorted. The destruction of our health system means people wait longer and longer for specialist care & could die waiting.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH

Check out the most recent round of SPF testing done by the Aussie consumer group Choice, e te whānau. They tested 20 and SIXTEEN didn't meet their SPF claims?! www.rnz.co.nz/life/wellbei...

Guess who woke up with packing tape on her pillow? 😂

Genuinely. My young child and I are FUCKED. I just want to dye. This fundraiser is the most impotmrtant thing we could ever accomplish rn. I’m fucking so down I cannot even begin to explain it in words chuffed.org/project/1243...

Ok Pōneke, I need your help with moving valuables, some breakables, clothing, bathroom/cosmetics, Mum's stuff, pot plants and other small items between Saturday and Monday. My move is next Tuesday morning then I will come back to clean. If you are available to help me, please let me know. Repost 🙏🙏

I am in this post and I do not like it 😬

I've had 4 hoodies on the washing line since Monday and the rain has turned them soggy and gross. I might have to wash them again and take them to the laundromat to get dry 😬

A cis women's rugby team played a trans women's rugby team and won 34-7. Naturally, Oliver Brown, who likes that his job gives him free reign to attack women, is not pleased, perhaps because he's spent years telling us how shit cis women are at everything

OK, I need your help identifying this. It's slightly greasy, with not much smell, but has ruined the base of my Kate Spade handbag by seeping through the storage bag. It has leaked onto other storage bags but no damage. This was in my wardrobe & I can't find the source? Oil maybe? It's not pee.

FYI, there's spam group text messages doing the rounds. Be careful and don't reply or engage. My one was all 021 numbers.

Great news Pōneke, I have a new flat! 😁 Just waiting to hear back from assorted movers. Thank you for all the leads ❤️

A quick work message for you. The mobile network companies are shutting down 3G by the end of the year (more or less) and this may affect your phone. You can free-text 3G to 550 and get a report on whether your phone will work OK without 3G. Let me know if you have any issues with it.

Who else hates the latest Android update?

Pōneke, I have about 4 bath towels and some mixed euro/regular pillowcases if anyone wants them. I also have a Peter Alexander oodie. Gate pickup Newtown or outside Zoo.
