Democracy Fungus Wake up babe, new kingdom to elect a representative of just dropped interactives.landcareresearch.co.nz/foty/

The suspension of @tepaatimaori.bsky.social tātāriki for daring to bring their mana, mauri and wairua into parliament is systematic racism. What is says to tangata whenua is you will be silenced for being Māori. I’m equal parts pōuri and tino riri. #NZpol #ToitūTeTiriti #BeingMāori #Kotahitanga

I am not participating in the joy that once was Eurovision. #CeaseFireNow #FreePalestine

Persimmon are the best ♥️

Offensive reckons of someone with no understanding of my culture is a block. Not even going to engage. Ka kite i a koe, ā tērā Tūrei!

Learning the haka; practicing my mihimihi; pepeha; wairua statement and my part of our pitch plus studying for next week’s aromatawai and Tēnei Au Graduation! #StudyDay

Erasure of identities that are not white, upper middle class and male is all about power and money. Our intersectionality means that of many of my community are experiencing a huge pile on. I’m staying AoNZ to fight - on the streets, in the classroom and in the corridors of power! For our moko!

I am BEGGING our news media, especially RNZ as publicly funded broadcaster of note, to stop publishing derogatory quotes from RW political folk as headlines. STOP PRESENTING BIAS AND BIGOTRY AS REASONED POLITICAL INSIGHT, YOU'RE AMPLIFYING BULLSHIT.

Mōrena folks, Mūaopoko Otago Peninsula autumn sunrises are the best. Ōtepoti #Dunedin Have a great Friday #iphone #photography

If we learn by making mistakes, in the world where AI is changing reality, will mistakes be tolerated?

Just reenrolled for another reo course at Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi ♥️ for next semester! #ReoMāori

I am dismayed about the firing of Shira Perlmutter and Carla Hayden #GLAMR www.foxnews.com/politics/tru... #USPol

Going to Ahitereiria to see whānau and celebrate littlest moko turning 1, at end of June. And my mātāmua and eldest moko coming to stay in July!! Thrilled. #KuiVibes

Mōrena e te whānau o #Kikorangi. Ko te Tāite tēnei! E inumia ana tōku kaputī kākāriki e ahau, kei runga te parehua ināianei! Kia pai te rā! #ReoMāori

Want bed. Seems too far away - in the next room via night time ablutions! Tired! Instead will keep watching Magicians.

Saw my first Labubu in da wild today on the bus.

Thought yay I can keep my uterus for 4 days and then today - uterus said NO!

When people leave the size sticker on their caps! It makes be want to offer some fashion advice!

All day thought tomoz was FRIYAY! E pouri ana ahau! Ko te Taite āpōpō! Auē! E rorirori ana au!

E hokinga ana te karaihe reo e ahau i te pō nei. E māuiui iti tonu ana ahau. Engari kaua e pirangi ana ki te hapa anō. E tino ngenge ana ināianei! Heoi anō, pō mārie e te whānau o #Kikorangi. #ReoMāori

Hūrē! He hīti rikokore kei runga mōenga. E tino harikoa ana ahau! Pō mārie!

I see my tāmariki a few times a year. This was the last time. Here I am with my mātāmua and both my mokopuna on our way to the NGV in Melbourne. I am heading over the ditch in 6 weeks because my youngest mokopuna is turning one! #HariRāMāmā

Any suggestions #Kikorangi

E tunua ana te parāoa e ahau. He whare kakara tēnei ināianei! Tōku tuatahi wā mō tokoono marama pea. #Bread #Baking
