Listened to Preacher's Daughter by Ethel Cain the other day and absolutely loved it. Now listening to Perverts, and my word - what a fucking rejection of fame and of the expectations that are placed on a rising recording artist. This is a deeply uncomfortable listen - which I find FASCINATING.

So glad to see so many Wellington cafes doing well in this difficult climate. It goes to show that we want a range of cuisines and new places to go. Wellington is going through an important transition which reflects our community much more accurately. #nzpol www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3605...

Wait the guy who called a hard working Kiwi factor worker and ex-military service man a "fucking loser" also lay hands on a staff member in "animated" conversations? Must be bad if the Uffindell "independent, secretive" report strategy won't be used here. #nzpol

with destiny church's abhorrent views in the press again, i think it's important not to forget all the white megachurches that hold identical views in new zealand: life church, city impact, arise etc. they are more discreet, but they all hang out and support each other: www.webworm.co/p/holyhell
