Tino pai ki au te whakanui i te angitu o nga tauira ki TWOA. Heoi, ahakoa te harikoa o te katoa me te whakatenatena a etahi, ko taku patai... he pēhea te whakanui i te angitū i mua i te ao Māori? Ko ngā tohu paetahi he kawemai mai i te koroni.

Great read. The real question here is not what knowledge, but whose? The claims of universal truths about knowledge and quality are in reality an exercise in marginalisation. thespinoff.co.nz/politics/28-...

Oh! That's a hard one! Don't like sweet, cloy-y scents. I do like a scented candle or those stick things but need to be quite natural. Fresh and clean scents.

Brilliant article, well-written, treads carefully through the extent of Atlas Network’s influence on NZ politics No, it doesn’t direct anything, nor, aside from staffers doing its trainings, does it fund the NZ network partners like TPU, NZI Smart reporting 👏👏👏 #nzpol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04...

This is a good thread. The message I always took from gallipoli was the needless waste of life, driven by egos and incompetence. That war was a failure, not something to be glorified. That we honour their sacrifice by not repeating the things that lead to it.
