I bet you're really pissed I lost your number, Ms Swarbrick.


But yeah - it's not a good idea to buy me an expensive phone. My Mum is going to gift me one eventually (and a new junk guitar shortly), but the other stuff I'll be taking from the Trust my Mum set up after 2020. šŸ˜€ -


The laptop could take a beating, and it did for 2 years. But phones are too fragile.

I'm a lot stronger than I look -- bear in mind I've worked out like a girl most of my life, but I'm 10-15kg heavier than a girl who wears the same size clothes (8-14).


This is the point of fafa's -- socially, we can do shit that real women find difficult. - For Sarah (my ex): I could've taken Keaton -- he punched me hard, and it barely left a bruise. My brother punched me in the same place years before that, and it caused contusions and bleeding severe enough we went to the hospital (he came so I wouldn't press charges). I fight dirty, though, so I really hate to fight. It's the only way I can win: I'm strong for a girl, but weak for a guy. 🧠 But George has guns. That's scary for me, though he seems like a nice enough guy; if you wanted to talk when I was at the flat, you could have, but I figured it was your place to do so (remember that chat from the Tohunga Journal about Wahine taking the lead? šŸ‘‹).

No, that was 2024 at the wānanga. Now I'm pretty much done. It's blindingly obvious that my level 2 certificate is better than a VUW level 4 one. To be fair, that was my main thing for the year, and

Well, aside from the fact that I'd be arrested in most other countries, it's also a great place to be during the climate change era that we find ourselves in. I'm pretty confident I'll be able to liv

More info for CS: Yes, I love you, but my party affiliation is my choice. I'd rather try and persuade Rawiri that legalising is a good idea than vote Green.


Honestly, one vote makes a difference for Te Pati, but the Greens should survive without my vote. šŸ‘ Here's my first pitch: gangs may deal drugs, but that's a result of the social stigma against gangs rather than whether they could be more productively employed -- the Jarrod Gilbert book suggests the Ministry of Works used to pay them for construction projects in the 1970's and early 1980's. And a legal market with a government-sponsored education campaign and looser regulations would turn cannabis (or hemp) into a legitimate business. One thing I loved…

Plus Gary is only one-tick Green. He still votes Labour for the electorate seat. So I'm voting for Tam in my electorate, but my party vote is for the Maori Party. I voted for Appleby in 2020. šŸ˜€
