(It also claimed they're adding lots of nurses to our healthcare and I feel like the nurses at Tauranga hospital whom I spoke to while attending strikes (in solidarity) do NOT agree with that assessment.)

There is one fewer electorate seats in the Wellington region, thanks to Nicola Willis.
The other non-Green MP electorates except Kāpiti have a current Labour MP contesting them.
Craig has only 2 options to stand as a new Labour candidate in the Capital, and both are currently Green electorates.

This absolutely sucks, but it's also not limited to Facebook. I don't think social media is very good, in general.
I limit my time here heavily as it feels like being able to engage with a lot of people I appreciate, comes at the cost of my mental wellbeing if I am overexposed.

Worst NACT act of the week IMHO is the banning of puberty blockers. The targeting of our young people and m trans community is truly vile. Leave these life changing decisions where they belong.

My dearest friend set up the weekly and monthly donation options so that we can stay alive after a tent was destroyed just 100 meters away from us last night. The sand covered our faces while we were still alive.
I’m deeply depressed and can’t keep begging one by one for help anymore.

Restricting the availability of puberty blockers to trans kids but allowing them for cis kids is a blatant violation of NZBORA (1990) and the Human Rights Act (1993).
This will undoubtedly end up in court - very quickly as the subject of a Judicial Review.
