It annoys me that people have voted against it.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 3h

Our new mayor is against them. Out 3 mayoral candidates, 2 were against maori wards. Useless kirsten wise wanted to keep them. But Napier didn't want to keep her.

Hawkes Bay
A bunch of racist white collar nat voters. I voted to keep them.
Kirsten Wise was also voted out as mayor in Napier.

I can’t believe an inflatable frog is my hometown’s symbol of resistance, and yet of course since I am from here I absolutely can

this is old school homegrown “rioting over the airport changing its carpet” Portland freak shit. it transcends the Portlandia mythos. writers would not think of this

I need a pink Christmas tree or I decorate my green tree with pink decorations. Maybe throw some white decorations in as well. I need to break from tradition and go for my favorite colour.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 1d

He better not get it. Somehow elon became a nominee as well. We have to wait until 10pm tonight to find out.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 1d

Okay they do do Afterpay. The toaster is too big for my needs - a single person. Have never had a need for a 4 slice toaster, ever. The kettle yes.
Toaster - no.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 1d

Did that on Wednesday. Hopefully we have change in Mayor here in Napier

The rule of 3 is a great interior design thing. My sister told me that one.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 1d

I also found a vintage phone - in pink. I don't have a landline, but you know still need a pink phone. Mighty Ape NZ.
I need it.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 1d

The Warehouse dont do Afterpay which is a shame because they have pink kettle & toasters.
The kettle is $49. I think I may just get the jug. Put it on credit card. I think they do old fashioned layby still.

Hard agree. What a fkn wanker Brownlee is.

Michael Bain @mikejbain.bsky.social · 1d

We live in a Māori nation. Our Parliament should reflect that more. The haka from the public gallery is an appropriate response to a maiden speech. Suspended Parliament only reminds Māori that they are not welcome to be authentically themselves there. #nzpol

Watch: Haka breaks out after Te Pāti Māori MP Oriini Kaipara's maiden speech, Parliament suspended

Speaker Gerry Brownlee intends to investigate whether anyone knew the haka would take place after Te Pāti Māori MP Oriini Kaipara's maiden speech.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 2d

He was the disrespectful one today. Such a racist government.

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 2d

How long do new MPs get for their Maiden speeches? Parliament was just suspended with brownlie walking out. Can't handle a haka

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 2d

I have stopped watching breakfast tv. It's a National party political broadcast

Megs @t3ddybear.bsky.social · 3d

Sounds like a great idea.
