today I bought a food processor and a bunch of containers for the freezer - I am going to be UNSTOPPABLE in the kitchen from this day forward 🙂↕️
I was in Kmart earlier and these two ladies next to me were asking Ch*tGPT on their phone whether the store sold a particular type of item... YOU'RE IN THE STORE! JUST LOOK!!! ALTERNATIVELY! YOU ARE ON YOUR PHONE! GO TO THEIR WEBSITE!!!
New Zealand expert here! This is not funny, New Zealand only does this when it’s in extreme distress.
Chris sacked Chris for plotting to replace Chris with Chris to stand against Chris #nzpol
what an ordeal for fuck all, okay cool, cheers I guess #nzpol
I miss when we were all on Twitter together, #nzpol would be going so hard over there back in the day
snowing in central Wellington and the whole office has lost the plot - people are glued to the windows and some are running out onto the street
the venn diagram of people who were at Auckland Zinefest this weekend and then also Dropout Live tonight is almost a circle
everyone in my screening clapped at the end of Spiderman: Brand New Day... fucking nerds (I am a nerd)
-Meta glasses: disgusting -AI generated flyers, restaurant menus etc: disgusting -Subscriptionification of everything: disgusting -Corporate price gouging masked as inflation: disgusting
I bought a new phone but haven't had a chance to get a case or screen protector so I am carrying this shit around like it's a newborn
You know the propaganda goes deep when we got people out here more afraid of socialism than they are of actual fascists. Like "oh no you think i care about society? Thats so embarrassing, no i prefer my tax money spent on enslaving me to a system that treats me like cattle lol thank you"
two major death announcements and two very different public reactions - something to think about the kind of legacy you want to leave, huh
The Basement Yard on Smosh Mouth? Tall about when worlds collide
I can't wait to see my favourite male podcasters danisnotonfire and amazingphil 🪩🔮💜🚀
I'm laying on the couch with my deaf cat sleeping on my stomach and it was so lovely until I farted and he woke up glaring at me (sorry)
they only want us to enjoy ourselves **sometimes**
Wellington in March: Wow, this ($217m) library upgrade is truly transformational for city! We believe in civic investment again! Wellington City Council in June: the enormous festering dead zone in our city is worth, um, $20m.
I'm flying back to New Zealand tomorrow and one thing I am really going to miss from England is the gluten free section in M&S 💔
shout out to the lady who served me at a café and gave me my hot chocolate for free saying that she loves when people who like the colour purple have everything on purple (my hair, bag, phone case and raincoat are all purple)
before coming to London I knew Selfridges was going to be big but goodness gracious this place is bonkers - what's worse is we chose to come here on a Saturday
I saw a lady busking today, full on opera singing, but wearing business casual while doing so - no shame to her, rock on my queen
Our entire economy is being artificially propped up by astrology for men: AI, crypto, sports betting, and prediction markets. It's an economy shaped entirely by male insecurity and lack of impulse control, and we'll all pay the price.
I didn't think my New Zealand accent was that strong, but I've been clocked by two servicepeople today
who would have thought that 28-30°C sunny days in Brighton over a bank holiday weekend would bring absolutely everybody out to the beach and shops - while I am meant to be on my nice and chill holiday here
the people-pleaser in me is for sure "give until gone"
Tag yourself. I'm "Do not spin"
I thought TVNZ On Demand was bad before, but since their update it has become even worse - not only can I not play it through my PS4 but I'm gaining settings I can't turn off and losing my watch history 🙃
happy NZ Celebrity Treasure Island day to all those who celebrate
