Dared to take my big bro and niece freshly flown in yesterday from UK to the beach last night. Woke to this today.
Perfection.
I popped in for a swim and it was glorious

He wasn’t the worst one and it has HUGE impacts politically and human rights.
The fact that he ended his stint in life with a call for peace in Gaza “etc” was huge.

I’ve kinda thought some of his stuff lately was pretty

Glad I stayed city side.
It’s always so jarring when people don’t get that human rights apply to everyone regardless of citizenship. Human rights are inherent and arbitrary arrest is considered a bad thing for all humans everywhere.

Out of interest - why the hate on Meghan Markle?
I’m not invested I just don’t get/what she has done to deserve it?
I noticed it bc of her new show.
It’s not not a but randomly ended up watching it with a kid who loved it, simple instruction to “make” some basic stuff.
Am I missing something?
I’m pleased to say the Police have just announced they have removed Destiny Church groups Man Up and Legacy from their register of accredited providers and they will no longer be referring offenders to them. Good sense prevails. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3606...

PSA - today is the most important religious day of the year.
It’s Shrove Tuesday.
Aka Pancake day.
You have to eat them it’s the law.
(Most recently catholic but like many Christian days it was “borrowed” from pagan festival, although the Slavs did it way better - it was pancake week)
That’s the best issue to have for this problem! 🤣

Louisiana signs extradition order for New York doc who prescribed abortion pill out of state. This is a war on women & reproductive healthcare.
“Carpenter did nothing illegal: New York is shield state that protects abortion providers & allows them to mail abortion meds without fear of prosecution”
I’m thinking of watching Handmaids tale again just to make myself feel better about whatever the hell is going on in the states.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:
-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.
-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.

But in other news, I’m looking after my mates shop/cafe for the avo.
If you’re in central Tāmaki stop by for something cold or a record or a cool band tee or something ;)
