You can imagine my dismay to discover that what I thought was an uncomfortable wrinkle in my sock today was in fact a very squashed skink 😞

I think the desire carried through to men who rode motorbikes, but now I don’t even desire them lol.

Im not even brave enough to drive a car! 😄

David Cassidy, the Virginian, Kiss, Lord of the Rings and a Triumph motorcycle.

Oh no, your beautiful boy. I’m so sorry 💔

Wealthy, respected pillars of society out here like "I voted for National because I thought they'd do good progressive things but also give me a tax cut, how could this have gone so wrong????" but sure it's 16 year olds who need civics lessons before we let them vote

Me too. They just keep coming.

Turns out it was never Twitter or Bluesky, it was all you lot all along.

Tip for all the new twitter refugees. Give us a hint in your bio
or introductory post so we can figure out who you are 😉

Their word usage tells it all.
Chippy:
- Commonly used words include meaningful things like Health, Maori, and Tax.
- Diversion phrases are used rarely and once

Luxon:
- commonly used words are all empty like Actually, Well, and Get.
- Diversion phrases are used often and repeated.

Kia ora Aotearoa Newskies! What’s Bluesky like? It’s like the small town of Katikati in the Bay of Plenty.

It’s still quite small and everyone doesn’t necessarily know each other but you bump into folk all the time. There’s art everywhere, and sunny, friendly, good vibes. There’s also a nudist camp

Oh you’re very welcome. I like it too. It’s a bit like twitter used to be. It feels peaceful and friendly 😊

I feel like this place is that summer cottage you thought you might visit a few times a year only to end up living there full time when your house burns down.

On mobile they're under your follower count in the hamburger menu on the top left

Beautiful photos. Lots of love sewn into those costumes. My sister and I just had mum’s old frilly pink nighties and petticoats for dress ups. Still imagined I looked like a princess though!
