I voted for Kerrin Leoni but not with any great enthusiasm. I won't vote for Wayne Brown and abstaining means he'll get in again (he probably will, but at least it won't look like everyone supports him.)

Every time this happens, you get people saying that political assassination is not the American way, when a quick look at history shows that, in fact, it very much is.

This was Jasper on a wet and windy morning in Auckland, telling me I should stay in bed.

I spotted this duck and her ducklings at Lake Rotoroa in Hamilton. She was being very protective so it was hard to get a good shot. I got this when she was distracted by the nosy pūkekō on the right.

Always amusing when racist white people object to Te Reo then go on to say that they're a "kiwi". What language do they think "kiwi" is?

I also encountered a dead whale on a beach many years ago. Not an experience I'd want to repeat 🀒
I am in Hamilton this weekend and went to the Tamahere Market, which you would love. Lots of interesting stalls, people, and SO MANY dogs.

An old friend, sadly gone, was a gay man. He used to tell the story of his school days when most of his friends were girls, and the response from the straight boys was "You must be a poofter - you like GIRLS!" RIP, Brett.

Alcohol acts as a disinhibitor, so drinking or drug use can trigger violent behavior. But they don't cause violence because not everyone who gets drunk becomes violent. And not all abusers use alcohol or drugs.

George had us convinced not so long ago that he was a good socialist, to the extent that the group we were both part of brought him out to NZ to speak against Islamophobia. Either he changed his thinking or he was a very convincing actor.
