Ugh. Woolworths, I specifically do online shopping and select eLocker so I *don’t* have to talk to people. That’s twice in a row you have forced this introvert to interact with humanity!

β€˜I need to make you suffer’: My near decade of violent harassment by a man I barely know Zeni Gibson has been stalked and gruesomely harassed for nearly nine years by a man in Wellington she rejected when she was 17. This is her story.

I listened to this earlier today and was horrified. No one should have to live with that kind of harassment and abuse!

It’s heartbreaking. Accessing gender affirming care is already too difficult. Wait times are incredibly long and your experience varies by DHB. Making it harder will mean greater distress for young people. There will be lives lost.

Three of mine are the same as yours, and I’ve performed slam poems about two of them!
1. Parenting trans kids
2. Teaching neurodiverse kids (particularly PDA)
3. How the mental health system is failing our young people
4. Why John Boyne is a terrible writer
5. How to write flash fiction

That’s very offensive. Potatoes are way more useful and enjoyable than The Thumb.
