Lotographia 🍹

I, an early riser, have to wait until ELEVEN to cast my vote??? I guess I'll just go sit outside the voting place for four hours and yearn.

If the website was struggling to process all new enrolments then extra time NEEDS to have been added to the cutoff time. Exactly like how if you're in line to vote when voting ends, you should still get to vote. Somehow I don't think this government will make this allowance.

I don't think enough of you have seen this shirt of a dragon riding a skateboard

If you zoom in real hard on the tiny tall person wearing the green shirt on the far right, you can juuust make out my new haircut 😊

🚩 Marked Enrolled For The 2026 General Election

Listening to a teen on the train explaining to another teen that "National are like the Democrats" At least they're engaging in political discourse I suppose

I rockrolled my partner. A second later, she accidentally rockrolled herself. Five minutes later, she accidentally rickrolled herself a second time. All she wanted was to play Pump Up The Jam.

I just watched the "Cat in the Hat" trailer and there's a bit where the Cat says "If we don't find [the McGuffin], the universe will be destroyed forever!" Am I misremembering or was the End of the World not a big theme in the works of Dr. Seuss? :( Hollywood gonna Hollywood I guess

I'm going to print out my EasyVote card at the earliest opportunity and stick it in my wallet and handcuff the wallet to my wrist until after the election

Goof: When Anakin Skywalker says "Now this is podracing", he is not in fact podracing.

I made the mistake of looking at Facebook comments and the problem with this government's tactic of voter suppression by surgical inconvenience is that it has enough plausible deniability that boomers don't really understand what the problem is 😖

I denounce: * Harry Potter LEGO * Non-Transforming Transformers * The half-arsed revival of Micro Machines * The Playmobil Movie * Going back to LEGO, I also denounce when they take an important component of a premium quality set and make it only available in a separate temporary promotional set

This one time I saw that a bridge was out and I thought to myself "damn it there is literally no defensive action that I can take" so I drove into it and I died I also once drove off a cargo plane by mistake :(

The purpose of a system is what it does. The purpose of this government's electoral decisions is to reduce voter turnout.

Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person For Tax Purposes

Big Girls Don't Cry For Tax Purposes. (go see this film at the cinema btw, it is very good local cinema)

Whenever I need to downsize my DVD collection, Due South immediately gets sorted into the "Definitely Keeping" pile

Sometimes the world is great.

Blue-greens are people who treasure the environment of the Lady Norwood Rose Garden and Begonia House specifically.

Thinking about the difference between Opportunity and Green. Opp: "We don't really stand for anything, we'll back down without hesitation, all we care about is getting the 'kingmaker' position" Green: "Other parties won't support our bold ambitious but we DGAF, these are all the things we want 💅"

I have dressed poorly for the first day of Summer in Wellington.

First year university hall residence I was voted "most likely to appear on the 6 o'clock news". I have no idea what that meant. My entire personality at the time was "depressed".

I see two completely unrelated Brian Blessed posts and assume he has died. He has not died. People are just in a very Blessed mood for some reason.

I am adding "Public Execution" to "HBO Harry Potter Series" in my list of things I am likely to unfollow and/or block people for if I find out they are watching these things.

Heartbreaking moment today: I had to explain to a Gen X guy that he is only one generation removed from Boomers 😢

I'm largely ignoring AI bros, but what I do find interesting here is a neurotypical guy faking what he perceives as a neurodivergent hobby out of "social obligation". This brings me great joy. How does it feel to have the tables turned, guy-who-probably-knows-how-to-make-small-talk-at-parties?

Does anyone know if it's possible to track down who is paying for a specific billboard? This billboard on Murphy Street outside Thorndon New World exactly matches National Party content but has no authorisation statement and no owner other than "concerned citizens". I would like to do Research.

Sometimes you see someone who is so completely in control of their destiny eh. Like, woman in office dress walking up Featherston Street barefoot, shoes in hand.

I caught snippets of this on the way the airport, sounded very "RNZ v RNZ", going to have to listen to the full thing later.

The orcas are going after Jeff Bezos. The sea itself is going after Jeff Bezos. It's all on.
