My mom is amazing. I’m home alone and she has supplied me with a single serve babotie…my all time favourite meal. Shout out to all those Moms who still nurture their kids even when they’re in their 50s 👍

I asked my husband if he could get me a watch for my birthday. Here is his granddads watch resized to fit my tiny wrist. I love how I can wear a part of history, it’s a well worn gem ♥️

Fantastic night out at Cinderella, my view a little far back with the bonus of a great view into the pit. An aural and visual treat. The story line 😍. When i commented to the 12 yr old ‘that’s not how I remember the story going’. She said: ‘they didn’t do gay then’ 😂 @nzballet

Do NZ’s future health workforce recruits know we haven’t sorted pay equity, parity, or the gender pay gap yet… oh, and the real wage cuts inflicted on HCWs across the board thru Covid? #investinpeople #investinhealth @ASMSNZ @NZNOAotearoa @NZPSA @EtuUnion

To people in other places where hate groups plan to march: please know you can stand against them. Don’t let them filth up your house with their dangerous ideas. We need to protect our young people, and show them how to fight back. We did it today in Dunedin, and I’m so proud.

Today Dunedin rallied against disinformation and extreme right hate group Freedom & Rights Coalition and it’s Destiny Church pastor leader. It was a phenomenal success. We understood the assignment, and outnumbered F&R 45-400 (at peak).

When trans people lose rights everyone becomes open to scrutiny by the gender police. Anyone empowered to police gender is not trying to protect anyone - they’re like a teacher that hates you and loves their red pen.
