Te Tauihu Aotearoa Tangata Tiriti she/her An optimistic pessimist or a pessimistic optimist. Depends on the day. Being obsessed with Kate Bush and Tori Amos is my personality. You may have to explain a joke that I take too literally. Library type person.

What do you mean by accomplish? Change the world, make money, create world peace? Probably not. However, many people accomplish learning a little bit about ppl they might never have met irl, feel a little less lonely, flush out thoughts and get feedback. That's something, no?

And some of you hate that he is just old because you hate older people. Period. You need to address that with yourself NOW. And some of you are weaponizing the fact that he’s older in an awful way (while ignoring that Trump is, too, just in a different way).

Americans have a real problem with older people and the concept of aging. The culture is rife with ageism. It’s going to official bite us in the ass if we don’t address it. Wow.

My daughter has a new friend that moved here recently. It's just the mum and the kids and the dad has stayed in their old town. My daughter, who is very good at building things, has become their handy man and it's adorable.

I would have been better off thinking about how I might teach the cat to dance, because no TERF has ever turned up in any space the actual work of feminism is being done. There's not many of them, their ideas are unpopular, and they just want to harrass trans people.

Also, it's inevitable that when someone is mad googling a NZ topic, if you search their TL, you will probably see they somehow conflate NZ and Australia.

True. Kiwis don't really understand the intricacies of the political and justice system of the US any more than USians understand here.

It's a bit baffling. Seems like her inability to see context matters lead her to believe something was being said that wasn't.

That one is def included in what I'm whingeing about. It's not that I even agree or disagree but seeing people not being able to fathom they might not quite have full context is bizarre. I might pick a random country and argue with the people there why I understand their local issue based on NZ.

The "we can google all we need to know about intricate NZ issues" seems to have intensified amongst the USians lately. Context doesn't matter, apparently.
