In a classic piece of mansplaining today’s paper has an opinion piece on menopause and what it means for a woman’s sex life written by a bloke. Helpfully the last paragraph reads, “menopause is a journey.” Perhaps next time find a woman who’s on the fucking journey to write it.
I think it’s a credit to the Parliamentary Press team that so many of them are sober and able to get to the Beehive at 9pm on a Saturday night.

Here’s to the real heroes of the weekend - those braving the elements to staff vaccination centres up and down the country. RT if you’d like to salute them rather than the vocal minority.

I really don't mind that
@nzherald
uses my social media to spread the message of body positivity. But gee I contribute a lot of content to them for free. Maybe they could give $100 to
@aunties_the
every time they use it. That seems fair. RT if you agree.
It’s actually really sad these protesters believe they’re being poisoned by the government rather than infected by the virus at the heart of a global pandemic.
Chuckling away to myself at the angry messages from conspiracy theorists who are offended by me labelling them cockwombles. When the NZ army institutes its secret martial law plan I’ll be sure to amend my terminology.

Ever wondered why more high profile people don’t put their hands up and declare themselves pro-vaccine. Here’s a snapshot from just the last hour. Can’t be stuffed hiding their names anymore.
I can confirm what you heard on
@SevenSharp
is true. I will send every person who has their first Covid vaccine this weekend a chocolate fish. Send proof of vaccine and details to sevensharp

Thanks so much to the extraordinary number of New Zealanders who tuned in on Saturday night. So thrilled to have been your
#1
choice for the evening (by a landslide.) That's choice!
To claim to have got lost driving on the motorway when the Novotel Ellerslie is almost built directly on SH1 is implausible. You literally drive 20 metres to the motorway and then follow it all the way to Wellington. I don’t buy it.
When you see the queues of Brits waiting outside supermarkets preparing for a second lockdown you feel very grateful to be waking up this morning in NZ.
Is anyone else keen to embrace
#flufffriday
today? I mean let’s face it women of NZ you’re probably dressed as a piece of fluff already without even realising it. RT and tag your friends!

Trump about New Zealand: “They had a massive breakout yesterday.”
New Zealand holds one hand up and counts the number of new cases it had yesterday. 🖐

A fornicator is someone who has had sexual intercourse out of wedlock. So to explain it simply for you .. I had sex before I was married.

I see a lot of parents unsure about whether to send their kids to school next week. Follow your heart. Follow your gut. If it's not the right thing for you then don't. If it is, then do. There is no right answer. You're a good parent either way.
I’m offended by all of Mr B’s mates who are currently texting him messages of support and good luck because he’s isolating with me for two weeks. The cheek of it!!
The
#formalfriday
movement really has filled my heart during the lockdown. Thanks for the giggles and the effort and the absolute nuts of it all. It’s one part of this crazy time that I will remember very fondly.
I never realised until Covid-19 the astronomical amount Ubereats takes from restaurants (between 30-35%) Today they sent me this email. I’m now deleting/unsubscribing from Ubereats right now. NZ hospo businesses will get 100% of my spend.
This is posted without animosity but please keep Liz Gunn in your thoughts and prayers. Her descent into the conspiracy realm makes me really sad and concerned.
To every fabulous person who went and got their first jab over the weekend, you have have until midnight tonight to email me your details and proof of vaccine to get that chocolate fish. Thanks for getting vaccinated!! Email: sevensharp

Someone on Facebook suggested I do a sugar free recipe next

. So you want to suck the joy out of every last freedom of lockdown? Yeah, nah.

Congratulations! And as a fellow parent of a Finn can I warn you not to yell his name at the beach. People will, and do, run out of the water 🦈
I’d like to acknowledge and pay tribute to the incredible
@FlyAirNZ
staff onboard flights to Christchurch today. They have offered comfort and kindness to so many grieving families. This is what NZ is.

@Hilary_Barry
, a news anchor here in NZ 🇳🇿 promised anyone who got their
#covid19vacccine
that weekend a chocolate fish. Her co-anchors thought she was bluffing, majority of NZ thought she was bluffing.
I am posting this to confirm she wasn't bluffing!
On the phone to insurance company. Customer Sevices Rep asks, “Have you had any criminal convictions in the last 7 years?” No, I reply. Her response? “I’m so proud of you.” 😂
