@lilyffranklin13 Wooooo

I’m back motherfuckers

@SaiyamiKher Why don't you move to a better place? Cleaner air. Your health is not worth your city is it?

I started running a decade ago. Every morning, I’d find myself on Carter Road, chasing the ocean breeze. That wind is what made me fall in love with this city and running. I want to feel it again. And dystopian as it is, I put on a mask before lacing my shoes. It took me back to the pandemic. Except there’s no virus in the air endangering our life. The air itself could kill us. I never imagined a day when the very thing we breathe to survive would become a luxury. My doors and windows stay shut. I bought an air purifier. I moved my runs to a treadmill, staring at a wall instead of the sea. And it still isn’t enough. Running is the thing that keeps me whole. It clears my head. It heals something in me that nothing else reaches. But now the act I built my life around feels like it’s quietly destroying me. Pollution is undoing what years of discipline and sweat and devotion built, one breath at a time. This isn’t seasonal anymore. It shouldn’t be political. But somewhere between the data and the denial, people like me are out there in masks, grieving a morning run, mourning a city we loved. Is basic accountability really too much to ask for?

@ClaireMax Performance over looks any day.

Torn between wanting to get leaner because if you’re a fitness person on the internet everyone expects you to be shredded all the time (not possible or sustainable for most people, esp women) and loving how strong I am getting while I’m a little heavier. I am STACKING strength and crushing PRs like crazy, but the tradeoff is that my abs aren’t as defined. If I go into a deficit my strength will stall out, that’s just kinda how it works. Will you guys still love me if I have a little squish but can squat 300lbs

@lilyffranklin13 Good to see you back. Merry Xmas.

Meri Kirihimete my Twitter friends!! Hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas if you celebrate, and a lovely Thursday if you do not ❤️ happy Boxing Day eve x

@metro_mim Ya it's weird. I don't have any other symptoms though.

@metro_mim Wow, I didn't know that was a thing. I have never had a big burp, only very tiny puffy ones and even those are rare.

@awcwvlc Please. Pez was doing that long before Stokes came onto the scene.

To think someone once called Ellyse Perry “the Ben Stokes of women’s cricket” Don’t know if it’s relevant here but just wanted y’all to know.

@awcwvlc Where is Georgia Redmayne in all of this. Neither in the main squad nor in the A teams?

LFG!! Time for the unearthing-off

National have borrowed MORE than Labour, BUT THEY BORROWED FOR TAX CUTS FOR LANDLORDS! While cutting public services. They f'd up the ferry deals. Gutted the housing build. Tanked the economy! And trashed the treaty. Back on track? They're a f'n train wreck. #nzpol

Will Luxon let David Seymour become Deputy Prime Minister now that it's public that he protected a child sex offender?

Read this carefully: “Last year, New Zealand taxpayers forked out more money for the ongoing clean-up of a single mine site’s acid drainage in waterways, than the entire coal mining sector brought in through royalties” forestandbird.org.nz/resources/coal…

The amount of fragile men that are offended that Annabel Sutherland’s name is up on the MCG honour board is insane. ‘There should be different boards for men and women’ WHY? It’s an Australian player scoring a test century at the MCG. I’m so bloody sick of this shit. #Ashes

Act may as well rebrand as Sex Offenders R Us

@lilyffranklin13 Lol. I never saw the appeal of history. I've always been a geography nerd more. Give me rivers, coasts and climate any day.

@zeus_engineer Men who like history but it’s only ww2 are the worst

Any man out there who’s nice, likes reading, cats, classical studies and doesn’t have shit political views pls hit me up

The new $9 charge for driving in central New York City (Manhattan south of 60th St) at peak times has resulted in faster bus trips and better driving conditions for everyone, as expected. Revenue from the scheme will fund subway, bus and rail improvements for the city.

Why does public transit even have fares lmao why are you taking $3 from everyone when you could simply melt down the 3 richest guys in town into liquid gold and fund it for decades

Comment: Radical libertarian ideologies are generating extreme inequality and ripping the social fabric of NZ, writes Anne Salmond. Don’t we want to be a place where talent wants to live? #Echobox=1735932150-2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">newsroom.co.nz/2025/01/04/ann…
