Just got home from the G. If you’re easily offended then keep scrolling. Tonight was the most boring couple of hours my wife and I have ever sat through. MCG and isn’t made for rugby. Even “amazing” seats - we were still miles from the action. MCG is made for real footy not rugby

Had a random impulse and just bought curry dinner from the Taj Mahal in main street of Te Aroha. Think I ordered Taj Medium not NZ Medium by mistake. My lips and mouth are currently ablaze.

Blues should be no where near a semi finals game. Might be the only team to lose their way into a finals series and then a semi final. #HURvBLU

How was that midair collision with Beauden not a yellow or red card?

Another @NZWarriors game, another boatload of empty blue seats for a "sold out" game. Another breathless @NZStuff report faithfully reporting a "packed house" of 25K. Man I'd love to have the resources of the NRL Marketing dept and their genuine talent for bullshit.

Ordered contact lenses today, it was cheaper to use a discount associated with NRMA road side assistance than it was to claim it via my health fund. 🤷‍♂️ So strange and highlights what a rip off Australian private health insurance is.

To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis: Show us your laptop. Show us your iCloud. Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation. You won’t. You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out. That is not who we are. My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count. For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame. I no longer believe that. Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us. And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts. That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena. Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next. Life does not determine our character. It reveals it. Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next? We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day. So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop. You won’t. The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing. That is the only definition that matters.

@politikarma @MikeCarlton01 How can Hanson be doing this well? A desperately sad state of affairs in Australia that a notorious, long term grifter can be pulling the wool over the eyes of an increasingly stupid electorate.

Tell me one thing Pauline Hanson has actually done to prioritise the working class over herself? Skipping dessert during a dinner with Gina Rinehart doesn’t qualify #auspol #paulinehanson

@SuperRugby They've exorcised the Saders demons. The next lot are in all likelihood grand final ones presented by the white hot Canes :)

Wealthy Auckland communities threaten Barfoot & Thompson boycott over Gypsy Tea Room closure, via @nzherald nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland/we… I'll definitely stop buying million dollar properties sold by B&T in solidarity. (And yes it's a real shame Gypsy's closing.)

@NZFatso Haven't had a ton of luck but probably still should have banked another title since the Rennie years.

Imagine being the Chiefs and finally slaying your Crusaders demons, only to lose yet another grand final, this time to a fresh foe the Hurricanes.

Kane Williamson, what a player. Retires as one of our greatest cricketers ever. Go well.
