I clipped the chant off of C-span. At about the 1hr36minute mark if anyone wants to find the context.
I think it’s official this is the best poster of Bills seen It was so good to return to the office after the break and see the progress being made to this community art piece. It is a favourite moment in my commute. I’d love to figure a way to label them so I can track if there are any Bills left
Respect Victoria is doing some great campaigns and studies. It’s an honour to support their Walk Against Family Violence today. I even got this great hat.
I love a piece of community art. The first photo was taken at the end of August. The second photo was taken yesterday. It’s in Maidstone and I walk past it every work day. Can you guess which two “Bills” I put up? #streetart #communityart

I’m doing Mullets For Mental Health again this April. Raining money for @blackdoginst.bsky.social to help prevent suicide. I’m off to the awesome folks at Henry Lee Barber for the second phase cut before the big one on March 29. #mulletsformentalhealth
I’ve never cried on a plane before. This is so beautiful and simple. I am so upset I’ve never known this story before, why do we keep rejecting our heritage? This is a real life Moana 2 story (without the singing). #AoNzhistory #Aotearoa #documentary
Another trip down memory lane. I can tell why this didn’t catch on. #cricket #cardcricket #cricketgames

Today I hold thoughts for my friend Clark. Taken from us this year. A life that was lived voraciously and passionately with love and joy. Almost as if he tapped too much of his source and it eventually ran out. His spirit will remain a guiding light for my journey forever.
