Fill in the gap: It takes _________ for NZ First to set up a stand in a market where the majority of stallholders are Asian New Zealanders.

This is an open-air market in a car park with rows of various stalls under simple canopies and gazebos, set on a grey, overcast day with a wet ground.
In the immediate foreground is a blue information banner for the New Zealand First party with the text "NEW ZEALAND FIRST" and "PUTTING NEW ZEALAND AND NEW ZEALANDERS FIRST," located near a black gazebo and a booth with a sign for "AFTER'S RAW HONEY."
The other market stands, primarily located on the right, feature a variety of fresh produce, flowers, and goods, including signs for "Fresh Asian Greens," "Best Grapes," and "Handcrafted Baskets." These stalls are being operated by diverse small business owners, with several of the vendors visible being Asian New Zealanders and other New Zealanders of colour. Several customers are browsing the diverse offerings along the row of stands.

It looks like someone has turned their Bluesky posts into stickers

A close-up photograph of a black metal post on a city street, featuring three stickers stacked vertically. The blurred background shows a paved footpath with people walking past shopfronts, including a sign that reads "ALPHANOCLES".
The three stickers, from top to bottom, show:
Top sticker: A square white sticker with black text reading:
"NZ" "leftists" are openly genocidal and eugenicist but in a "woke" way. Decolonize your mind or continue costing us our futures collectively. - Wear a mask the pandemic is ongoing. - Read lenin.
Middle sticker: A small rectangular sticker split into two panels. The left side has a red-tinted background with a masked face and text that reads: "HEY refusing to mask in an ongoing pandemic is pro-establishment". The right side features a classic black-and-white internet rage comic character (the 'Rage Guy') with angry red eyes and the text: "anti-establishment hypocrites".
Bottom sticker: A circular white sticker featuring a grey-and-black stylized gorilla and the bold text: "APES STRONG TOGETHER".

I hope this little lost dragon finds their person. #Wellington

A close-up shot of a small, fluffy dragon plushie sitting on a wooden public bench in Wellington's Cuba Mall. The plush toy has large, glittery eyes, a bright pink and orange tie-dye head and back, a white furry belly, and small red hands and feet. The background is softly blurred, showing the iconic brick footpath of the mall with a few pedestrians walking away, shopfronts, and a partial glimpse of the Bucket Fountain on the left.

Waka Kotahi

An eye-level, medium shot taken from an elevated window looking down onto Emerson Street, Berhampore, during a severe flood at night. The street is completely submerged in murky, waist-deep water.
Six vehicles are scattered across the frame, partially submerged and tilted at various angles by the force of the water; one white car in the centre has its brake lights glowing red, reflecting on the surface. In the background, two-storey wooden villas with white balconies and lit windows line the street. Rain is visible as white streaks against the dark night sky.

I bet the Artemis II astronauts will count this as the second best splashdown they had that day.

An aerial photograph shows a space capsule splashing down into a deep blue ocean, supported by three large, red-and-white striped parachutes.
A large, white speech bubble points to the capsule with the text: "Thank goodness! I was dying for a pee!" The image makes a cheeky reference to the real-life plumbing issues faced by astronauts on long missions like Artemis II.

Absolutely Poositively Wellington

A graphic featuring three horizontal bands. The top and bottom bands are black with white, serif-style text, while the middle band is white with black, stylized text.

Top band: The word "ABSOLUTELY" in all caps.

Middle band: The word "POOSITIVELY" in a playful, slightly irregular sans-serif font, where the letters are unevenly aligned.

Bottom band: The word "WELLINGTON" in all caps.

The overall design is a humorous play on the famous "Absolutely Positively Wellington" city slogan.
