Ignore the fact there's less people on work-ready job seeker benefits now than there were under National & most of them have mental health issues & are white but it's not the white ones I'm targeting. Besides, there's job vacancies on EVERY shop window of every provincial town in this country.
it often seems. like the human is jealous of me. because of how happy i get. about the simplest things. i don’t know how to tell them. they can do that too

The chair was, of course, Christopher Luxon
