David Tennant responds to backlash against pro-trans t-shirt.

“I’ll be fine, Terfs can’t climb stairs, and I still have my sonic screwdriver.”

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

Billie Eilish is the perfect example of how BOTH extremes in America often overstep to attack people’s personal decisions for idiotic reasons.

This quote from Eilish sums things up perfectly:

"I spent the first 5 years of my career getting absolutely OBLITERATED by you fools for being boyish and dressing how i did & constantly being told i'd be hotter if I acted like a woman. Now when I feel comfortable enough to wear anything remotely feminine or fitting, I CHANGED and am a sellout."

Let people live as long as it’s not hurting anyone else.

"You're so smart for a black/māori/immigrant (whatever context that person knows me in) girl!"
Like wow way to show your true bigotry cister 🤠

What seems like a compliment but it is actually an insult?

[Daija Kōpere Kamama Verrian @yikesitsdk]

can I make a poem out of this fr

[Grace @graceeruiha]

Imagine standing on the paepae being like “I Am An Indigenous Person” 💀💀💀

[Grace @graceeruiha]

I love Eurocentric people pointing out that “Indigenous” is a Eurocentric term like yes we know that, we literally use the term for your benefit. We don’t sit around defining ourselves as Indigenous when we are among our own people

[Grace @graceeruiha]

Like, I don’t even describe myself as Māori or Indigenous to other Māori. I just use my iwi and/or hapū. You’re wading into territories you don’t even have a clue about

[Daija Kōpere Kamama Verrian @yikesitsdk]

this thoooooo 🥰

[Grace @graceeruiha]

“Matariki is made up” ah yes and fireworks sprung up naturally from the taiao ready to go boom, a true gift from the atua

[IndiePixie @indie_pixel]

Im Māori & I’d really like someone to point me to the queue where I can line up for all the extra unfair benefits that non Māori aren’t getting. So far I’ve been in the other line where Māori have all the worst recorded life, health, learning & judicial outcomes, & Im confused.

[Grace @graceeruiha]

even if you don’t agree with co-governance the idea of walking into te ao Māori, ‘welcoming’ people onto Māori land, and then choosing that platform to make a speech against co-gov is so arrogant & disrespectful. We need historical education yesterday.
