Well, if I'm going to spend all night typing, let's get cracking:
First, some fun stuff -- Gary, Jeffery, Christ and I on Cuba Street .. Friday night:

Why do I keep coming back after I kill my profiles?
Well, the first time was for the 2020 Election. I had the sandwich board, and the business page was approved for Political Advertising, so I figured what the hell.
The second time was because Stephen was sick of uploading my music videos, and he was keen to take a step back .. but I only officially took over the business after the occupation.
Then, once I'm online, I read the feeds and my righteous indignation starts bubbling up. Plus my activist friends encourage me.
My personal business page was the byproduct of the band breaking up, then my webseries was a real success, so I decided to keep advertising. 👍
Here's a meme version:

I dunno why James Shaw is so anti-Amanda .. that baffles me. I've never said anything bad about him publicly.
Yes, my rationale for why Ms Swarbrick shouldn't contest the leadership was cynical, but politics has made me cynical.
My guess: some latent homophobia. Though that's just a guess..

Strategy chat:
Ok, so Gary proffered some suggestions about the next club tonight.
He reckons we should be a Hydra-style cooperative, so when one person is busted, another can take their place. That's also how the conscientious objectors operated during WWII.
We saw a good venue, but we're broke. Cuba Street -- that's the dream.
My personal feeling is that we should expand from cannabis and become a safe space for all drug use (except alcohol 🤣).

My plans for Election 2023: I haven't registered for Political Advertising, but if I'm allowed to continue running my campaign, I shall register and do something similar to my 2020 theatrics.
I'm jazzed -- I just discovered my birth certificate is valid ID. 🧠

For Sinead and the Wellington journos: I read the paper version of the Post tonight at Midnight Espresso, and was impressed.
It was way more fun than reading the Stuff website! 🥝
