SHOW & TELL — Freya Daly Sadgrove

I have started a blog in the year 2026 :) do u want to see my twig houses and so on

U get to make that bit up yourself though :)

Oh noe I accidentally apologised to the cafe waiter for ordering a coffee and also said ‘is that alright?’ about it. It was just a normal coffee

Ugh. Arid

Wow just found out It’s Spotted OR Herbacious. What a damn fool I am

This is a fairly long shot but does anyone else think about the Spotted Herbacious Backson whenever they briefly leave the house

No i 100% victim blame you 😇

But then I must point it out. And I am back among the damn skipping rope

Sometimes I say something so true that I feel I never have to speak again

You literally never meet a bee who is a cunt

So I’m deeply pleased to meet a teddy bear. I do rly miss my friends back home, who I consider good models of tiriti partners. Fuck I love bees!!!!!! Thank u to bees for existing

And while they are not bombus, they are bombiformis!!!!!! And they are native!!!!!!! And I love them

We had a bee visitor in our Sydney garden I had never seen before. My flatmate said is that a BUMBLEBEE? And I said that’s no bumblebee. You don’t have them on the mainland and I miss them. but guess what Australia DOES have on the mainland. TEDDY BEAR BEES

Unsure if I should be concerned or pleased that my unexpressed fury has started giving me sorta ASMR

Fuck

Thank u for seeing me

Yeah cos otherwise it’s fuckin 30 bucks for like 750ml from Bunnings! Get wrecked!

Fuck I love my 5L bottle of isopropyl alcohol that I got for ten dollars from Sydney Solvents

hope i don't get baselessly threatened with legal action again, an obvious intimidation and silencing tactic, lucky for me i've got a big powerful law family so the threats don't have quite the same impact on me as they do on the swathes of young wellingtonians who have been bullied into silence

in a city as small as wellington, u would hope that a known groomer and abuser would not manage to get a job engaging closely with vulnerable young people. alas

This is so usable holy crap. Employing immediately. The sentence could be unfinished!!!!!!!!! Wow

Not true more like 80-100

I’m also just becoming more of a Luddite (complimentary) with every passing day and I’d rather not have my phone than not have a pen. I’m just really pure 😇

I don't mean to panic anyone but it appears our prime minister is Christopher Luxon

How independent and self-sufficient are we all really? Who grows the vegetables we use for cooking? Who raises or kills the animals? Who paved the roads we drive on? Humans are interdependent, and it's not a bad thing. Your worthiness as a person doesn't depend on your self-sufficiency. /2

I don’t need the pen for recording ideas!!!! There are a million ways to do that!!! I need the pen to feel the pen moving over paper 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

Oh Kara. Oh, Kara Kara Kara.

So was this a cabinet decision or are major policy decisions being made and communicated to overseas agencies without cabinet approval? If it was cabinet approved, what was the logic behind it? Why is NZ at odds with most of the world on this?

That is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me Jim (I am 5 mins from my home and gonna pop back and get it hehehe)
