Casita is a small charity in the Bay of Plenty, Aotearoa, who provides respite care focused on getting work experience and learning different skills, while providing a safe and supportive environment for disabled young adults + giving them a community.

They have more and more requests from young disabled people to join up, but with rough economic conditions and rising operational costs, they're currently struggling with funding, which is affecting their ability to provide opportunities + expand into other opportunities that youth working with them are interested in.

They're also got a FB page if you want to support them + give them some love!

what??what the fuck? hello?

i hate how they market alexa as a ‘member of the family’ like that’s SO fucking blatantly insidious and terrifying also if i wanted an untrustworthy/cold/emotionless machine in my life i’d just talk to my fuckin father 

I feel the word "helping" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here

aotearoa friends: i’m writing a submission to parliament against the fast-track approvals bill using forest and bird’s guide. if anyone wants me to send them my submission i’m happy to, you can change name/personal details and submit it yourself as well. submissions have to be made by the end of the week

this is such an awful fucking bill that would have terrible, long-term impacts on our environment. the more submissions we have, the better!

unfriendly reminder that aotearoa is currently under the thumb of the most corrupt nasty disgusting evil little rats

Op is a terf reblog this version instead

this headline is so fucking horrible why is it whenever indigenous people are murdered everyone avoids saying they were murdered

in australia if a girl goes to the bathroom and comes back with a seemingly random fact then you know exactly what time of the month it is

Star wars fans don't appropriate māori and pasifika culture challenge (impossible)

I really wish arknights didn't have a character who's named for an ethnic slur of my people

The rainbow crossings that were painted over. It's a horrible hate crime but one thing stands out to me. The white made the rainbow brighter when they repainted it. The rain washed the water-based paint away to reveal the rainbow. And the voices of allies and lbgtqia+ people drowned out the hate. Because goodness knows our government won't do anything about it. We all know how they feel about queer people.
