Can anyone tell me what happened to the New Zealand leather jacket brand “Macalister”?
I can’t find a single shred of information on them online, the only proof I have that they existed is the ratty early ‘90s jacket I have sitting on my couch waiting to be done up, with a Macalister logo sewn into the hem
I feel like I’m going crazy, I know they were made in Christchurch but… beyond that, I’m stumped
I’m sorry if the intention was lost, I just meant that Māori could very much legally remove all non-Māori from NZ without the Treaty, if it was so desired, but I definitely didn’t mean to imply that I thought that it was the intention!
Sorry, I just wanted to make a point about how insane the government is being, so thank you again for putting things straight :)
So… I’m thinking we need to rewind to the latest election and vote again… this government is insane.
Turning against the indigenous people in this day and age? Seriously?
Deciding to turn away from the Maori version of the Treaty of Waitangi is CRAZY, and could literally get us removed from the UN (which is a ridiculous risk to take in the current global climate), AND could even technically get all non-Maori kicked out of NZ (seriously, look it up, it’s terrifying)
Dammit. I guess we have to hope that Australia’s offer to let us be part of them still stands. Probably a couple of centuries too late though.

Today I seriously spent 4 hours worrying that my best friend of 12+ years hated me for a simple example of normal friend banter, and was thinking of ways to cut off contact with everyone I know and run away to another country and/or planet
Is it called anxiety when you make a comment to a friend, and they send “that’s mean” and you spend the rest of the day freaking out and wondering if it’s possible to cut ties to the universe and run away because you think you’ve ruined a friendship you’ve had for over twelve years with one single comment that wasn’t actually bad??
Only for them to send you a sausage party gif and continue the conversation from 4 hours ago and there’s nothing wrong and why would there be coz you know them and they’re your friend and they’re a sarcastic jerk anyways and you spent 4 hours legitimately trying to figure out how to physically disappear from the universe or maybe run away to Antarctica without anyone noticing and cursing your stupid brain like an idiot for wasting a good chunk of the day??
