Great catchup today with the Shore Branch #nzgreens crew as we head into candidate selection meetings next week.

If you’re a Green Party member and live in the Northcote, North Shore, East Coast Bays, Upper Harbour, or Whangaparāoa electorates, head to the Members site and register for the meeting next Sunday the 22nd of March.

Not quite at a minute of handstand time. And it was much more a kick into handstand than a float. But I’ll take it

Kia ora, Pixelfed.

It's great to be here. I've been on Mastodon for a bit and this is the next step in moving away from Meta.

I've lived and worked around the world and the internet has enabled me to stay in touch with friends at home and abroad. In recent years though social media has been less about staying in touch with people and enabling human connection and more about manufacturing outrage to sell more consumer products.

Time to move on to platforms that have connection and communication at their core. Platforms that serve us, not oligarchs.

A bit about me: I'm based in Tāmaki Makaurau / #auckland, #newzealand. My day job is as a software engineer in a start up (which also means its my night job, and my weekend job at the moment).

Interested in #degrowth #regenerativeagriculture #decolinization #politics (especially #nzpol / #nzpolitics)

With software I'm interested in #decentralization and #federation. Keen on exploring more #selfhosting but lack the time to do more of it at the moment.
