#New Zealand too

It’s so funny to me that Tara can basically end up as your shitty mother in law

#bg3 spoilers #bg3 epilogue #bg3 #tara the tressym #gale dekarios #art #comic #my tav #fun fact this was basically my mum and my nan dbncdnxjjxjx #nan once gave mum this horrible sequinned scarf for Christmas #and mum hated it so much she snuck it back into her luggage the night before she left #and then when nan sent me my Christmas present the scarf was in there too #so mum carted the thing with her to New Zealand next time they visited and left it in the pillowcase #and then it of course showed up again next Christmas #most cordial interaction they had

I think Tumblr in general would appreciate the newest back-of-bus advertising campaign in Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand

#and it's an electric bus too #lesbians #Wellington #Aotearoa #lgbtq #new Zealand

cool fun fact for sunday

East Asia and South of South America are Antipodes meaning that they are in completely opposite points on the globe.

This means that when Acau joins we will have ccs in oppolise places playing together. People who physically could not be further away from each other.

The ones in buenos aires would be the furthest but i doubt Carre will play so I think cellbit or bagi are next. (idk where exactly they live but I'm pretty sure they come from the south of brazil)

Here is a map of the world showing antipodes. The areas in orange are perfectly opposite to each other.

#qsmp #hope when chinese speaking streamers get added we can get carre on as well so we have someone in Beijing and in Buenos Aires being together #they are both nearly opposite as well #alternativelly we could get someone in Peru and South East Asia #Or in Spain and New Zealand #Colombia/ venezuela and Indonesia too #ahh cant wait for more Asian CCs and mroe south american CCs #Taiwan and paraguay #Brazila dn the philipines but that part of brazil is fairly uninhabited (the coast has most people) #Chile and central china too

People.. we gotta normalize the Māori Sniper headcanon. It’s the best hc in the world

+ Māori Bill-Bel and Lar-Nah

#tf2 #team fortess 2 #tf2 Sniper #team fortress 2 sniper #Māori Sniper real! #he’s māori in my eyes #IK I’m the only one (next to my friend) who hcs him as Māori but still #indigenous Sniper is a great hc #also everyone in the tf2 universe who are from New Zealand are Māori too #photo edit #screenshot redraw #I am not Māori myself but I tried my best to do research into his design

Loki surveilling the skyline of New York from the top of Stark Tower and clocking that his favorite paired set of buildings are gone. sad

#everyone wants thor and loki to have visited earth a bunch of times and obviously they wouldn't be too invested in earth politics #but i think the concept of much time passing between visits should be taken advantage of #like what if one of them missed seeing the statue of liberty on their past 3 visits and now that's 'suddenly' a famous historic landmark #Loki like wow I sure hope that restaurant in the Soviet Union is still around! #and Natasha's head whips around so fast like you mean Russia or one of the surrounding countries that used to be part of the USSR #Loki: uhm. well. what's the difference #Natasha: here is a map of the countries does this help #Loki: it does not help but thank you for trying #Thor: what do you mean Rome is gone???? Rome was HUGE????? #Tony: well it's been a few centuries since then Europe is very different now #Thor: (visibly distressed) so the the sweet effeminate men enjoy the streets no more?? #Tony: ...I don't keep track of foreign border laws about that #Thor shows up after 3 years and there's a new president and he's very confused through the entire meeting #brodinsons being so detached from the political scene but being so used to realm politics they come to correct conclusions about things #even though the timeline and how long things stay the same on midgard still messes with them #Loki: at least Egypt is still around #Thor: China also #Brodinsons visiting New Zealand(Aotearoa)/Australia/various British mandate islands before the British formally showed up #returning 2 centuries later and 'the gene pool has altered drastically' 'must've been a war' #well it's either that or since Asgard seems spared of colorism they treat all humans as the same and don't notice. which might be worse #on the colonisation and liberation side of things

Live footage of me trying to figure out what is happening in Nona

thinking about Matt, Jack and Zea laughing about something and Al just has to wait for them to get ahold of themselves and explain yet another thing he missed.

thinking about Alfred not regretting the revolution, not regretting leaving. But he often regrets not being there.

#I rlly hope this makes sense #hws america #hws canada #hws australia #hws new zealand #Pacific siblings #Hetalia #they’re siblings you know they really are #But there’s too many inside jokes between Can Oz and Zea that Al will just never get #and he knows he couldn’t have had both but he wishes he could have sometimes

there is a book about fungi by a man name Merlin Sheldrake. Merlin. Sheldrake. not in a million years could i have come up with a better name for a fungi enthusiast myself. say it out loud—Merlin Sheldrake—and just try to tell me that’s not man who knows how to love a fungus. A+ no notes

#fungi #btw i love the way british ppl say fungi #like fung-ee #new zealanders do that too #and probably other accents do as well idk #but i love it #fungee #but i guess then you can’t do the ‘why are mushrooms great at parties’ joke #still #fungee!

It kills me how little self-preservation Carmen has, how much she disregards her personal safety. She decides not to see Gray again not because of the reasonable concerns Player mentions, but because she fears putting Gray in danger. Her safety does not come into play in the equation.

And, sure, her "occupation" is always dangerous but she's never trying that hard to stay safe. Whatever is necessary to get the job done.

#carmen sandiego #carmen sandiego 2019 #csweekly #and it's something we see several times throughout the show #off the top of my head theres especially during the new zealand caper in s2 - neals 'youll fry us both' as she did nearly kill both of them #she wouldn't call chief to rescue her in stockholm until it was nearly too late #and when she was with team red (still actively dying from the cold) she could only talk about her mission #she's messed up! she had such a weird upbringing and she can't start unpacking it until pretty late #and not to be all 'i could do better' but damn if i were writing this show i would've explore that more #all the ways carmen is fucked up from the way she was raised. #and how she slowly heals and learns who she is and who she /can/ be and how to form healthy bonds with people and- #you see what i mean #i would've had carmen learn from Zack and Ivy as much as they learn from her. #and open up and let herself be the young20something she's supposed to be

I know it's no longer New Zealand Comedy Month, but YouTube recommended an FotC video to me I'd never seen before, and I wanted to share it with you all.

So this was for Red Nose Day over a decade ago, and Bret and Jemaine (and Murray) make appearances in this excellent video about helping sick kids in New Zealand.

My favorite part, though, is this little girl bringing up The Muppets movie (which Bret wrote the songs for), and the boys having a hysterical exchange of words over Bret's work that won him an Academy award:

Girl: We can get money from selling oil, gold, and the crystals.

Bret: That's a very good idea.

Girl: I saw that in a movie I watched.

Jemaine: What movie was that?

Girl: The Muppets.

Jemaine: What did you think of that movie?

Bret: Some really good songs in it. [giggles]

Girl: Yeah!

Jemaine: Did you...did you like the songs? Or not really...kinda

Girl: Yeah. Miss Piggy just wears wigs all the TIME.

Bret: Yeah, but what about the songs?

Girl: Yeah, they were SO good.

Bret: Ah, yeah, ah.

Jemaine: Think so? I thought they were very derivative and like other...

Girl: Yeah?!

Jemaine: Yeah.

If you don't know why Jemaine thinks "Man or Muppet" is derivative, check out my post about their music and influences (including their impact on a young musical comedian named Bo Burnham!).

Enjoy , and keep it here for more international comedy fun! ✌🏼🐔
