David Seymour seriously suggesting that the only reason anyone thinks Te Tiriti is a partnership between Māori and the Crown is because of lawyers who "see a contract." What a bellend

Where is the Prime Minister? (said with complete lack of surprise).

This is such an astounding talk by Torrey Peters - it has rocked the foundations of how I write & think about fiction. Highly recommend to any writers. Thanks to my friend & amazing writer Lena Trichy for insisting I listen to it with no distractions. https://t.co/JUs6FHA6bE
