Hunter… dear Hunter. What the hell dude? I thought you and I had something going and then you came out and started spewing that nonsense. Who the hell are you to just throw around some bullshit racist shit like that and hope that no one was going to say anything? Because I honestly believe that Hana-Rawhiti was harsh enough with your ass.

 

If you’ve not seen the ReNews young voters debate, then this is all probably null. I won’t bore you with details, but it was just a massive pisstake–especially if you’ve got Erica Stanford there to speak for your youth. No shame to her, live your truth, but how out of touch can one person be?

 

We’re two weeks off the end of the semester and I’m feeling it. As are most of you, I can feel it. We’re seeing the ass end of assignments and WSU is hustling their AGM out. Which apparently hit the numbers they needed to make sure their annual plan was passed. And, thankfully, we’re back next year. Though I can’t be ignorant to the rumblings, loud mouth claims and criticisms for who Nexus is and what student media represents. Silencing the voices of a major outlet that speaks on student issues and fights for what’s right? Show your bias and power dynamic a bit more.

 

We’re back next year though, you’re welcome. But unlike the current political situation, we actually know what we want to be doing with this space and we can argue effectively for what we think is right. That’s why we’ve created our version of the State of The Union and what WE think needs to be done in honour of tauira and the rights that we deserve. You got some thoughts? Then scrawl them on a bit of paper and throw them through my office window. I also take smoke signals.

 

For the better part of 3 years I’ve been at the helm of this ship. I’ve dedicated my post-graduate years to making sure student culture was documented well and that everyone was represented the best way I knew how. Being a good cunt for you guys. I still have another week here, but I want to say that it’s been fucking mean so far bro. Nexus is going to move into a whole new world, and I saw the end of the old one. Get amongst it team.
