March 25, 2023 - TERF piece of shit Posie Parker had to cut her transphobic event in Auckland, New Zealand, short after a huge crowd of locals decided to run her fascist ass out of town, and she was covered in tomato sauce.
She was so shaken by the event she ended her entire transphobic tour of Australia and New Zealand, which so far had mostly proven popular with literal neo-nazis, and fled the country entirely. Good job, Auckland! [video]/[video]

3 Sleeps Till Liftoff
It’s all go go go at the moment. Christmas gatherings, packing, planning, and mind racing! At the same time, I am stuck in bed as the days get closer to leaving. It’s like so much is going on in my brain that I can’t pull myself up for the weight. Even though it’s good stuff, my body keeps saying, “no, it’s way too much to sort out.” When I am this way, I feel like a deer in headlights. I have to…

When should you Repair the Asphalt Driveway?
Driveways are an important part of any property as it enhances the exterior view. An unsightly crack in your pavement can be infuriating, and it also causes many inconveniences when you are driving the vehicle. If there is an issue in the driveway, it doesn't imply that you must choose the replacement.
Professionals can help you by providing the best repair solutions to all the issues in your driveway. The paving experts will endeavour to eradicate the problems with repair services and advance to replacement only when the driveway repairs still need to be resolved. 
Property owners may sometimes try DIY solutions, which experts do not suggest. Initially, it might seem like you are saving costs, but they may arise again if the root cause still needs to be addressed. Therefore, you can connect with the paving professionals to handle the driveway repairs Auckland as they have years of experience.
A concrete driveway lasts up to thirty years, whereas asphalt pavement has a lifespan of two decades with regular upkeeps. However, the problems are common in every driveway, which can become a major catastrophe if ignored.
It is all about repairing asphalt paving with the assistance of top paving professionals in Auckland. Several signs nudge a property owner to call paving specialists. The below lists elucidate some of the significant signs you shouldn't ignore.
Cracks on the surface
If you see any cracks on the surface, it's time to call an expert for a quick fix. If the cracks are trivial, the repair specialists will use fillers and resolve the driveway repairs Auckland in no time. 
Major cracks are the signs that elucidate the deeper problem in your asphalt driveway. In such cases, the paving specialists will scrutinize the whole surface and check for the underlying reason. Also, they will perform the right technique to get rid of the problems effortlessly.
Potholes
A tiny pothole can slowly deteriorate the whole driveway in the long run, making it difficult to drive your vehicle. If there is a pothole in the road surface, it accumulates rain and water, which causes problems with the driveway. When water seeps into the foundation of the road surface softens, and cracks will be visible in the long run. 
Moreover, several damages in the asphalt driveway can be noticed by the property owners. You will need professional assistance to repair the problems, and unresolvable problems call in for asphalt replacement. Patching potholes in the initial stages can prevent driveway deterioration and costly repairs. Moreover, your vehicles will also be safe.
Stains
The driveway will start fading over time, and stains eventually become a part of the road surface. Due to sunlight exposure and frequent driveway usage, the road surfaces lose their color and look old. Moreover, these kinds of surfaces fall prey to cracks and issues easily. When it comes to stains, spilling chemicals, industrial solvents and automotive fluids can sink into the pavement and cause unresolvable driveway repairs.
It deteriorates the driveway's look, which necessitates the individuals to call in professional assistance. The driveway's aesthetic appeal can be enhanced by sealcoating, and also, you can prevent stains that may occur in the future. Experts in the industry advise property owners to incorporate sealcoating as a part of routine maintenance annually.
Drainage problems
The existing moisture in your driveway is a major threat to healthy pavements and can affect the binding agents easily.

Born in London, acclaimed singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and frontman of The Veils, Finn Andrews spent his teenaged years attending high school in Auckland.

Ok so why did Gerard wear the same costume for 6 shows???
Like a lot of people, I noticed the Aotearoa (NZ) & Australia tour drum head messages seemed to be about 9/11. The costume also tells a very specific story that lines up with this--and there was more to Melbourne Night 2 than Gerard deciding it was casual Friday. I'm gonna go through my personal interpretation and explain why I think MCR did this at the end of their tour. 
TLDR: This Is Not The End.
I will include image credits in the reblog since there are a lot!
AUCKLAND, March 11 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Based on the skirt suit and drumhead ‘FIX FAX FUCK YOU’, Gerard is dressed as an office worker. For simplicity I will refer to the costume as the Secretary, I see it as both a character and a metaphor. Auckland establishes the monotony and repetition of daily life prior to 9/11, ‘FIX FAX FUCK YOU’ showing an attitude of boredom unaware of the events to come. 
BRISBANE 1, March 13 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The main difference between Auckland and Brisbane 1 is the briefcase. This indicates the point in time--Auckland is the days before 9/11 and Brisbane 1 is the morning before the attacks begin. The secretary travels to work, thinking ‘Everything under Control’.
BRISBANE 2, March 14 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The drumhead message ‘Here Comes the AIRPLANE’ marks this as minutes or even seconds before the towers are hit. Brisbane 2 is the first time Gerard wears the coat, representing everyone taking cover. 
MELBOURNE 1, March 16 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I unfortunately could not find a good photo of Gerard wearing the coat from this show but you can see it on the floor behind him!
The Melbourne shows are as the towers collapse. Pretty straightforward from the Melbourne 1 drumhead ‘TERROR’. This show also had the only appearance of the umbrella, which I interpret as representing the rubble and destruction raining down. The umbrella is closed, showing the secretary is unprotected and ultimately killed when the towers fall. 
MELBOURNE 2, March 17 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It seemed odd at first that Melb 2 was the only show that Gerard didn’t wear a costume for, but I actually believe he still did. This is the key to my interpretation: Gerard is dressed as himself witnessing the towers collapse, on his way to work at Cartoon Network. This the only show on the Oceania leg where they played Skylines and Turnstiles*, the song Gerard wrote immediately after 9/11. The drumhead ‘BARK BARK BARK’ makes you picture, a chained dog, representing the powerless horror of only being able to watch as the destruction unfolds--the deeply personal experience that drove Gerard to form MCR. 
SYDNEY 1, March 19 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Blood!!!! At Sydney 1, we see the continuing aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. The secretary has died but keeps moving, picking up her briefcase and carrying on. This could be showing how a lot of people’s faith in the US government and in the world died, but life had to find a way to move on. 
SYDNEY 2, March 20 2023
Tumblr media Tumblr media
At Sydney 2, the addition of Gerard’s white contacts shows the Secretary decaying--but she has not stopped. Frank changed the drumhead message from ‘UNKILLABLE’ to ‘UNKILLABLES’, expanding the meaning from the context of his accident in Sydney to include the band, the fans, and on a wider level everything MCR represents. 
I think all of this is a metaphor for the band’s career in multiple ways. Firstly, the Secretary being undead of course reflects MCR’s return, and her zombified appearance aligns with the imagery of their new era (decay, swarm, the destroyed buildings of the stage set). Secondly, it is very interesting to me that they did this sequence of costumes and drumheads at the end of their headlining tour, rather that at the start. The story they told seems to imply a rebirth--MCR was ‘born’ out of the trauma, pain and confusion of 9/11, so the fact that they represented the start of the band on stage signifies a second beginning. 
(Thank you for reading to the end and if I got anything wrong please let me know!)
*EDIT 1 (23/03/23): They actually also played Skylines at Brisbane 2. I do think the position of Skylines in the Melb 2 set is still significant. They played it as the first encore song which mirrors it being the first MCR song and written shortly after 9/11.
EDIT 2 (30/03/23): So actually 8 shows of Secretary Gerard when you include Japan! Tokyo and Osaka analysis here

10 sleeps and counting, again!
Ten days and counting. Auckland bound; we are going from Florida winter (summer breezes) to Auckland summer (winter chilled rain). Packing our bags, house sitters, and dog sitters, trying to find luggage, passports, visas, comfort food from the US for the girls, and Christmas gifts. I say our presence is their presents. I mean, come on. In every phone conversation, I have to drop, “xx days until…
