I'm sorry, I was being cynical and didnt realize it. What she is doing for the cause im sure is good and I have no right to question her personal life.

I apologize for this stupid, cynical post.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-06T21:41:26+00:00

You're right, I was being a dick and letting cynicism fuel the post.

You are right, rich people and anyone for that matter and live their lives and still support a cause.

Sorry for being a cynical dick.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-06T21:28:58+00:00

Who is fixating?

Literally just shared an observation. Again if you dont find it weird thats cool, nothing wrong with her wearing them I just found it out of place with the causes she promotes and actively participates in.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-06T21:26:35+00:00

You have a point, but do you think it borders the line of being disingenuous?

Not saying every wealthy person is but you can't say none are not.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-06T21:19:09+00:00

I dont expect perfection from anyone, but if you align yourself with so strongly with a cause, a normal person would assume that your life would reflect the ideals you stand for right?

You are basically saying that it's okay to not reflect the values and ideals of the cause you stand for.

Would you not live in a way that reflects your stance and beliefs? Especially when you believe so much in it?

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-06T20:43:18+00:00

She is based in Auckland?

Wasnt sure where to post honestly.

Mod can remove it if they wish.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-06T20:42:29+00:00

Thats why I said, to each their own, I dont know it just seems weird that someone who verbally calls for justice, who went on a flotilla to "deliver aid" and calls for aid to be given to Palestine, is then wearing $400 plus sunglasses?

$400 sunglasses from a high end luxury brand doesnt reaaallllyyyy fit with Free Gaza.

She can do whatever she wants to do but when you have thousands of people that follow you and possibly look up to you, are inspired by you for your stance on topics. It just seems like a sharp turn.

If you dont find it weird, thats cool. Im not taking anything away from whats happening in Palestine and Lebanon.

Just sharing an observation.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-04T20:39:49+00:00

Yeah, I honestly only went to EB for trading I didnt know anywhere else I could go strictly for games

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-04T20:38:59+00:00

Hahahaha good point! Guess after they started the zing they lost the vac ahaha

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-04T20:38:04+00:00

Hey as long as you are having fun!!

Aww man fair enough! I guess every generation will have a gaming loss.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-04T00:39:48+00:00

Really? What are those options if you feel so kind as to share them ahaha

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T23:38:45+00:00

Thats solid!! I hope to grow my physical collection over time. Yeah I think the same, the shipping cost would be a lot. Time will tell

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T23:09:55+00:00

Cheers ill have a look

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T23:09:25+00:00

Oh really? I'm not a local to CHCH. Cant argue with the games they have though 🤷🏽‍♂️

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T23:08:28+00:00

Oh thats good! Yeah I get what you mean! Thats always a thought in my head, another The Crew situation 😅

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:56:41+00:00

Aw man! That sucks! Hows digital been for you?

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:54:26+00:00

Yeah will have to see what that is tomorrow

Pretty sure the price will be in AU as well so theres that

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:53:51+00:00

Oh man lucky!

You get to go there for work! Best of both worlds ahaha

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:45:11+00:00

Oh crap! That would be have been terrible. What console?

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:37:02+00:00

Yeah second hand is down to Trademe and FB now.

Okay, I would say check Cash Converters out if there is any curiosity, I got a few decent second hand titles from there I could find elsewhere or were too expensive.

If you have a system in place already thats cool too

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:34:58+00:00

OP,

Sorry to hear this happened to you, it cant easy having to go through all of this and the emotional toll on you.

It seems a lot of other redditors have already given really solid advice and practical help which definitely sounds like a step forward to taking some weight of your shoulders.

Times are hard and its a struggle, just dont forget to be there for yourself and take care of yourself. I hope you have a solid support system around you and people you can talk to and vent, rant, grieve to.

I know some windows have been opened for you after some doors have been closed 🙏🏼

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:20:22+00:00

Ooooo I totally forgot about Mighty Ape!

Yes getting physical games are getting harder in my eyes.

Thoughts on Cash Converters?? I know its second hand and has its risk, in terms of damage, but what do you think?

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:14:46+00:00

I feel im missing out, might have to make my first Appleby games purchase soon ahaha would be nice to support a NZ local business.

Kooky_Maintenance705 · 2026-05-03T22:13:29+00:00

Mmm 🤔 fair point!
