Kahawai

Posting fish everyday until I get a girlfriend

Day 29

[fiftyfly]

Fortunate enough to get a second summer again this year! Thanks to N, J and K for the hospitality and fun! They helped me get out fishing in the most beautiful spots and even catch a few fish along the way including my first kahawai. Hope to see them out there again soon!

can jack hit the griddy

He brought that shit to Octopia

Sally sees him do it and just stares dumbfounded at him

[apollos-olives]

as a pacific islander taika waititi is so fucking embarrassing he's like our lin manuel miranda. so much of the genocide in palestine reminds me of america's nuclear testing in the pacific & military occupation of hawaiʻi (and that's just the start of the comparisons from palestine to the pacific) and it not only breaks my heart but makes me even more determined to fight for a free palestine. for him to say "why should I care about their issues when they don't know about mine" is fucking disgusting. I can't believe how self-centered he is, his indigenous identity is apparently only meaningful when it comes to movie deals. mai i ke kahawai, a i ke kai 🇵🇸🤝🌺

"he's like our lin manuel miranda" HELP 💀💀💀 LMAOOOO

and yeah you're so right. his ignorance is really on another level. i'm sorry he's one of the big pacific islander faces in the celebrity world. obviously he does not represent all of you. thank you for standing with palestine <3 inshallah we will all be free together

feesh

closeups, refs, n other stuff under the cut (//cw: mild nudity (female presenting nipples))

blue marlin dante. u know him, u love him, hes just a lil dude. fun fact abt marlin in general - when they get excited (ie on the hunt), they light up w bioluminescent cells!! im not suuuper sure on the science of it (im a historian, not a marine biologist), but i think its super neat. anyway, when dante (and the rest of his family) get emotional (excited/upset/angry), they light up too!! dante lights up blue - this is what the blue stripes on his skin are.

where dante is based on a blue marlin, gene is based on a black marlin! they're a lot bigger than blue marlin, and i thought it was fitting given that he's older and stronger (thanks shadow knightism) than dante. additionally, he lights up red instead of blue/grey - he used to light up in a similar colour to dante, but after he got shadow knight'd, his bioluminescence changed to red. its real fucking creepy when hes in combat n he lights up all blood red n scary, esp in the dark. rahh.

and finally, the lovely @xyxofspades's fish donna!! i based her design on a kahawai (i think theyre called like. sea trout or australian salmon outside of aotearoa?? idk. theyre kahawai to me n always will be). theyre pretty n turquoise n yeah the colour scheme fits donna so kahawai donna.

idk. feesh.

My poem, Nā Kahawai (The Rivers) of my Great Grandmother, Maude, in Issue 05 of Paperbark Magazine (from UMass Amherst)

[fiction-quotes]

In the old days, in the years that have gone before us, the land and sea felt a great emptiness, a yearning. The mountains were like a stairway to heaven, and the lush green rainforest was a rippling cloak of many colors. The sky was iridescent, swirling with the patterns of wind and clouds; sometimes it reflected the prisms of rainbow or southern aurora. The sea was ever-changing, shimmering and seamless to the sky. This was the well at the bottom of the world, and when you looked into it you felt you could see to the end of forever.

This is not to say that the land and sea were without life, without vivacity. The tuatara, the ancient lizard with its third eye, was sentinel here, unblinking in the hot sun, watching and waiting to the east. The moa browsed in giant wingless herds across the southern island. Within the warm stomach of the rainforests, kiwi, weka, and the other birds foraged for huhu and similar succulent insects. The forests were loud with the clatter of tree bark, chatter of cicada, and murmur of fish-laden streams. Sometimes the forest grew suddenly quiet, and in wet bush could be heard the filigree of fairy laughter like a sparkling glissando.

The sea, too, teemed with fish, but they also seemed to be waiting. They swam in brilliant shoals, like rains of glittering dust, throughout the greenstone depths – hapuku, manga, kahawai, tamure, moki, and warehou – herded by shark or mango ururoa. Sometimes from far off a white shape would been seen flying through the sea, but it would only be the serene flight of the tarawhai, the stingray with the spike on its tail.

Waiting. Waiting for the seeding. Waiting for the gifting. Waiting for the blessing to come.

肥宅哈比人魔戒之旅-2023紐西蘭北島行（13）皇后街 Queen Street與維塔工作室（的紀念品店）

這一天的行程非常鬆散單純，主要是逛有名的皇后街與分頭買紀念品，然後去賭場一攫千金翻轉人生．

奧克蘭最繁華熱鬧的一條街，長約3公里，有需多的精品店，百貨公司，餐廳，酒店，還有奧克蘭知名地標天空塔與天空城賭場SKYCITY　casino．雖然是最熱鬧的一條街，但是逛起來很舒服，不會有擁擠的感覺，環境也非常的casual，有一點點流浪漢但還算安全．

　　奧克蘭的路上隨處可見電子支付的公共滑板車，這些公共滑板車看起來似乎如果你的餘額不足，就會把人瞬間傳送到一個空間關起來，繳完費用才能出去，所以常常在路上看到人突然憑空消失，只剩滑板車隨意停在路邊的奇景．路上騎腳踏車的人也不少

雖然皇后街是一條直直的平地，但是兩旁都是山坡，所以如果往兩旁逛時走得會有點累ＸＤ

Auckland Town Hall　一個巴洛克式建築的劇院，有很多不同大小的劇場在這裡，還有奧克蘭愛樂似乎也在這

The Civic　這也是一個歷史悠久的劇場表演場地，也兼放映電影，裡面的裝潢富有異國風情且奢華，十分具有藝術價值．　

　　這棟The Strand Arcade的商店應該是受了疫情的影響，外觀看起來雖然很漂亮，裡面是巴黎拱廊街的風格，但是裡面剩下一些理髮店，服飾店已經關得差不多了，沒關的也都在大特賣．疫情過後，紐西蘭的經濟也大受影響，尤其是精華地段，付不起租金關門的店也非常多．

　　午餐我們去了一間似乎蠻有名的餐廳叫做Depot Eatery，位在天空塔附近，如果坐在外面還能聽到有人高空彈跳的慘叫聲．他著名的是他的生蠔和燒烤類的餐點．但是我們快中午到的時候生蠔還沒送到，所以只好點了一些排餐，但是整體來說也蠻好吃的，每道菜都能感受到用心．

綜合燻肉小點拼盤，但是我們後來詳細看菜單才發現最後面一坨白色的是兔肉．

烤牛骨髓

烤得皮非常脆的豬腳

Skirt steak 牛排普通　沒有在Tongariro Lodge晚餐吃的那個好吃

這是有優格醬和一些香草沙拉的烤雞，好吃

這道好像是用油煎的一種叫kahawai的魚排，肉質很緊實，特別的是醬汁是椰奶加了一點薑，很有南洋風味．搭的烤馬鈴薯好吃．

　　然後我們又跑到隔壁姊妹店吃了甜點，這兩間店是連在一起的，應該是同一個老闆，連廁所都是共用的，只是一間算是正經的餐館，另一間是美澳式的咖啡小點(後來一查，這兩間店都是紐西蘭小有名氣的廚師Al Brown的店，他的餐飲事業版圖非常大Best Ugly Bagels　和GOOD JOE COFFEE也都是他的 )

　　吃飽後我們去逛了天空城商場裡的維塔工作室的ｓｈｏｐ，維塔工作室是一家位於紐西蘭威靈頓的特效化妝和模型道具製作公司，做了非常多奇幻科幻電影的特效化妝和道具設計，早已是業界翹楚，有名的包括《魔戒三部曲》，《哈比人意外旅程三部曲》，《銀翼殺手2049》，《雷神索爾3：諸神黃昏》，《成人世界》，《第九禁區》，《地獄怪客》，《攻殼機動隊》等等，雖然公司主要在威靈頓，但是奧克蘭這裡也有可以參觀的道具場景ｔｏｕｒ跟周邊商店，但是因為時間關係所以我們只有在外面的紀念品店逛了一下，不過也是非常夠瞧了，只不過這些模型做得雖然非常酷炫，但是價格感覺也是非常的盤，所以雖然逛得很開心，但也沒有買什麼東西．

＜哈比人：荒谷惡龍＞裡史茅革的頭，眼睛還會動

等身大史嘉蕾·喬韓森《攻殼機動隊》

超級貴的模型，會發光的孤山暗門

最後在神祕的黑塔裡浴血奮戰一整晚，輸得一屁股之後就回旅館休息了，賭場無法拍攝所以沒什麼照片，不過賭場都大同小異，就是有非常多的吃角子老虎機，和一些輪盤撲克之類的．

待續

Kahawai Wander-Faltstöcke, speziell zum Wandern konzipiert, zeichnen sich durch ihr geringes Gewicht, ihre geringe Größe, gute Kraftübertragung und extreme Steifigkeit aus. Die Verwendung von Wanderstöcken beim Laufen verringert die Ermüdung der Muskulatur in den Beinen, insbesondere bei langen Laufstrecken oder vielen Auf- und Abstiegen. Neben der Beschleunigung bergauf können Wanderstöcke auch die Trittsicherheit in unwegsamem Gelände erhöhen.

his indigenous identity is apparently only meaningful when it comes to movie deals. mai i ke kahawai, a i ke kai 🇵🇸🤝🌺

////

Just like his Jewish identity only matters when he can pull his Jew card!!!! According to him, he doesn’t identify with his Jewish roots at all unless he needs to “play the Jew card”. So yeah, outside of JoJo rabbit, he doesn’t really give af.

someone come kill this guy

Māori name: kahawai

Scientific names: Arripis trutta, Arripis xylabion

The kahawai species most people are familiar with (Arripis trutta) is found around the North Island, South Island, Kermadec and Chatham Islands. They mainly occur in coastal seas, harbours and estuaries, and enter brackish water in rivers.
