EDITORIAL

EDITOR’S LOOK STOLEN BY DESIGNER

On a sunny Tuesday afternoon, I was forced into Bella’s edgy eyeliner, towering platform boots, burgundy lipstick, and Wednesday Addams corset and dress. I felt like a new person. But not in a good way. I felt emo. The overwhelming black attire made me depressed. I yearned for my own soft, understated, hot clothes. But... Bella had stolen them.

Bella had taken my favourite denim skirt, crisp white T-shirt, handmade frilly socks, and Mary Jane Doc Martens. But worst of all, Bella had taken my hot librarian glasses. Bella had stolen not only my clothes but my ability to see. How could I get my look back? I was stuck tripping over in too big boots, aimlessly throwing my hands at nothing. All Bella had to say was, “I look hot in your glasses.”

I shouted out into oblivion, “Yeah, well so do I, and I’d like them back!” All I heard was quick footsteps and a blur of red hair going far into the distance as I came to the sad conclusion that accepting my new goth aesthetic and partial blindness was the only solution.

—Love, Sammy.

THEFTS IN ALBANY MĀORI ROOM LEAVE STUDENTS “WARY”

WORDS BY YESENIA PINEDA A SHE/THEY

First fizzy drinks, then a vacuum, and now a speaker has been stolen from Albany’s Māori room, Te Rau Tauawhi.

It’s suspected that high school students are the ones behind the thefts, however, the perpetrators are yet to be caught.

There is only one security guard patrolling the Albany campus, a significant decrease from the multiple guards last year.

The string of thefts since O-Week had left Māori students nervous in their own space.

Student Mikaera Matengā said, “When someone comes in, I’m wary of them where it’s meant to be an inclusive space.”

Student Caleb Monk said, “We don’t wanna leave our stuff out on the tables if no one is around because we’re scared someone is gonna steal it.”

Staff members were looking into ways to safeguard the room, such as locks, while also continuing to make an inclusive and welcoming space for students. This is especially hard when kai and korero are shared with students in the space.

As students frequent Te Rau Tauawhi to decompress after a long day of studying, the string of thefts has left a distasteful taste in the mouths of staff and students.

ORGIES CUM TO MASSEY

WORDS BY ELIZABETH MOISSON A SHE/HER

Students in Palmy aren’t just grinding their study lately as the Massey Confessions Facebook shares news of students having late night group sex.

A third-year finance student, who wished to be anonymous, told Massive that they had been to a couple of orgies this semester.

The confessions said third year students on places like Ada, Ranfurly, and Marne Street are turning study sessions into orgies, and want more boys to join in.

The student said everyone should try it at least once before they graduate.

They found it was a great way to meet your best friends and perhaps even a new partner.

One student, who was open to the idea of group sex, knew someone who had participated.

“I do know someone who has been in one recently. It is insane to know that it happens a lot more than people think.”

However, other students were sceptical that the orgy confessions were lies.

A nursing student thought it was all fake as “the way these confessions are written seem to be a bit extreme.”

She even condemned the orgies, saying it increases the risk of STI’s.

A Manawatū RA was not aware of any orgies happening in the halls.

However, they were happy to support students by providing condoms, and felt that referring them to student counselling was a good option if needed.

Massey students in Wellington and Albany were jealous of the orgies, wanting the fun to come their way.

The Massey Confessions page owner told Massive, “I tried counting how many confessions I got about orgies and about ten so far have been posted, there is about five to ten confessions in my backlog as well! So, expect more posts about it!”

As the influx of orgy confessions grew and some people got sick of them, the page owner had to make a thread post instead.

“These confessions usually talk about wanting to join these orgies, their first-hand experiences or saying someone they know are in it.”

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT ALLEGEDLY LIED TO BY MASSEY UNIVERSITY STUDENT RECRUITER

WORDS BY SAMMY CARTER A SHE/HER

Ahigh school student claims a student recruiter told them there has been “no major layoffs” at Massey University.

Since 2023, the university has cut over 280 staff members, the single largest layoff in New Zealand university history.

A student visited a Massey presentation at their high school two weeks ago and asked the recruiter, Tania Jahnke, “What would happen if one of my lecturers was fired?”

The student said the recruiter looked like a “deer in the headlights” when asked this.

The recruiter said the university had been going through a small restructuring with no major layoffs, and that a lecturer being let go wouldn’t happen to any of the active courses, the student claimed.

“I thought she would acknowledge the cuts when I asked the question, rather than try and downplay it.”

The student said the response felt “insincere”.

“It felt like that’s what she’s been told to say.”

Despite suspicion that there will be further job cuts this year, the student said they were told all layoffs had already happened.

In the presentation to around 100 high school students, the source claimed there was no mention of job or course cuts at Massey.

They felt this, along with the answer to their question, was misleading for potential students.

The presentation reportedly told high school students that Massey's staff numbers were “actively growing”.

A Massey University spokesperson said, “The university is aiming to increase student enrolment numbers to be more in line with pre-COVID-19 levels.”

The spokesperson said Massey had already surpassed its current annual enrolment targets for new students by 6.5%.

This was made up of an increase of 3.8% for new domestic students, and 24.3% for new international students.

The spokesperson said staff reductions last year were not the result of a “single major restructure” but were the result of organisational change processes, such as college specific change proposals.

The university had approximately 4,318 staff members employed on permanent, fixed term and casual contracts. They said staffing numbers fluctuate throughout the year due to student-facing and semester-based staffing requirements.

FISHY EMAILS SLIP INTO STUDENTS’ INBOXES

WORDS BY CAITLIN BINGHAM A SHE/HER

Massey attempts to secure students‘ accounts as suspicious emails make the rounds.

The university was forced to reset all students’ account passwords in November after a phishing email, that appeared to be from the NHS, redirected students to a fake website and requested their login details.

The scare had a lasting effect when last month a real survey sent to distance students had them sure they were being scammed again.

The email promised entry into a £500 GBP prize draw in exchange for taking a 5-10 minute questionnaire about their studying experience.

Students thought this was too good to be true, with a discussion sparked on the Massey@Distance Facebook page.

One student commented, “most likely a scam, especially when they are showing you the conversion of GBP to NZD. This seems unnecessary considering we are a NZ University.”

Students suggested Massey shouldn’t use foreign currency in future emails.

While Massey had tried to stop spam emails and provided tools for spotting them, distance students continue to be heavily at risk.

Distance students don’t have the luxury of quickly asking a teacher about an email while in class, as video lectures are often tight on time.

Massey’s website recommended that students keep passwords private and never respond to email requests for your password, even if the email appears to come from the university.

WORDS BY AIDEN WILSON A THEY/THEM

Back in the late 80s to early 90s, there was a period where people seemingly decided to say, “fuck it.” Whilst pushing back against what was considered ‘normal’ had been going on since we left the primordial soup and gained legs, the pushing seemed to get stronger.

And so, the male crop-top emerged. A piece of fabric strewn across the wearer’s front, with that most scared area between top of the pelvis and bottom of the chest being left revealed. But the male crop-top has since been banished under fragile masculinity and Calvin Klein singlets. It’s been shunned for its midriff empowerment and sexual passion.

Male crop-tops originally began as a 'by men, for men' trend back in the 70s, with weightlifters cropping their thangs as way of getting around gym rules about being shirtless. Name brands like Nike would eventually jump on and produce their own shirts. In a way, the trend was a product of the hyper-masculine gym-bro culture of the time.

But the male crop-top evolved to be a sexy staple for men, straight and queer, over the next two decades.

An event historians call The Yassification of Aiden, we saw a very closeted writer from Palmy (it’s me... I was the very closeted writer from Palmy) watching the 1984 Nightmare on Elm Street. A young Johnny Depp strutted about in a cropped football jersey. While Mr Depp is incredibly controversial now, him wearing

a crop-top isn’t. Johnny’s football jersey with full belly on display made me yearn for a world where I felt comfortable strutting that shit in such style.

Many years later, during a second event called The Yassening 2: Crop-Top Boogaloo, I watched what would become my favourite film, Trainspotting, for the first time. The film came out in 1996 with Mark Renton sporting a tight yellow crop-top with a picture of a woman lying on the beach on it. The way Mark acted out retrieving drugs from a toilet was disgusting, but the way he wore a crop-top while he did it was not.

But today, no matter where I go, I cannot find a male crop-top to wear anywhere... particularly not in Palmy.

In recent years it seems like male crop-tops have been viewed as an exclusively queer community piece of clothing — a ridiculous view considering their origin. While it is rarer to see them today, they’re itching to make a comeback.

The male crop-top had its last resurgence in 2014 when Kid Cudi wore a red one on stage. The next year Zac Efron was spotted in a black crop-top with fringe (a bold choice) for the Bad Grandpa film.

10 years on from the last time male crop-tops were trending, it’s time to bring them back. And I know just the person who can make it happen... Michael B Jordan. His publicist needs to get him out of those tuxes and into a male crop-top stat. Society would go crazy, and Male Crop-TopGate 2024 would be no more!

Frozen Feathers in Plastic Bags Woven into a KOROWAI

I was eleven years old when my sister and I found a kingfisher lying dead on the road.

We couldn't have been more than fifty meters from home when we found it. Eyes closed, body in perfect condition. No sign of illness or injury, every feather was in place and accounted for.

You can imagine how an eleven-year-old and her thirteen-year-old sister might feel sad for a moment. So for a few seconds we stood in silence for the bird that was still warm from life. Then my sister turned to me and said:

“Pick it up, we can give it to Dad to put in the freezer with the others.”

My dad had been collecting birds for years at that point. He started before I was born and only just finished collecting feathers by the plastic bag-full sometime last year. In between those years, he amassed a wide range of colors and species to boast. Kererū, Weka, Kingfisher, Ruru, Tui — all nested together in a frozen huddle for years on end before they were finally put to use.

My dad had been collecting the birds that passed naturally in our bush back home because one of his dear friends, Whaea Aroha, had spoken about making a Korowai when the time was right. She proposed the idea when her moko was still in kindergarten, thinking ahead to a future in which her granddaughter would need something to wear when she graduated from university. And while not all Korowai are made with feathers in mind, Whaea wanted the mana of the different birds of our forests to carry her moko through every step of her graduation walk.

The labor of crafting a Korowai is long and arduous, even more so depending on how traditional one wants to be in their endeavor. The time spent on a single cloak can range anywhere between four weeks to a full year. Made from harakeke that has been gathered and handpressed into muka, adorned with hukahuka that cascade down the Korowai itself — every step of the process is done with care and precision. In Whaea Aroha’s case, it was also done with love, with the hope that when her moko wore it she would feel powerful and beautiful.

After months of weaving the birds of my childhood together to form something entirely new, the Korowai laid finished in her arms. Once it was complete and whole, it was given a name. This is the final step taken when weaving a Korowai. For if something is made with dozens of different creatures and will be present for hundreds of life-changing moments, is it not a living being, too? Is it not deserving of a name that is all its own?

The Korowai was completed last year, and the feathers that decorated it shone in the light as Whaea Aroha's moko walked across the stage to receive her nursing degree at Massey. With a pounamu around her neck and the cloak draped atop her shoulders, Whaea Aroha was proud to watch her granddaughter wear her legacy with prestige.

Last month, that same Korowai was laid across Whaea Aroha’s coffin at her tangi. Since then, it has been safely stored in her family’s marae, where it will lie in wait until it is time to honor someone else in the family.

Some people might regard the entire occasion as seeming too morbid. When I told others about my dad’s freezer full of dead birds as a kid, I was met with looks of mild horror. Classmates that came over to hangout would lift its lid expecting ice blocks and instead were met with the cold gaze of dozens and dozens of forest birds.

These days I’m lucky to get a tight-lipped smile and awkward silence when I talk about the Korowai I plan on wearing at my graduation and how it has adorned the coffins of many of my relatives. I understand their reservations, how the mortality of it all can seem to be a bit too much for comfort. But I also understand the hours of work that has gone into collecting and crafting my whanau Korowai, the love and care that each fiber has been stranded with.

I know that when I give my lecturer a firm handshake and accept the piece of paper that marks the end of my studies, I will look incredible in my floor-length dress and my whanau Korowai. But more importantly than how I will look, I will have generations of whakapapa and at least one kingfisher right there with me to hold my head up high.

WORDS BY JESSIE DAVIDSON A SHE/HER

COME AND TAKE A PEEK INSIDE THE HOUSE OF

Here, a giant frolics between city buildings and landmarks with their arms outstretched and floating through the air. Beneath them, a greenskinned cat lover is making conversation with a hairy creature smoking a blunt. A juggling, unicycling trickster whizzes past them sporting chequered pants and an orange jester hat. They nearly knock over two long-nosed friends playing a game of chess on bikes.

This world full of fantastical, humorous self-expression makes up a clothing brand named Trobe.

Massey University Design student, Georgia Andersen is the creator of Trobe. The brand sells hoodies, shirts, beanies and prints all with unique illustrations. Georgia began the business at her home in Napier during her first year of high school. At age 14, she was struggling to understand who she was and how to express that through clothing.

“I thought I may as well try and make my own clothes. At the time I didn’t have any experience with drawing or anything. But I thought I would just freely draw and see what happens without expecting anything to come from it.”

The first illustration Georgia brought to life on paper was a little man with a surfboard on his head, and then a fish smoking a cigarette. After embroidering these characters on a shirt, Georgia found the experience had awakened something within herself.

“I felt really connected and felt a lot more like myself. It awakened something in me and I wanted to share that experience with other people.”

The word Trobe came to Georgia after misreading a quote due to her dyslexia. “I thought the end of it said ‘Trobe’ and I thought that sounded pretty cool. Turns out it actually said ‘To be’”. Despite this reading error, Trobe really resonated with Georgia, saying the name spoke to her and her vision.

Like the name of the brand, the characters Georgia creates for her clothing and prints are “a little bit different and a little bit goofy”. Trobe’s characters aren’t perfect or pretty, but that’s what makes them interesting. Their raw and rough appearances force people to think and use their imaginations. For Georgia, this is a way to explore the comfort of being different and acknowledging imperfections.

“Imperfections have more story and character”.

In 2022, Georgia reached out to the music festival Soundsplash, asking if they had any spaces available where she could sell her clothing and prints. This opportunity made everything feel very real for Georgia.

“Meeting different people and clothing companies at the festival was pretty insane, that felt like it was more serious as well.” Trobe now has a stall at the festival every year.

For Georgia, Trobe is her visual journal. It gives a preview into her world and imagination. When she first showed her world for everyone to see way back in 2018, she found the experience daunting because of how personal and exposing it was. But now, she welcomes the idea of allowing people to follow her journey of finding herself. In return, she hopes that others will be able to find and connect with themselves as well.

Trobe is a breath of fresh air in fashion, where people can celebrate being completely themselves. Whether they are a hairy creature smoking a blunt, a green-skinned cat lover, or a unicycling jester, Trobe won’t judge.

REVIEW

HERITAGE HOUSES OR A WASTE OF SPACE?

Pōneke is full of abandoned, graffiti-ridden, derelict heritage buildings. I knew this going into Massey grad, Nate Oakley’s documentary premiere last month. But I didn’t imagine that I’d walk out feeling so passionate about the issue.

20-minute documentary Under the Surface explores issues stemming from heritage buildings, their link to the housing crisis, and whether they have a place in modern Wellington society.

Within the first five minutes of the film, I saw multiple shots of familiar-looking abandoned buildings that I walk past every day. From the abandoned boys' home on Tasman Street, to the Ghuznee building burnt down in flames next to Customs Café.

Shots of buildings with beautiful facades and embellished designs, reminiscent of an era long past, decaying and rotting, are paired with conflicting opinions on the role of heritage buildings in Wellington. Familiar voices such as MP Tamatha Paul and councillor Geordie Rogers, champion the idea that, “our city is not a museum”, that we need to prioritise housing and affordability for Wellingtonians over the preservation of historical buildings.

The opposing perspective argues that heritage buildings act as a tangible link to our past. That they create a sense of identity, belonging and pride in our communities. That’s one thing I love about Wellington, walking around and seeing a fusion of art-deco, vintage and modern buildings.

A gritty, emotional and grave acoustic soundtrack along with cohesive shots and sequences make the film feel seamless. Although, as expected from a recent grad film, some shots of the buildings look shaky, taking away from the beauty of Wellington’s distinctive architecture.

One of the important questions that comes into play is, whose heritage are we protecting? One of the interviewees, lawyer Laura Drew, asks, “Why preserve colonial heritage when people are homeless? And why not return those houses to mana whenua?”

The winning aspect of this doco comes from the talent and voices chosen, Tamatha Paul and Laura Drew speak with such passion that it can be hard to sympathise with the perspective of pro-heritage buildings.

The twenty minutes fly by the more that is revealed about Pōneke’s heritage buildings. My eyebrows raise at the surprising fact that an accessibility ramp was unable to be implemented in the train station since it was considered a heritage staircase. And that the Wellington Library was awarded the highest possible heritage protection for its significance to post-modern architecture despite being built only thirty years ago.

This doco, which can be found on YouTube, is a mustwatch for students feeling the full brunt of the housing crisis, to decide where we stand and what we demand.

Is it important to preserve our history? Whose history? And is our past fit for our future?

Last year, I had a bit of an addiction to AliExpress. I would buy all sorts on there. One time my friend mentioned she got a vibrator off it. I decided to get one as a piss-take but it ended up being the best decision ever. I used it every night for months and only stopped when I got a boyfriend.

One day he found it in my drawer and wanted to use it during sex. We got more and more kinky with it. But as time went on, the vibrator started to get really hot and stopped working. We thought nothing of it.

One time we were using it for a number of hours and at one point it was in his ass. He said he felt it heating up in there, but he liked it.

Then it made this really high-pitched sound and he got this weird look on his face I had never seen. There was a loud bang and he passed out.

Turns out the vibrator exploded in his ass. I had to call an ambulance and he ended up having major damage to his anal cavity and had to go through emergency surgery to get it out of his ass.

I broke up with him a week later (told him it was unrelated). I just couldn't see him the same after that. Safe to say I’ll only be buying sex toys from Peaches and Cream from now on.

Q. HEY FERGALICIOUS!

MY FLATMATE HAD A SEX DREAM ABOUT ME AND I'M NOT INTERESTED. NOW THINGS ARE WEIRD. WHAT DO I DO? A.

perfect time to play out that flatmate sex fantasy we all have. I once had a dream that I rammed my paddockmate up against the wall of the shearer's quarters. I pounded her against the corrugated iron until she came so hard the shearer came out and watched. I told my paddockmate about the dream, and we quickly made it a reality.

It is so convenient to be fucking your flatmate. There has never been a more convenient fuck buddy. They are right there for whenever you wanna root. You get that woody in the morning? Knock on the bedroom next to you and see if they are horny. If they are anything like me, they’ll always be.

If you really aren’t interested, there is only one solution — tell them you have a STI. This is a great way to avoid the awkward conversation of rejecting them. Those sex dreams will quickly turn to nightmares when they hear about your itchy undies. STI’s are no joke, so they’ll have no choice but to quickly run the other way. They might even move out, which will be the perfect chance for you to choose a new, hot flatmate to have sex dreams about you... ones that you’ll wanna make come true.
