| Extroverts generally, no they don't annoy me. However the ones who accompany their speech with non-stop "talking hands - particularly exaggerated arm and hand gestures do annoy me, I don't understand why they do it and I can't stand interacting with them beyond a few seconds. |

| One thing I have noticed is that when people are feeling anxious - and interacting with NTs is a scenario for anxiety for us - our faces reflect it in that we can tend to completely forget to smile, not realising how this lack of positive facial expressions sends a negative, off-putting message whic... |

| Ardern has some remarkably different attributes from other political leaders in the world. She uses her power to empower others no matter what their political affiliations. She is a uniter, and despises the politics of division - to her, the ethos of "divide and rule" is anathema. When she... |

| Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern's Labour Party is well on the way to setting an all time record in the whole history of NZ elections. No party has ever done this well before, so early (about a third of the votes counted so far) and what is most remarkable is that many of "hard core" conserva... |

| Trump brags about what a "great job" he has done with Covid management. An astonishing claim. There are 500 people working in the Whitehouse and nearly 6 million in New Zealand; yet there are more infected people in the WH than the whole of New Zealand. Great job? Yeah right. Believe that ... |
