Really enjoying watching the Jacinda Ardern press tour and seeing the bots and cookers rant and rave. Meanwhile she's at wrapping up at Harvard, speaking with Oprah and Colbert, and is just getting on with it. It's really nice to see a friendly, compassionate face thriving.

As much as it's important, I would like to know a lot less about the United States' politicians and the goings on.

I'm looking at rentals back in Auckland and man the market is fucked. This listing asks me to pay more for a 1 bedroom that's significantly worse than my current brand new condo in Toronto. Where my property developers at? Let's get supplying that market

Toronto's Open Doors is this weekend. I visited the Toronto Dominion Centre's 54th floor, the old exec floor. I think this was the first tall af building in Toronto and they've kept it fairly true to the original style. It was gorgeee. Designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.

Didn't think I would see the day where rugby was essentially a gay fetish sport (it probably always has been but now it's overt in my feed and it's confusing)

Andrew Little can disagree with Wellington City Council's Golden Mile project all he likes, but he's wrong in claiming there's something not "ethically correct" about the current council signing contracts for a project that they've consulted and voted on. localaotearoa.substack.com/p/andrew-lit...

Pretty incredible that Jeff Bezos' Amazon announced a "$5 billion-plus" partnership w/ a Saudi AI co launched by Mohammed Bin Salman and sent CEO Andy Jassy to meet with him less than 7 years after MBS murdered Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for Bezos' Washington Post. techcrunch.com/2025/05/13/a...

National giving an expert seminar in tone policing. It's not enough to cut the pay of women in NZ, but they've then got to police Andrea Vance for how she chooses to oppose that action. Then it continues with the outrageously long suspension for the leaders of Te Pāti Māori for doing a haka... Auē

Watched last night's political coverage on 1News and Three News. Maiki wins the day for colour, context, quality, and detail. Three did a better job at covering the house debacle.

Love this long read from @theverge.com on indigenous data sovereignty. DOGE cuts are a massive threat ofc though have clearly spurred action and give the movement more steam. It's imperative we as indigenous people should have katiakitanga or guardianship over our own information.

My Canadian IEC work permit has expired so I'm out of work rn while I wait for my PR application and the right opportunity to come along. Really want to stay in Canada but until I have a valid work permit, I'll need to get work from outside Canada.

Insane to frame this as an issue for property investors vs a welcome relief for renters in a cost of living crisis. This isn't an issue, this is what has been desperately needed for a decade. Let's build more density, increase housing ownership, and make renting more accessible.

Has every NZ news org fired their audio tecs? Because what the hell is going on with Stuff's 6pm double up when there are two people on set and WHAT is going on with Phil Goff's muffled mic on Sunday? We used to be a country!!! 😂😭

A day or so after a story of police arresting an 11yo child I think Tamatha's comments in full are fair. And if he really didn't have a choice to speak, then Chris Hipkins' position is also sensible for where Labour wants to position itself.

Not to be a wide-eyed naïf about such things but... am I right in thinking that they levelled an entire building to get to one guy and that is not controversial to anyone in the American media or political class, only that this information was recklessly shared in an unsecured chat?

Alright team, listen up! I’m on a mission, to get myself over to the Rugby World Cup and I need your help. I’m on the look out for work, both at the tournament and in the lead up to help finance the trip. Cheers for the shares and support. Can’t wait to see you all at the Rugby Word Cup!
