RNZ linking to Fox News is a dereliction of journalistic duty. As far as I'm concerned this means that RNZ is no longer a reliable source of information.

The USA about 3,800,000 Sq miles. 340,000,000 people. About 84 /sq mile but, of course, 8.5 mill in New York and about 6/sq mile in Wyoming. Tomorrow, pretty much no American will be more than 30 minutes drive from a No Kings protest. That's something.

On top of humanities and social sciences being cut from eligibility for the Marsden Fund, changes to 're-balance' the histories curriculum, attacks on the Waitangi Tribunal, etc, it seems clear the government would prefer we remain in ignorance about our history. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Luxon is wrong on farming and fossil gas here. When you look at the whole-of-life picture, greenhouse gas emissions from fossil gas is WORSE than coal. And NZ dairy is NOT "the most carbon-efficient in the world". #nzpol www.newstalkzb.co.nz/on-air/mike-...

There was a post on here a while back that went something like "I don't think people understand the depth of commitment the American armed forces have to their oath and honour. They simply won't bow to corrupt orders from 47". Turns out - bull fckn shit. #LA #ICEraids

Deep Blue is 30 years old and was capable of defeating chess grand champions. It could be housed in a single cabinet. ChatGPT spans untold data centers devouring massive amounts of electricity and it got its ass whipped by an 8 bit gaming console from the 1970s.

I have been at the head of an NGO waiting to find out about government contract renewal and it is a special form of hell. There is no reason at all to be incompetent and unprofessional about the process. It saves no money and serves no one's interests.

Stephen Rainbow's 6-month report card - he is the most useless public appointment in the history of Aotearoa. I will keep dragging him until he resigns or Duncan sacks him because he is a massive, massive fraud who does not meet the requirements of the HRA Act.

Bish on Mata with Mihi: performs his "heeey look, i'm a reasonable guy when it comes to Māori tings" routine. Bish at music awards last nite: triggered by Stan & #ToitūTeTiriti, is a petulant racist child (challenged by Don McG 👏). Goldsmith was also overheard saying racist bs by those around him. 💀

I don't think it's "making it personal" to call a minister making it harder for people in state housing "cold hearted" (or whatever the direct quote was) guarantee Ricardo would question the same thing no matter the person holding that responsibility. It's the CHOICES.

This “working for community organisations” is a joke. Forced labour is not the same as volunteering. You still need petrol, food, clothes to work at a community organisation. There are plenty of instances where people who are genuinely unable to work are forced to onto Jobseekers (see: Long Covid).
