Not surprising, but I've seen a noticably higher demand for this shirt in the last few weeks. It's on sale if you want one too or perhaps as some kind of holiday gift for a loved one 🎁 www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/1130...

Coming around to the view that a certain kind of narcissist simply needs Musk to be a genius rather than a fraud, because they want to believe there’s a hereditary Brahmin class of accomplished, beautiful minds—and that they’re a part of that class.

Scientists have reconstructed the insane weather of Tylos, a world so hot, and so close to its sun that the clouds are made of vaporised metal, and where it rains liquid sapphires and rubies. https://buff.ly/41a3GnB #ShareGoodNewsToo

Just a reminder that the neither the U.S. Digital Service (which has been converted into DOGE) nor OPM has any legal authority to direct every single federal government employee to give them a job summary. Literally no such authority at all.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Democrats are fundamentally misunderstanding the moment: We're not asking them to be legislators right now. We need them to be politicians. There's nothing to be done about the legislative situation. They're right about that. But there's PLENTY to be done as politicians.

One thing that I haven't seen calculated yet is just how expensive the current Governments cancellation of years worth of work, and reviews, and on the ground projects has actually been. Not the savings they claim, but how much had already been spent on being at the point it was before austerity.

No 'official record' of school lunch feedback. David Seymour says he's getting lots of feedback that kids love the lunches - but neither he, his office, the MOE, the School Lunch Collective, nor their PR company could provide evidence of this claim. So it is 💩!!! www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

Current status: we're smuggling eggs in from Mexico now. So let's talk about WHY Mexico's egg industry has been stable- while US egg prices are through the roof! 1. Mexico puts people in jail for price-fixing. 2. Mexico lets farmers vaccinate their chickens against bird flu.

Te Atatū MP Phil Twyford has written to the charities regulator asking for Destiny Church to be struck off. "Destiny's actions were certainly oppressive, which meets the definition of wrongdoing in the law, and so they should lose their tax deductible status," he said. #destinychurch #kiwi

NZ media really did say "we're literally going to stop covering Tim Jago and not challenge ACT about their role at all", didn't they. Any "NZ media defenders" still out there who want to have a go?
