This party isn’t just for Māori. It’s for anyone who knows the system isn’t working. We get called ‘radicals’ because we won’t stay in our place We’re misrepresented because we challenge what’s been normalised. We’re not here to smooth things over in a broken system. #NZPol

Nintendo have become the epitome of playing it safe. They used to release consoles that were interesting and/or a big jump in power, but now they've just released a slightly better version of their last one, in line with Sony, and Microsoft.

I was already absolutely loving this year as music releases go, but holy shit, Between The Buried And Me (my favourite band) have an album coming soon, and I am so, so excited.

*takes long drag on a spaceman cigarette* If Americans don't think it's ok for marines to be deployed against US citizens why do so many of them think it's ok for US marines to be deployed against citizens of any other country?

The Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge remaster/remix is really, really good. I hope more victims of the loudness war get the same treatment, I'd especially love to hear it done with Nevermind.

people are like "we can't let them come after porn because it will hurt more than porn" and that's absolutely true, but it's still unacceptable to hurt porn in and of itself. how very dare.

Jazz stems from the field hollers and work songs of enslaved Africans during the Civil War era, expressing pain, hope, and resilience. The creativity of African rhythms and spirituality helped shape the soul of American music. 77 days to Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountdownToSRD

It's endlessly frustrating how many people don't understand how MMP works. It's been 29 years, there really needs to be a better effort to educate people.

Oh, cool, the woman who fucked the country up right before I was born won an award.

I'm getting the feeling the speed limit increases were a bad idea.

If you follow me, you're probably a fan of NZ native wildlife and are always looking for a chance to help out. Pūkaha wildlife centre, home to a native sanctuary and kiwi breeding programmes, needs some urgent financial help. If you have a few spare bucks, consider sending it their way.

We should start hassling Chris Bishop every time he goes to a gig.

So Tory Whanau gets attacked for getting drunk and maybe acting a little silly, but when Chris Bishop gets drunk and acts like a dick there aren't many takes on it in the media.

So Chris Bishop was a drunk arsehole. Which just means he was himself, but drunk.

All of us with STEAM accounts need to go report this shit, it's incredibly sickening to see this shit created and sold on the backs of ongoing war crimes against Ukrainians.

I can't do more than share this, but if I have any followers who can donate some money to Palestinians, please do.

My cat is weird.
