Sure would be cool if NZ vaccinated 6mo-5yrs, and actually let all ages get an updated vax every 6 months.

Crime is down but also crime is up, which means the government is doing good but also we should let it do more draconian shit. Got it. #nzpol

My position on AI is similar to my position on RWers: I like the ongoing human project of creating meaning, and these two are enemies of meaning, the former by statistical regurgitation, the latter by dishonesty.

Nancy Reagan may be notorious for her "throat GOAT" legacy, but heads of state being good at oral sex is nothing new. In fact, all the way back in the 1240s, in Xanadu did Kublai Khan some STATELY pleasure-dome decree

Hey NZ / #Kikorangi, the very not actually Free Speech Union is lobbying its members to sign up to Internet NZ, and we need to do the same to ensure that organisation doesn’t get dominated by loonies. You can sign up here: internetnz.nz/membership/ (it does cost a wee bit)

This is BIG news; very interested to find out what went down here, and Minister van Velden's hesitancy to give any information indicates it's not going to be good. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3605...

I joined InternetNZ last night because I've seen that the Free Speech Union has suddenly taken an interest and is trying to unbalance it in their favour. If you want to balance that out you might want to join too? I'm happy to fund if $$ are an issue! internetnz.nz/membership/

I've now heard from several InternetNZ folks that the Taxpayer Union and Free Speech Union are trying for a takeover of InternetNZ and are flooding the membership rolls with their supporters. We need to ensure they can't take it over: internetnz.nz/membership/

Slightly annoying that this week's Buttondown newsletter's analytics don't make any sense. Did an email get sent out? Two? What's going on?

My thesis statement is basically when a film chooses not to answer a central question, that points you towards an unresolved (or unresolvable) tension that the filmmaker is gesturing at. They don't have a fixed answer, which is their answer.

NZ government IT systems need to get off US-based cloud systems ASAP, as a matter of national security. When critical systems can be disabled on the whim of an autocrat it is pure folly to remain exposed any longer than necessary. (Actually it was a folly to allow it in the first place.) #nzpol

Thank you to everyone who showed up in support of Aotearoa's queer and takatāpui communities yesterday. Together we stood, and together we defied Destiny. We were so glad we could share a wonderful afternoon of courage, community, and joy with all 1,200 of you.
