What's your sign?

Sundown out west

maga is worried Geographers will take them down? So they should be. Cancelling geographers won't stop their work. They're a dedicated bunch. All power to them.

Nail on the head...

Empire building... oppression, genocide and war

'Consultation' with this bunch of angry VFW fans means we have to let them decide what's right for our capital city?! Wellington overwhelmingly voted for Let's Get Wellington Moving. Bike lanes in Kent Terrace are a huge plus and connection with the Courtenay Place and golden mile will be awesome

It’s a coup. It’s a strategic alliance with Putin. It’s the end of the post-war international order. It’s the triumph of lies over truth and in Putin’s case, evil over good. We are through the looking glass & we all now have to decide who we are & what we stand for

They are in the same mould... trump is dictator putin's mini me The free world needs to act fast

To be clear. It is time for world leaders to stop Trump. He will blatantly lie and threaten every nation (except those run by like minded dictators) to get what he wants)

Well worth reading and rereading this article...

"Due to the unreliability of the MOE, the ad hoc directives they seem to be issued with, and the increasing concern that NZATE will be represented as agreeing to what is being developed, we have decided to step back from working with the MOE” "It does feel like an absolute shambles," #nzpol

Trump's rapid descent into madness regarding Gaza, USAid, the ICC, Panama, Greenland, Canada/Mexico, mass deportations, Diversity Equity Inclusion, climate change.... Is it time for the rational world to think seriously about imposing sanctions on Trump’s USA...

My daughter... scrolling through pics on the phone: "is that a thumb?" ... Oops.. no it's the prime minister 😂

#nzpol Not surprised at BvV not engaging with Unions who'd debunk ACT ideology. I was at her consultation with business leaders on health and safety. It comprised 'do you really want to pay more for regulatory oversight?' subtext: we 'trust you' to protect workers' safety when we wind down WorkSafe

If you oppose DEI, you should use the full phrase instead of just the letters. Be brave and say ‘I oppose diversity, equity and inclusion’. Bonus points if you admit which part of that you don’t like. Be proud of your opinions, let us know if it’s diversity, equity, or inclusion you don’t like

Here is Justin Tipa’s powerful speech at Ōnuku today, a profound challenge to national leadership, a scathing attack on the ideological extremism of Act it also offers a path for unity - it received a standing ovation: ‘We are not the Radicals’ ngaitahu.iwi.nz/connect-2/co...

Riddle me this, if Labour building 3k to 4k state houses per year could not catch up on the state house waiting list of 20k then how does National hope to when they are *saying* they will add just an additional 400 per year? #NZPol

Take a bow... Sir Ian Taylor Person of the Tear. A fine analysis indeed! “for better or for worse” on events of the year - David Seymour #NZPol www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

Now for the new stations at Drury and Paerata to be built and open, and I will have a new home station 😀

Hey, NZ -some pedestrian exclusion history, playing now on a road near you. "The 1925 [LA] law became a model for the country, copied and imitated throughout [USA]. It was not the product of car culture, which was a nascent force. The public did not ask for it, and no referendum was held about it."

Hamilton summer along the river. Not quite how I remember it when i was a kid. The river walkway is pretty good these days.

The (hmm) leader of the free world says you are nasty if you want to talk about... "unity as a nation – not for agreement, political or otherwise, but for the kind of unity that fosters community across diversity and division, a unity that serves the common good"

Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked." She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

This is interesting — NFL teams WANT TO use Bluesky, but aren’t allowed to! The NFL, which has deals with X and Meta, told the New England Patriots to shut down their Bluesky account. Not okay, NFL.
