Snuck in one last "yummy shit I can't really afford but fuckit it's my birthday next week" Farro order before the afterpay rules change for groceries 😭 Treats are manageable when I can pay them off over a couple of months. I know afterpay is bad, but hear me out... treats.

I'm brave and cool enough to say the citizens arrest changes are unforgivable and incompatible with a functional democracy and any support for them is craven horseshit

In my professional opinion, it's dangerous and irresponsible for the NZ Police to expand "citizens' arrest powers" at a time when Sovereign Citizen communities regularly try to issue warrants for people's arrests and "writs of execution."

URGENT: Public consultation on the Arms Act rewrite closes THIS FRIDAY at midnight Feb 28. The Islamic Women’s Council of NZ & I personally oppose these changes. We fought hard for strong firearm regulations after 15 March Terrorist Attacks. We must speak up now. 🧵1/7 #GunControlSoNeeded

I wonder if, in general, people don't know how prevalent the cooker nuremburg 2.0 shit still is. Just last year my name and face were circulated in a telegram chat called "NZ crimes against humanity". These are the people this emboldens

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/

It strikes me that having seen what the sovcit 'common law' crowd will do when they think something is unlawful under their made up law it is *breathtakingly* irresponsible for the government to provide a "read the act and see what you think is a crime" blank cheque to private citizens to use force.

Cops hate this citizens arrest thing because it's a logistical and legal nightmare. 1. Each citizens arrest requires police attendance 2. Establishing whether a crime has been committed, likely to be a disaster area. 3. The detainee claims they've been assaulted. Cool, now it's two crimes!

The algorithm served me a cooking for toddler page and everything looks delicious? It's me. The toddler.

Tomorrow, the Counting Ourselves team release their 2022 report on trans health and wellbeing in Aotearoa. The inaugural 2018 report has been vital for efforts all around the motu advocating for equitable access to care in the last 7 years - this one will speak to a new context, but just as vital.

I don't think I care who's leading the National Party on account of the fact that they're leading the National Party? Like I think our PM is an embarassment but I also don't think they've got better. And that they've got A LOT worse. LOL.

CITIZENS ARRESTS? WHAT IN THE FASCISM?!

Why after a million years does Grammarly not know that I do not wish to use Grammarly? It's the ONLY I ad I get on youtube? WHY???????

Time for my regularly scheduled watching Jonny Lee Miller and Rhys Ifans chewing scenery for a hour. #Elementary omnomnom.

I have roasted some butternut and kūmara and potatoes in zataar and they will be topped with pistacchios and pomegranate and served alongside a tomato/cucumber/feta/sumac situation and tzatziki. Kind of merging several dishes I had half-used ingredients for from my Falastin cookbook.

There is this one person in my fandom whose reckons are so consistently wrong and gross, I confess that I dip in and look at their bullshit occasionally for a laugh. I cannot imagine living in a way that clearly makes them SO miserable. Why are you here? It's fandom! It's COMPLETELY OPTIONAL!

In news that is both rude and incredibly inconvenient, apparently this mythical mystery thing called "getting enough sleep" really helps with ability to function as a human.

Does anyone have suggestions for a gentle de-radicalization along these lines? I wish I had more books, podcasts and YouTubers to send people drifting into the Rogan-verse

Does anyone have a guide they like or assessment guidance they use for asking students to write reflectively on their own media experiences and practices?

webworm can report that legal threats have been made to gender-affirming healthcare professionals in new zealand. the letter puts recipients “on notice” that they may one day face “legal action” for offering gender affirming care. health NZ has responded: www.webworm.co/p/legalthrea...

Dear manager, 1. We can have so much fun 2. There's so much we can do 3. It's just you and me 4. I can give you more 5. Don't you know that the time has arrived (huuuuaaaahhhhhhhhhhh)

yo NZ it's verified, in this country 61% of men and one in three women are deluuuuuuusional

Centrists are having a hard time grappling with actual Nazism because for the first time they have to acknowledge they are halfway between Nazism and Freedom.

Shitting hell literally hundreds of cops have shown up at Rotokākahi and have started arresting folks who are trying to stop a sewerage pipeline being put through a wāhi tapu. They are asking folks who can to show up for a shift. #nzpol www.instagram.com/protectrotok...

Of all the various hot cross bun abominiations available here I do so wish someone would recreate the M&S chilli cheese ones.

Is it time to disenfranchise men

The current state of the science system – ranging from purgatory to vandalism – has made the front page of today Herald with good articles by @jamiemorton.bsky.social. (1/n)
