There's a lot of regurgitation going around.

If the Minister of Education can't wrangle a meeting with Seymour about Dogs' Breakfasts, maybe the Minister of Health help corner him into a pen #ADogsShow www.nzherald.co.nz/gisborne-her...

I'd describe JD Vance more as a foreskin, but I largely agree.

There is no inflation in New England.

Rich and sorted.

Is... Is the Luxon govt getting into crypto to solve the Budget..?

See also Cook Strait Ferries, Three Waters, RMA reform, Road Toll...

Of course Luxon deflects the abysmal school lunch delivery by promoting a Sanitarium product, a company that doesn't pay company tax for religious reasons.

Luxon supports Ukraine and Trvmp. He's Schrodinger's Nat.

Reminder: one of national's genius reasons for a four year term is because "elections are expensive". In other words, they see our democracy as just another cost to be cut. Don't let them. Tell them to go fuck themselves. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

The grot has set in. And no, this isn't about pseudoephedrine being available without prescription. There's been over a decade of this shit being brought in wholesale from overseas. Asia has the supply, NZ has the demand. Abandon all hope all ye who enter here.

Looking forward to the next #nzqt, where Luxon will be asked whether he supports Trvmp or Ukraine. #MNZGA

The company put out a statement

This is how you do Alt Text

Has anyone told Luxon that our Productivity Gap isn't going to be solved by working longer but working smarter? Probably not. He's still hallucinating about mass tourism growing our economy.

Here's the thing about a four year election cycle in New Zealand. We don't have a second chamber. There are no checks and balances on what could be unbridled power. Our checks and balances are the frequent and regular elections where voters can decide if they want more of the same or not.

Having a stroll through The West Wing DVD series again, to get away from all the doomscrolling. It really was 23 minutes into the future.

‘Fix the shitty, late, not-delivered & ugly lunches. Or else.’

My old man was part of the Fourth Labour Govt. Like it or loathe it, they accomplished quite a lot in three years. Then again, they had a competent team back then.

Read this to Tina and she said "It sounds like a Clarke and Dawe skit." Too right😀

You see someone grabbing a co-worker by the upper arm. Is this (i) a Crimes Act assault allowing you to arrest them and tie them up until the Police arrive; or (ii) a Summary Offences Act assault, in which case you cannot. Answer quickly!

I wish people would stop using anarchronistic cliches that no-one under 30 understands. Like, the phone is off the hook, or slapped with a wet bus ticket. This is a wet bus ticket. Seen one recently?

Bugger me. Ryman owns the old Tip Top bread factory. That defunct building has been a blot on the landscape for ages. That'll be the land bankers. Land tax now!

"The Prime Minister has set the bar so low that ministers have to sack themselves" might be the first actual zinger I have heard from Hipkins this term

“Animated discussion” is the new “tired and emotional”.

🤣 nailed it

No, Andrew Bayly, *you* fuck off. In other news, a newly discovered invertebrate is named after Luxon. He could've reshuffled Bayly like he did Reti last month but didn't. www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Night, BSers. We look forward to the week ahead, where Luxon brings back leaded petrol and Trvmp renames February Trvmpruary.

I'd note that we wouldn't need overseas wealth-extractors as much if we hadn't turned our economy into buying each others houses instead of investing in, like, something productive.

Not Trvmp, merely Trvmp-adjacent.

Pretty sure the military is the last line of defence of the US Constitution. Hence Hegworth's purge.

What's your sign?
