That's about it...

The President is threatening genocide and possible use of nuclear weapons against Iran.

It’s clear the President has continued to decline and is not fit to lead. The members of his Cabinet must invoke the 25th Amendment immediately.

Have you noticed that the government are more concerned with not looking like Labour handling a crisis than handling the crisis? #nzpol

Was listening to Cat Steven's Peace Train. Immediately jumped to the cynic about the shitshow we're in, it hit me...

This is exactly what we need. An international uprising of the idealist & the hopeful saying this is enough, we deserve & want peace

Don't let the cynicism make you hopeless

This is an essential resource for building your own understanding of our fuel supplies. Thanks @rlmrdlnz.bsky.social for the tip
