A lovely man just came up to my husband on the street and told him he looks like Corpse Grinder

My take on the 2026 edition of listgate is that sometimes it's good when a candidate is declined but sometimes it could be a concerning thing worth paying attention to

That was quick!!!

I'm gonna need you all to argue more I'm trying to use Bluesky but where's the spice

It was thrilling but most importantly we made it obviously thank u Nathan Fielder

Just landed in Pōneke!! U know when everyone on a plane kinda gets the anxious giggles but tries to look chill about how they're gripping really tight, eyes fixated out the window? Thinking about impending death? Yeah one of those landings today lol

"Make this a one term government" is a fascinating line which invites voters to continue to think short term, and in the boxes of major party systems, without also inviting us share in dreaming up a better world. I reckon we can do better than this!

I guess except 9/11

Taylor Swift being remixed by the Chainsmokers is probably the most millennial thing that's happened yet

I can't believe the depth of existential dread in my tummy right now was triggered by something called fucking Nano Banana

-- media complaint is incoherent. We should see this with clear eyes as an attempt to ensure a freer path to disseminating propaganda and divisive hate speech. Their goal is to sow chaos.

Absolutely ridiculous to see the Act Party lodge a members bill to do the exact opposite of what is necessary and further de-regulate broadcasting and media. The argument that the law is outdated bc it doesn't cover online media, but that the BSA overreached in responding to an online media --

The same blood ranks them, the same blood dims A Labour Day reflection on the meaningful power of our unions in taking on one of the most existential threats humanity has known

I spent my Labour Day writing this piece reflecting years of Union activism on climate change and you should read it :') shrecsyonmain.substack.com/p/the-same-b...

Anyone out here from Ministry for Women and also a Union delegate (or active member?) xxx

“That gum you like is going to come back in style.” Television as an embodied experience across digital developments, using sonic methodologies in Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: The Return as a case study.

The biggest #strike in generations on October 23 has the power to reshape the political landscape of Aotearoa

Shaw back with black eye James Shaw walked to work a day after he was assaulted while heading to the office, and plans to keep doing so.

Then Green Party co-leader James Shaw was attacked while walking to work. He suffered a fractured eye ball and black eye, but said he still felt safe.

That's what de-escalation and kindness looks like #nzpol

Taylor Swift is many things and that includes a vicious business person and hugely successful capitalist (not a compliment) so I can't imagine anything she does is accidental 🤷‍♀️ (sorry coming out as a Swiftie lol)

Maybe she is just a pop girlie and she wanted to play with some songs she likes! We see her at the awards show she knows all the songs

Do I know why? Maybe it's a way to challenge the story around "suing" Olivia Rodrigo for writing credits (didn't happen, no one knows what happened bc neither ever said anything about it) or maybe it's a way to respond to the Ed Sheeran copyright case

Brave admission: Not only do I love The Life of a Showgirl but I think the interpolations and references are so clearly intentional that it's wild to see the internet go hard with the copying call outs

PM Christopher Luxon ranked 15th in Cabinet, latest Mood of the Boardroom survey reveals "People are feeling it," the finance minister, ranked 13th herself, says after a major survey of business leaders.

Much appreciated very jealous

As with every other speech they've made in Parliament, @benjamin-doyle.greens.org.nz leaves us all the gift of their wisdom with a call to revolutionary love and action for our tamariki. Aotearoa history will look back with esteem on their mana and leadership 💚👑

The inclination to think big with central govt funding (infrastructure, innovation) may mean we can deal with waste better but it also comes with disconnection, centralisation and a loss of understanding of our ecosystems. We gotta get our hands into the soil more

A v cup filling day back with my community waste mates at the Zero Waste Network hui today!! Thinking about how deeply we've lost track of the importance of nourishing our soil to nourish ourselves

We can't control how people react to us, but we can hold onto and project our values and dignity despite em eh

This is such a very important passage. A role model in doing politics differently

Still a better option for South Auckland than Daniel Newman xxxxx

An electoral hoarding that reads "vote vote vote" with a picture of a rubbish bin labelled Weekly Rubbish, and the #LoveManurewa

Hot new candidate in the Manurewa ward elections just dropped (a rubbish bin)
