So wild to me that NZ voters can’t see the evidence based solutions to problems that the NZ Green Party consistently offer. It’s like some kiwi voters are addicted to thumping themselves in the dick while screaming wOkE rAdIcAl LoOns at the cure to our suffering. Nice interview Chlőe. 💚 #nzpol #NZ
A system that consistently protects perpetrators and undermines survivors is a biased, corrupt system.
How many headlines do we see where a judge is protecting a perpetrator’s good name, their career? How many actions are framed as a judgement error?
Help change an unacceptable status quo👇

BOOM!
South Australia's power prices have plummeted as they near 100% renewables, proving to the world that relying on wind and solar with battery back-up is possible, more reliable and costs people less.
THIS is how we avoid the next oil crisis.

"Authorative" I was trying for... Authors I've? "Authors I've" what?
(Scottish by descent, not Scottish enough to be authors I've) I use left over mash and skip the butter, go-to for leftover mashed potato. Recipe looks solid though.
A short bedtime tale by the 4yo:
"Once upon a time there was a little boy who really wanted a unicorn. But every day, no unicorn came to his house. He would shout, "UNICORN!", but no unicorn came to his house. He wished EXTRA SUPER HARD but still no unicorn came to his house!
Only tigers."
The use of “hallucinate” is a stroke of true evil genius in the AI world.
In ANY other context we’d just call them errors & the fail rate would be crystal clear.
Instead, “hallucinate” implies genuine sentience & the *absence* of real error.
Aw, this software isn’t shit! Boo’s just dreaming!
A new review finds that biological ammonia production offers strong potential as a cleaner, greener alternative to the costly Haber-Bosch process. Microbes such as Azotobacter can produce ammonia under ambient conditions and atmospheric pressure. www.the-microbiologist.com/news/scienti...
What's the odds Willis has to walk this back once Peters hears about it? Could undo all his sucking up.

"The man is a pathological liar. You cannot believe anything he says." may be objectively true, but is not particularly comforting right now

Trump is threatening to erase an entire civilisation. We are watching genocide and war crimes become normalised in real time - Just look at Gaza. And where is the Minister for Foreign Affairs? In the United States, playing footsies with Rubio
The NZ Govt must condemn this right wing lunatic and war criminal. We must stand up for peace and international law. And rapidly phase out fossil fuel dependence.
There is no way that can be real. surely he isn't that shallow and dim? That is like a greatest hits of talking points and soundbites from the last month. There is no actual information, evidence, analysis or trace of cognitive process in the whole thing.
Kia ora. This morning Luxon compared the PM role to being a CEO. It’s a seductive analogy — but it fundamentally misunderstands both political theory and democratic governance. A thread. 🧵
Well that is damning for the current government. Inherited an ok picture and sent things to as bad as during the GFC _before_ there was any global crisis. This is... fine?
Ask them why they’re there…and they’ll tell you it’s as a consequence of your decisions.”
Watch this and you’ll see why nonsense articles in the flavour of the NZ media’s usual misogyny are starting to appear.
Tamatha Paul is the kind of force that generates change - no wonder they’re terrified.

I read the fuel plan from the Nats....
Phase 1: do nothing
Phase 2: do nothing
Phase 3: We haven't decided but she'll be right
Phase 4: We haven't decided but you might still get food and ambulances

The Fuel Subsidy from the govt will cost around $93m over 3 months. The Greens give a cost of free public transport at $143m over three months.
Free PT will reduce fuel use, improve travel times, and reduce pollution at the same time.

On this day in 2020, New Zealand went into COVID Alert Level 4 a.k.a. lockdown. We did really well as a country, saved thousands of lives. Six years later, COVID is part of our landscape; we're in our 9th wave of COVID.

Part time government? Is it her turn to jet somewhere?

Labour’s finance and economy spokesperson, Barbara Edmonds, called this a “failure” by the Government. “National has cancelled or stalled infrastructure projects, costing jobs - especially in construction - while handing tax breaks to tobacco companies and property speculators. “They have left New Zealand weaker and more exposed to global shocks. In fact, the economy is smaller than when they took office,” she said.
Barbara Edmonds has absolutely nailed where Nats went wrong on the economy, imagine what they'll do next! #NZPol
How you gonna win an election with fuel over $4+ a litre? #NZPol
