This is why I don’t use any SM that insists on verified identity/address/phone number etc.

“Cyber security expert Daniel Ayers said ManageMyHealth was using an outdated encryption protocol, TLS 1.2 from 2008..” Yeah that’s pretty par for the course for govt systems here in NZ. The number of environments I worked on still running NT4 after 2005 was…too many. #nzpol

re: ManageMyHealth breach This is important. A lot of people are going to be saying "meh, it's only my vaccination records, what are they going to do with those?", and the answer is: use it trick you into thinking they're someone you trust.

When I say "Happy New Year to you and yours," I just assume the "yours" are a bunch of cats.

I'm trying to stay positive going into 2026, but real talk: I am raggedy AF.

Reckons on power prices next year have more press real estate than NZ’s Health Portal being compromised. Exposing hundreds of thousands of patients confidential medical data. But y’know..how much might your power bill be next month? Our govt and complicit media fucking suck. #nzpol

Breakdown:1975 really shows America hasn’t learnt a fukn thing in the last 50 years. At least they had decent movies as the world burned. Shame that’s the bit that isn’t being repeated.

“Would you like to learn more about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints?” “Nah. I’ve seen enough crime documentaries on Netflix thanks”

Happy New Year everyone in Aotearoa Stay safe and well. Feeling sick, stay at home. Feeling tipsy, please don't drive ❤️ #nz #happynewyear

Nice to see it’ll be awesome weather…starting the day I go back to work. Fukn.

Sweet dreams are made of this...

Headline should read “Fundy govt who thinks they’re in with the 12 tribes of Israel when it comes to rapture time, won’t say anything to piss them off.” #nzpol

The increase in spending just happens to coincide with the increase in the cost of *gestures around* since Nact came into power. #nzpol

been thinkin a lot about boobs today

sometimes life feels like the video where that girl makes bone broth and she puts the sieve over the sink and pours the broth over it just for it to all disappear down the drain and then she gasps when she realises what she’s done

inside of you are two seniors in adult diapers

Scott Ian (Anthrax guitar) held open a backstage door for me.

Yep. Lasting image is of her and Beetlejuice Handy, looking like howler monkeys during Biden’s State of the Union.

And so the fuck what if it did happen? Putin attacked the entire country so, fuck him. I’d try to kill him too.

I don't want gen AI in my browser I don't want gen AI in my pc I don't want gen AI in my art I don't want gen AI in my games I don't want gen AI in my music I don't want gen AI in my movies I don't want gen AI in my books I don't want gen AI in my cart I don't want gen AI in my life

That would be because you're a cunt Johhny

Chippy could benefit from understanding this. #nzpol

Couple whinging on the ODT that their furniture container has been delayed. “But we booked it in April to avoid the Christmas rush” That’s like complaining that your flight is delayed because you bought tickets 5 months ago. I think I’m more pissed at the journalist for writing it tbh.

3 months since this pic. The crates are packed away. Comes and hangs out of her own accord. Doesn’t freak out if arms get raised above shoulder level. Pretty predictable toileting. Comes when called..mostly. Still isn’t a huge fan of strangers. Best. Dog. Ever. #normageddon #sighthound

Ohhh, makes ya think 💭 #nzpol

“Yeah look, I don’t know what happened either. I was hoping you might have some answers”

The worst thing about gentrification is the shit music they bring. 😑

Christmas should probably involve more drugs

🎄Meri Kirihimete, Merry Christmas from the forecasters at MetService! 🎉Have a time and here's to a new year!

#nzbirds One of my pūtangitangi is injured. Looks pretty grievous, dog attack I suspect. Please does anyone have any leads on anything I can do for it? DOC not interested (guess we do hunt them after all) and our local emergency vet were like 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ can't see any open bird rescue options either. ōamaru

If you do get one of these for Christmas please be a responsible owner and pick-up after them.

And with the King's message, the Andrew formerly known as Prince, has been erased from the Royal family for good.

We are currently experiencing a Category Five White Christmas Event, this is the southern hemisphere what the hell

we should watch se7en before opening these gifts [my mom] how come

Christmas Hail (and large Thunderstorm) hitting Ōtipoti (the main city) in about 45 minutes. Brace for impact.

Heads up Dunedin. Severe thunderstorm warning in about 20 minutes. Very large hail expected. #dunedinAoNZ

They really should just rename it to Onion Dip mix.

Its chittering is quite odd. Thought it was a possum growling at first.

Little bit too comfortable. Was swooping Norma, who understandably was freaking out (his talons and beak could cause her catastrophic injuries)

☃️❄️ All I want for Christmas is 35 new subscribers on my YouTube channel so I can hit 1000 by 2026 (or at least my 6 year anniversary in February). It is not political, it's a variety channel. So if you're looking for distractions... 🎁Please consider gifting me a YouTube subscription. It's free. 😊

If you liked Lestat in the “Interview With A Vampire” series, can highly recommend “The Newsreader” on Netflix. So much better when he isn’t feigning a shite French accent.

People in public using their phone like this.

Make your website work on mobile, I do not want your shitty app
