This could end the threat of a toxic gold mine planned for the Otago wilderness. Santana Minerals believes it doesn’t need to consider the rights of Ngāi Tahu because its toxic open-cast gold mine will be on private land in Otago, but the iwi says that’s wrong.👇🧵

I always assumed human caused global weather craziness was going to crush farmers before the Republican Party would…

I wish more people understood that the United States was a democracy from 1965 until 2013.

More absolutely grotesque & gross behaviour by Rod Drury being described over on LinkedIn. I'm feeling in shock, really.

A wet baby toroa tonight, at Taiaroa Head.

for anyone wondering why the "voyager media awards" have booted voyager's naming rights, some clues in this webworm piece from last year: www.webworm.co/nzmediaawards/

In summary: “… they will purge the agencies that enforce accountability, they will rewrite the law so that they are no longer breaking it… and if they are clever, they will eliminate any structural protections you had before the majority realizes the extent of the damage.” - Sarah Kendzior #nzpol

This is a total disaster for the country and it is not an accident - it is policy. We have knowingly created a 'buffer stock' of unemployed people desperate for work because ghouls think that this is the best way to stop wages/prices going up. Who suffers? The young and the marginalised. Disgusting.

OK NZ Bluesky, what did Seeby Woodhouse post that has caused his company to get instantly booted off naming rights to the Voyagers? #kikorangi

The ever great Jane Kelsey's done a great unpicking of the NZ/Iidia FTA in Stuff. I'm cooling on it fast.Training up rivals is always a bad career move.

Did someone here have intel on the status of the govt (nz) zero data programme? As in, it might be stopping?

Taking bets on when Rod Drury loses his NZer of the year award?

Life comes at you quick! The Mayor of Timaru took the Labour govt to the High Court over water reform This morning he’s been rolled out as a cheerleader for the coalition government’s amalgamation proposal Whatever might the difference be?

I remember Craig Stobo as a smart young thing at university. We're talking early 80s. How the mighty are, etc.

Hollywood has developed a collective eating disorder based around a particular set of medications that almost no one in Hollywood needs, and the result is that a lot of beautiful people now look like they're dying, and culturally, this is going to be so phenomenally destructive, esp for young ppl.

Rudy Giuliani, I'll always remember how you put the nypd counterterrorism office in the twin towers so you could be closer to you mistress so on 9/11 itself you had no place to coordinate a response, causing the deaths of hundreds of firefighters.

I know it's my thing but GOD DAMN the ferries thing is so fucking emblematic of this government. While they're being implored to spend more money to prop up horse racing they've fucked the key infrastructure project linking the mainland to the north, come on man this is mental
