I'm so goddamn tired of this fucking bullshit. There is absolutely no reason except evil fascist fuckery for any country to be going after trans people for merely existing. Not a single trans person has done shit to me and mine. The warmongering fucking pigs in power *are* doing shit to me and mine.

All the political news this week has been absolute garbage. It feels overwhelming and that’s on purpose. So it’s more important to seek out the people and causes that give you hope. And give them your time, money and attention. It can be better. We just have to work together.

new zealander everlee wihongi - kidnapped by ICE 41 days ago - was meant to take the stand today in front of a wisconsin judge. but ICE had other plans. webworm has the latest on this story - please RT, and share: www.webworm.co/everleemay21/

The amount Upston claimed last year was $52,000, on top of her $320,600 ministerial salary. Upston says her crack down on poor people acquiring accomodation help is about being fair. But tell me, do you think its fair that Upston herself takes an even larger suppliment at the same time?

Cruelty is anhedonic. It rarely delivers the euphoria promised because, in the abstract, what feels righteous and joyful inevitably reveals itself to be sordid and small. Then it's "No not like that". "No not enough". "No the real battle, the forever war to make this feel good starts now". Forever.

I create my botanical photos using recent research so that looking at them alleviates anxiety & twice a yr I list card sets & prints on Etsy.

Tldr: I went to the famous Oxford Union Debate to hold Empire accountable. Against 3 older power laden men pimping for colonisation. No biggie. I shat myself. It was terrifying. I won by just agreeing to do it, and telling my story anyway. But the win of 163-86 was a bonus. youtu.be/SlZE8BT_fio?...

There is no way of cutting backroom staff without affecting frontline staff and the service you receive and how this Government keeps being allowed to spout this bullshit unchallenged is beyond me.

Is the Government budgeting for significant spend on the AI that they claim will replace those jobs? Any concerns held that this spending will head straight over the horizon to international corporates rather than circulating through our economy like payroll does?

Can a bluesky plea possibly summon up someone near Christchurch who has a rotary phone gathering dust in their garage? (Wanting to borrow one for a prop for a school play)

The only people who destabilise society is the rich

The NZ Govt charges the same Road User Charge to a small electric car as it charges a giant 3.5 tonne diesel SUV. Giant cars cause more road damage, more injuries and deaths to pedestrians, cyclists and children, more climate and air pollution. It is a bizarre subsidy and it needs to change.

We have a winner.

Although I'm sure that you already have, may I check that you've voted, Dunedin?

FREE EVERLEE WIHONGI "WE MUST SHOW UP! 📅 Sat 16 May ⏰ 1pm 📍 Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade – 23 Quay St, Akld DEMAND answers for Everlee. Demand Minister Peters ACT NOW. CAN’T ATTEND? Email the Minister immediately: 📧 [email protected] Tell him: Find Everlee Wihongi." @toitu_te_aroha

Dunedin voters - you still have time to enrol and vote if you haven't yet done so.

A pretty demonstrably bad democracy when the kidnapping of a NZ citizen by the US inspires zero concern - across the board. If this had happened during Jacinda Ardern’s term NZ media would have followed her every move until this was resolved. The silence - and the complicity - is very loud. #nzpol

new zealander everlee wihongi was due to meet with her lawyer yesterday. then ICE moved her to their most notorious tent facility in texas: 3000 people, highest death rate, most sexual assaults. and today, she disappeared off the system. please RT: www.webworm.co/everleehasdi...
