I've been asked to speak at this tonight.

Who else is watching Half Man ? Bleak and brilliant. So good. #HalfMan #RichardGadd

Today is Nakba Day. You cannot understand what lies at the heart of conflict in the Middle East unless you understand what happened to 85% of Palestinians in 1948. Here Eugene Rogan explains how hundred of thousands ended up as homeless refugees in Gaza

Winter means pyjamas

Just a reminder. Arguably, one of the biggest war crimes of the 21st century. The man with responsibility, is a wanted war criminal.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social is spot on here, the Greens aren't splitting the left vote because this Labour party isn't left wing.

Father Louis, known for his spiritual guidance and national presence—most notably leading a funeral prayer for slain journalist Shireen Abu Akleh in Jenin—was reportedly targeted due to his influential role among the youth and his vocal stance on the occupation.

#NZpol "This story has been corrected to say the Green Party went up 1.9 points, not down as first published." Maybe news outlets could check shit better *before publishing*? Most ignore rewrites bc they're already talking up *the wrong information*... But who cares, *it's the Greens* right?!

Wow, a FORMER staffer? Wait'll Coughlan and the rest of the media discover what CURRENT politicians in the government are posting daily!!

For those of you who don't know, each of those 16 keyboxes represents a home that someone once called home in the heart of the Old Town, and which is now somewhere a visitor pays an absentee landlord £400 to stay in for two nights. Through AIRBnB.

So all the reports say Burr said something to piss off Maiki - he needs to come forward and explain. #lloydburr

we've been well-educated about why we need to pay the world price for our products (meat & dairy). Why doesn't the same logic apply to our people? www.1news.co.nz/2026/05/10/w...

I've heard it's happening in Iceland too 😔 Maybe it's time we just stop eating the dang salmon, people?

Free Speech Union must be so proud to get someone cancelled for private, heated words at drinks a year ago after a taunt. Apologies were quickly made, and all had already moved on (except National which kept it a a hit to be used if needed) Ani O'Brien FSU - another round of applause

I’m so angry at this out come and sad for her. She’s a brilliant journalist and didn’t deserve this. www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/3609...

The fact that our media increasingly publishes “I’m not political!” pieces about people who work for a right-wing astroturf groups sends a strong signal about who the media serves

Well she would say that, wouldn’t she. www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

This should never be forgotten.

LinkedIn seems weirdly full of angry entitled white men.

Our latest Intersections 2.0 report is a deep dive into the socio-economic inequalities facing LGBTI people across Europe. Who is most affected, and why? Read the report: ilga-europe.org/report/intersections-2-0-key-findings-on-socio-economic-inequalities-experienced-by-lgbti-people-in-europe/

My latest thoughts - thinking or over-thinking? open.substack.com/pub/mstevnz/...

Far-right Christian nationalist pastor Joel Webbon calls for the “full removal of feminism” and says democracy must be “taken away by force” so “masculine men” can decide what’s right. It's giving *No woman wants me so let me destroy them all* Sit down, Joel. Sorry you didn't make the cut. 💀

Here’s how the Editorial Cartoonists are reacting to Wednesday’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais. Some of the most accurate commentary during the Reconstruction period came from Cartoonists like Thomas Nast. Needless to say, the reaction to the decimation of the Voting Rights Act has been pointed…

ACT has released an overtly fascist 'immigration' policy, that includes creating NZ ICE, and this is how NZ media (RNZ no less!) is reporting it "tougher", a "shakeup" NZ media once again acting as facilitators for fascism. They could easily choose not to do this, if they wished

i think to fix immigration we should just deport 5 act members for every migrant we let in. And when we run out of act members, well good. The program worked. And then we keep letting in migrants.

In case you’re wondering, this is a real post.

Half Man is brilliant but brutal. #halfman

One of the greatest poets, Cavafy, died on April 29th. "Body, Remember" is one of my favourite of his poems. #Cavafy

Happy April 28 to all who celebrate!

An old friend has gone right down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Sigh.

Morning!

It was a misty autumn morning

Very interesting, especially given our dinosaur politicians who want more oil... #energy www.theguardian.com/environment/...

social media was a wonderful brain toilet for every random half thought you didn't want to bother real people with before they decided to move all of society and infrastructure and government inside of the toilet

Israel has killed more journalists than any other nation in history. More than the total number of journalists killed during the U.S. Civil War, WWI, WWII, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War combined.

I love this greyhound pin a friend of mine made. And now it’s cool enough to wear a jacket I can take it out. #greyhound #jewellery

Hey Israel - let's celebrate genocide! www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

Orhan Pamuk's "Masumiyet Muzesi" (The Museum of Innocence) on Netflix is wonderful. Cannot recommend it highly enough. I loved the novel, and this is a brilliant produciton. Beautiful to watch, wonderfully acted, just excellent. #OrhanPamuk #MasumiyetMuzesi

For those attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner this weekend, a small question: When you're sitting there at your table, do you think it'll cross your mind that the guest of honor is actively covering up his role in a massive child sex trafficking operation?

see my consistent comments this year that nz media, across the board, are amplifying NZF populism while actively avoiding the fucked up and weird shit that is an active and overt editorial choice by every major outlet in the country why? and why is no one in media speaking out to question it?

10 out of 10 greyhounds agree that Western Springs is perfect for an early morning walk.

In light of Starmer being open and transparent over the security clearance of Mandelson, only fair that Badenoch now releases the advice surrounding Lord Lebedev. We still don’t know why the son of a former KGB agent is in the House of Lords. www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-poli...

Every. Single. Day. Sometimes, we get multiples in one day. Absolutely insane. He’s NOT working for the American People. He is grifting for himself.
