These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

Tram driver day one. Finally a professional railwayman

Berlin has so much public transport yet NZ is still quibbling about a train to Hamilton. Get with the programme

Look what I got to pretend on @drdrehistorian.bsky.social Talgo lok. Couldn’t go anywhere as it’s not yet approved

Train time

Just professional interest ;)

He's the greatest, he's fantastic Wherever there is danger he'll be there He's the ace, he's amazing He's the strongest he's the quickest … Under this unassuming kerb lies the secret base if DM @brislen.nz @me.vivianchandra.com

Leaving, on a jet plane

Did I just hear Nikki No Boats say that Labour would threaten our fiscal reputation? Self awareness or what?

It’s surely time for the world to just turn their collective backs on him. No attention, no negotiation and ignore his Putin bromance.

I direct NZers attention to who was asking in the House if politicians had backbone in 2008

New Zealand steadfastly trying to deny and suppress the emerging reality that it is Aotearoa, a Pacific multicultural island nation.

@jim09ea63.bsky.social you’re redundant mate. Have a rebro

I do not think this government campaigned on "being a suckup vassal country to an authoritarian child rapist" and I think if they did they would have had fewer votes #nzpol

@duolingoverde.bsky.social what is wrong with you. Torte is cake - why do you not allow it (see also strassenbahn is tram not streetcar). Nobody says layer cake. Please stop pushing only US English (and accept European Soanish too for that matter el coche is a car)

Seymour sets his monkeys on scientists and experts. #nzpol #cartoons #Listenermag

It’s tram @duolingoverde.bsky.social only the Yanks use streetcar

Amanda leading the korero at #DeafblindAssociationNZ

Having a ball with the Deafblind Association NZ conference. Poöice and Fire& Emergency taking the podium now.

The United States wants the unilateral authority to decide who should be able to use certain technologies. In a new piece, I talk about everything from Iran to Andor to discuss how US tech supremacy gives it power over others that it’s working hard to maintain — to all of our detriment.

📣📣 Aotearoa, take a bow! 📣📣 🗣 Approximately 131,000 submissions made, 2nd highest ever after the Treaty Principles Bill. I puta te karanga, and Aotearoa, you answered. ❤️✊🏾💯 #NZPol #RSB #ToitūTeTiriti

If any single person associated with Labour suggested they are creaming it getting Tax from smokers and then saving on the superannuation bill when those smokers die young their career would be over and you all know it #NZPol

Everyone should be very clear. ACT want to remove all opposition to selling New Zealand off to private ownership by foreign owners. That's why they attack Te Tiriti. It's why they are attacking planning laws. It's why they are attacking Local Government #nzpol www.thepress.co.nz/nz-news/3607...

Saturday brunch. A treat I look forward to over the weekday Weetabix. #food

Glad Luxon thinks things are pretty good. Just been one of 24 interviewed out of 1200 for 4 roles. Clearly things are a box of fluffies outside Luxon Towers.

Probably the time my dog tried to bite Worzel Gummidge’s nose (Jon Pertwee). I warned him she was snappy

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

Where is cinema @duolingo ? Why do you insust of us translating twice for yiur bloody Yank audience

Any time anyone tells you the firearms registry is a waste of time and money, you can point them to this article

Lawrie gets it spot on. Was a pleasure to meet him too. youtu.be/uDm9JyBhtUA?...

Why the heck do we have to translate the English to be able to complete the German. What the actual fxcf is ‘layer cake’ Duo?

20 mph limits in London have more than doubled the reduction in road deaths (34% vs 15%) achieved by other means, but still the usual miserabilists complain 🙄 (Speed limit of 20mph 'reduced crashes and deaths', TfL says - BBC News) www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

"shut up you dickhead" (to Chris Bishop) Don McGlashan last minute nominee for Order of New Zealand in the Kings Birthday Honours List What a national treasure.

30 min first meeting between the CTU and Minister of Workplace Relations after 18 months of this govt

van velden is quick to cry misogyny when she is getting a small tangential measure of it, put is happy enough to use the power of the state to keep institutional and societal misogyny firmly in place for all. #nzpol

It’s a good job @nznationalparty.bsky.social is laser focussing on the cost of living - I must’ve dreamt cheese at $17 a block today and butter at $10. Get a grip Luxon.

I know pay equity is rightly taking up all the airtime tonight but 3/6 of the newly announced members of the Science and Technology Council have backgrounds in dairy specifically? No disrespect to the individuals in question but that's just embarrassing for us as a country

Stationmaster Ferrymead again. Lovely evening

I have heard the Bus special just about every time I tune into Dandelion this month. I t’s a great show - National Express by Divine Comedy, Roll Bus Roll Jeffrey Lewis and regular reminder of the genius Jake Thackery with North-Country Bus. Do yourself a favour - dandelionradio.com #music

Paul Revere 2025: “The British aren’t coming and nor are the Europeans or Canadians….”

Can anyone expladevelopers to me? Working on a webpage where the links weren’t in the tab order - weird. Turns out the ‘links’ are <a> with no href and javasript onclick handlers. Why ? Totally inaccessible and twice the work of <a><href =url> where you get all the link behaviour for free

Hey USians, if you wonder why you are not popular just look at Cinnabon who move in and stop a local bakery using a name they have had for years. Fuck you corporate America. Learn some humility
