This drove past me today. I coughed for an hour afterwards 😄 but it's pretty cool!

Abso-fucking-lutely not. Never eat octopus. Think of them as a pet or one of your kids. That's how smart they are.

I take it everyone has seen this by now? Masterful ❤️

The annoying Christchurch police helicopter is back again. Someone called the police when they saw a person knocking on their neighbour's door and they sent the helicopter to look for them.

Taupo super volcano, the world's most active. And we won't get much warning when it strikes again. youtu.be/Fiq9TSKiWaw?...

I woke in the night last night to a weird humming sound, and just now saw the story in the news about it. Seems like it's been driving people in Christchurch crazy for years.

So is cocaine from Honduras the good kind and cocaine from Venezuela the bad kind? Just trying to understand Trump's logic.

My greatest fear is that these fuckers are going to get hold of that Chinese drug that keeps them alive for 150 years.

Big crash on the Southern motorway Ōtautahi. 5 cars and a motorcycle?

I spent a full day working on my section yesterday and today I'm stiff in places I didn't even know could get stiff 😣

What's really happening is the inner circle knows Trump is "not gonna get into heaven" soon. There's a fight for who gets to replace him. Vance gets the caretaker seat but he's being told his ethnic non-Christian wife is a problem. So he's gonna ditch her for a blue-eyed blond-haired fake Christian.

Politicians have abandoned us for greed.

Stand by for the US army to enter Gaza under the guise of saving people.

Struggling with social media atm. X continues to go from bad to worse, unless you're Russian or Israeli. Looked at FB today, which I do about once a year, and my god the comments are in the gutter. Just trash.

Let's see if we make it to Saturday with this peace deal intact. To my mind, only one faction would stop it.

If you thought X was bad before, you should see it now the bots are trying to defend Israel. They're obviously well funded and they're nasty.

This is fuck-face's party. Just released today, a bill to parliament on ending woke. They got a fraction of the vote at our election bit because we have MMP we are held hostage by the rabid few.

From time to time on here, I complain that New Zealand's govt are MAGA wannabes. Look at this, a govt minister in a Trumpian cap with one of the most slappable faces you'll ever see.

Please tell me we're at the bottom and we can't go any lower 😔

There's a lot of angry people in New Zealand right now. It's no surprise that the government has turned their back on the Palestinians. Our PM describes himself as "wealthy and sorted", he referred to Kiwis as "bottom-feeders", and one of our MPs said we value life too highly.

I've said time and again that the current NZ government is on the same leash as the US government. Our foreign minister's unwillingness to recognise the state of Palestine today proves it. These people wear MAGA caps, call everything woke, and are a fucking disgrace to us all.

BREAKING: Former FBI Director James Comey releases statement after being indicted. "We've known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump." "We will not live on our knees." "Fear is the tool of a tyrant. I'm not afraid." "I'm innocent."

Not to spoil your Friday, but we are on the brink of global conflict. If you're only watching MSM you wouldn't know it. Time to get prepared.

I've mourned for the New Zealand that we used to be. So I can imagine how the good and decent people in the US must be feeling.

The fact that Israel called the flotilla Hamas is all we need to know.

So Israel is just going to kill international citizens in international waters now, right?

I don't know about you lot, but I'm ready to pick up a pitch fork. I've had enough.

Afghanistan is "about to go through some things" if they don't give Bagram back to Trump.

Teapot or genie lantern?

Personally, I blame Russia.

I see there's a lot of whataboutism going on. "They're taking away freedom of speech." "What about when they made us wear a mask to protect ourselves from a deadly virus?!" You dumb fucks.

Has any other person's death ever been capitalised on to the extent that Charlie Kirk's has been?

Last week was wild.

The march towards authoritarianism in the US had broken into a jog recently. Now I wouldn't be surprised if this week it becomes a sprint.

I want to go back to 2003 when things were so bad that the Black Eyed Peas had to write a song asking where is the love?

Ok I've seen enough. They're trying to make him the new JC.

Saw a comment today that really made me think. School shootings in the US no longer have the desired impact. Assassinations do. 😱

All these international politicians speaking up about Kirk's assassination for one reason only. They don't care who he was or what he said. They just know there's always a chance it could be them.

Meanwhile, in New Zealand news today...

Violence is never the answer but getting killed doesn't automatically make you a good person.

Boy, Netanyahu sure was quick to say how much he loved Charlie.

Honestly, aside from the close up video, the most shocking, hateful posts I have read today were made from Kirk himself. I'd never seen his work before.

In the aftermath of the killing of Charlie Kirk, it's worth reading the comments. Universal condemnation but still universal "othering" too. Left vs Right, right vs wrong, them vs us.

I fully expect Russia to continue to send drones into Poland. They will try to make it the new normal.

Not easy to win that peace prize when all the boys in your gang keep attacking other countries.

I think we've reached the tipping point.

Gees, got online to an avalanche of posts on Trump's sordid, dirty secrets with Epstein. I guess it's war then.

Can we go back to him being temporarily dead?

Disappointing. Good dress rehearsal though I guess.

This seems like a lot of US naval assets to combat drug dealers. Not sure how many oil tankers?
