Honestly why I have concerns working for any US company.

A Dutch worker went viral after explaining to their American boss that they have a life outside work.

We’ve published an Open Letter calling on NZ leaders to deliver risk-based AI regulation & a national oversight body. AI has huge potential, but harms (deepfakes, gendered abuse, bias) are real and rising. Read the Letter (and sign it if you agree!) #nzpol regulateai.nz

Scott Adams about to unlock the ultimate hack to "get the hell away from Black people," excited for his breakthrough

"We're going to tax corporations properly. Except US ones are exempt." So, pointless then?

Star Trek is about to leave Netflix and I have no idea what I will do to relax in the evenings

The gvt shd've bought the solar company off Blackrock as it already had $ invested & pushed renewables & electrification so we don't need oil or gas & ppl/companies wld have cheaper power. Hungary isn't sunnier than NZ.

Luxon goneburger.

I am asking #NewZealand to please check their garden shed, outbuilding or sheds for for a missing Prime Minister, last seen.. uh .. somewhere Please contact authorities if found, do not spook him, dont worry he isnt a danger unless you are an economy #nzpol

Half a Manapouri. In a month.

"Australia’s rooftop solar market climbed by 22% in the past month with the latest data revealing that 334 MW of small-scale PV capacity was installed on household and business roofs across the country in December 2025" So near, and yet so far from the minds of the clowns that govern us

Defend Greenland. Defend Europe. Defend Canada. #ArcticDefence

Mark my words, if this had happened under Labour, Simeon would have been in front of every news organisation all day every day calling for the Minister to resign.

When we say that the War on Drugs has always been a pretext for political suppression, this is exactly the kind of thing we mean. Legalizing all drugs is not a frivolous goal, it's necessary for pulling the rug out from under US imperialism (and its domestic slavery factories aka prisons)

Still no Luxon? Weird, thought he'd be back at work by now...even my local charity shops are all open again and back at it, but no word of the PM...

See a bridge, post a bridge.

Investing in renewable energy is an act of peace.

Everything Is Russiagate truly lol

@nug.monster Holy shit. H264 mkv to H265 mkv is close to a 50% file size reduction.

Trump is trying to force US oil companies to rebuild Venezuelan oil fields that are too expensive to invest in at current crude prices while a full blown energy revolution is happening with cheap solar and electrification growing exponentially. This is a dying empire shit.

The Greens continuing to be the only grown ups in parliament. This is the kind of response that should be universal. Across Aotearoa’s political parties and internationally.

Here’s the original cartoon circa 1905

Fewer ideas, that's very inspiring Diane.

Don't copy paste an Imperial response like other world "leaders" who are abandoning their independent foreign policy to cuddle up to Trump. Have some moral courage Luxon!

Australia should strike while the iron is hot and kidnap Christopher Luxon.

We're going to need a bigger Hague.

OMG 😭 Huntington's is an inherited disease that's like Alzheimers + Parkinson's all in one. NOW: "once the gene therapy has been delivered into the brain... [it] injects a piece of DNA to reprogram the neuron to become a factory for its own cure." LIFE SAVING! www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhEx...

If this doesn't come with a UNGA Uniting for Peace resolution and global condemnation then the prohibition on the use of force is finished and the UN will go the way of the League of Nations. Ask the international lawyers in your life how they are because right now I wish I weren't 10 years sober

When the Trump administration and their lackeys across the Atlantic dismiss claims that they need approval for the illegal bombing and kidnapping of another states leader because it's not a war, it's an "operation" - that's what Putin said about Ukraine. It's exactly the same.

"Why do you care about US politics?" Because our dumb cunt politicians keeps looking over at your dumb cunt politicians and going "hey, that dumb cunt stunt might work here, we should try it"

Kangaroo court in fascist Amerikkka

Also if I was a foreign diplomat I might consider getting the fuck out of a country that ignores national sovereignty in the most idiotic and childish way, but that's just me ...

Time for NZ to stand up and cut all ties with the current US Government!

There's your Nobel Peace Prize winner, btw. Hats off to everyone involved. Great job.

Lest anyone for a single moment thinks this latest coup is a somehow a dramatic breach of long-term US foreign policy.

I want Aotearoa to at a minimum suspend 5-eyes and all other military connections to the US. Australia Canada and the Uk should do so too.

*Back in my day* we required a proper government false flag event, with an elaborately rendered official story slapped over it, in order for us to get panic-herded into an illegal police state escalation. Nowadays they just declare it’s time for fascism without even bothering to do the inside job.

THIS. I'm probably being rather naive, but I'd disturbed how blithe the international establishment is being about a straight up act of war by the United States.

Americans waking up this morning...

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

Well,

I'm sure Trump will be punished exactly how Bush and Blair were.

us in new zealand need to make very clear to our government that they are not our ally, and we do not support this illegal war.

It was funny in 2004, I'm not laughing anymore Fuck the United States of America

As a Ukrainian, if you ever cared about Russia's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Ukraine, you should absolutely care about US's fascist illegal, illegitimate and unjust invasion of Venezuela. My solidarity and best wishes to all Venezuelans.

The first reaction from a political leader comes from the President of Colombia, who is calling for immediate meetings of the Organization of American States and the United Nations:

the govt needs to sanction rocketlab for assisting the US in their illegal wars.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.
