Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal.

Starting "NZ First says it's tripled young members" and having a photo with three young members in leads me to an amusing statistical conclusion. newsroom.co.nz/2026/07/22/y...

I do know dom harvey. why the fuck would i want to add him to my network?

extremely funny to me that analysts whose entire job is to think about these possibilities are only now catching up to Bluesky Consensus

I just hung washing on the line, felt a little bit of drizzle and finished hanging it up anyway.

I can't say I feel bad for the idiot who just married mrbeast because well you get what you deserve. You marry a man who clearly kills and eats children and you don't get to be surprised when he kills and eats your child.

is sinead boucher firing herself for being useless trash?

This isn't just an iconic video. It's the moment Ukraine's future Commander-in-Chief broke through a Russian barricade in Mariupol in 2014 and prevented Russians from taking the city.

in reality Crampton is the economic equivalent of a chiropractor; a cultist who thinks you can solve anything by cracking its spine (which for him is "just add more neoliberal pixie dust to any given economic or social problem")

utterly unsurprising that eric "children should be allowed to smoke, and smoking is good for you" crampton is all in on this.

yeah that's absolutely what a man would say. i know because i am one.

Well fck my old boots. Building consents are slower and getting more expensive because our stupid govt has opened them up to the private sector. #nzpol Council warns of 'tipping point' for building consent costs share.google/1XaW9wvMVJRv...

"If both the Red Team and the Blue Team are on board with this great Green idea, then what are they waiting for?" 14 July 2026 @maramadavidson.bsky.social @greens.org.nz #nzpol

To anyone who follows me, or doesn’t, please contribute to @richardkadrey.bsky.social ‘s extremely urgent new Go FundMe. His cat’s depending on you too. I don’t know a harder-working writer, and what he produces is always wonderful. Please re-skeet!

The Dutch equivalent of Cass, (except it’s a proper scientific review not pseudoscientific drivel like Cass) has wholeheartedly endorsed puberty-blockers and full gender affirming care for young trans people.

"step 4 if i was starting over i'd just pay off my mortgage faster" oh? and what if you weren't able to get a mortgage because you're stuck in a part time minimum wage job? None of this is useful advice because *you don't know what it's like to start at the bottom*

is... is this a woman wearing a thin blue line flag as a cape... and rocking out to killing in the name

hands up if you're surprised that andrew tate is a pedophile. nobody? good, you've been paying attention.

Oh forced labor is bad? Weird then that it is *still* enshrined in the constitution. "Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗺𝗲, whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction."

is the sentence harsh? yes absolutely. but there's no fucking question he did it, he admitted to it, and I'm sorry, but "he didn't know stealing somebody elses' shit from the security tray is illegal" is farcical.

i can't remember 11 years ago because it was 30 years ago, but i can definitely tell we're currently in the solar max period based simply on the number of news stories about aurora.

this seems like a crime.

it is quite chilly this morning.

lmfao i knew exactly what was coming

i'm all for taking money away from the pentagon, it's just a shame that the bloodythirsty psychopathic rapist pete hegseth decided that instead he'd rather kill brown people.

i just hope compensation for this video included a really damn good foot massage after

Amazing things happening at RNZ

AlphaPhoenix videos are always cool and interesting to watch.

Here you go, one of my most referenced lights - Tiritiri Matangi light and its characteristics. (So useful I remember it flashes every 15 secs - don’t have to look it up) Quirky fact: it used to be visible from 20+ NM but the residents along Mission Bay complained so it was de-rated to 18 NM.

“tech interests are insidious and they’re everywhere” Almost like there's a need for actual regulation, eh? www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/politics/...

Could Excel be conscious? We surveyed more than Jan 1 1900 people to find out.

i think it's important to frame it as I am NOT agreeing with MTG, because she's an insane nazi. She agrees with ME, because I'm on the right side.

November 7, #nzpol!!

It's a very stupid thing to be annoyed by but holding lapel mics as if they're just tiny handheld mics drives me fucking crazy. Use it normally you idiot!

is interview with a vampire any good or is it bad. only statements of objective fact are useful as a response please.

I cross-referenced my database of candidates against credible voter fraud cases. GOP politicians are implicated at 50x–38,000x the general public's rate. Yet even if every American voted with the integrity of a GOP candidate, it still wouldn't come close to justifying making voting one iota harder.

it's too warm to leave my hoody on but too chilly to take it off (i'm not walking 5 feet to select a lighter hoody)

I lost a tooth I didn't have to lose. New Zealand gives every child free dental care, then abandons them at 18. Cost stops around 1.6 million adults from getting the care they need, and we have the highest unmet dental need in the developed world. Teeth aren't a luxury. They're health. #nzpol

love being hit by a wave of late afternoon malaise.

imagine if you got lost in the backrooms, got bored for a bit and for some reason sat down to jerk off. congrats just doing that means there's now a jerkoff monster in the backrooms.

googling larry and it seems all he does is write letters about how mad he is that LGBT+ people exist. pathetic.

I never recommend my older brother's business to people because he doesn't give me a family discount so why should I, but now I've discovered he's got fucking openclaw running on his work computers I absolutely won't recommend people go to his business.

I kill my team-mate who attacks Jimothy.

the only good national party member is an ex national party member who hates them.

This petition is closing soon so it can be delivered to parliament before select committee starts - SURELY we can hit 27k before it closes, right?!

Max Landis is the cautionary tale of having the ultimate helicopter parent

Camilla Belich seeks leave for her members bill on affirmative consent to be introduced, given that national wants to run on it. Of course, leave is denied, because national are hypocritical scum. #nzqt

i'm told that this is a pretty good piece so it seems like a good time to mention i am looking for a new line of work and my blog is a writing portfolio, if anybody is looking to hire a writer.
