Wait – are we having another flag debate? God, really? I thought the last one was probably enough for the time being.

This morning he was justifying skimping on school buses, and this afternoon he’s doing the same with already undefunded doctors. Just get rid of this prick.

If you’re going to be a compete fucking idiot, could you at least please have the decency not to also be a scum sucking shitweasel? I can handle idiots, and I can handle wankers. But idiot wankers can fuck off. I can’t count the number of things wrong with this www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...

Comrade Trump continues his streak of destroying the American empire's grip on the world, hastening the renewables transition, de-dollarizing trade, and killing the world's suicidal habit of entrusting its digital life to America's defective, enshittified tech: pluralistic.net/2026/04/20/p... 1/

Surprise!

"Look!" says Willis. "We've had a downgrade. Our approach is working!"

Ouch. Trawling through old emails looking for something and stumbled on a thread with a beautiful artist who’s no longer with us. Dammiiit!!! Fuck I really wish that artist hadn’t died.

I really do sympathise with these guys. The whole CBD feels like it’s holding its breath. And by CBD, I mean the several hundred thousand Aucklanders living and working within a few minutes of a train station.

👏 check 👏 your 👏 enrolment 👏

Congrats RNZ for publishing a story about Brooke Van Velden's new website educating children about Anzac day, without including a link or even the site's name. Let we repeat!

Short version: “what's working off shore at the moment [is] technology, defence and energy” Of which we have one out of three and it’s already price gouging the fuck out of us

The NZ Attitudes and Values survey asks people about the music they listen to, and the NZAV newsletter published a smattering of results. The 2,500 strong sample includes no fewer than 3 songs by 10CC, 2 by Aerosmith and 1 by Air Supply (All Outa Love), all of which is frankly alarming.

It really doesn’t matter what you do: drive an uber or a courier van, put out fires, teach, heal people, be a cop, flip burgers … if you work, the National led government is out to fuck you over

Just in

Can't tell you how fun it is listening to trains coming and going all day and not one of them is able to take me anywhere – they're all for testing for the next three days gaaah

What time is it when conservative mayors are calling Luxon woke for doing too much (fuck all) on storm prep?

PLEASE CHECK YOUR VOTING ENROLMENT! I did this on a whim and – guess what – I wasn't enrolled properly, *despite* having voted just fine in last year's local elections at the same address. PLEASE CHECK YOUR VOTING ENROLMENT!

All the purple LEDs are out-of-service trains

jiji sitting out the train stoppage

When things like this happen I think back just a few short years, before double tracking, before electrification, before hop cards … back then - barely even twenty years - it wasn’t even a *bad* train network. Back then I YEARNED for a bad train network. Even so … bugger.

Two major Auckland train stoppages this week - this one’s been parked outside my apartment for the last half hour

Coast FM makes it impossible to read in the GP waiting room. The ads are audio-compressed making them noticeably louder than the music. The news gives more to sport than politics. Many of the ads are voiced by my former landlord. I haven’t had coffee. Or breakfast. I’m thirsty. 😩
