Based on the 2026 Election Protocols elections.nz/guidance-and... wrote to Election Commission regarding this despicable video, since it clearly framed candidate of a (registered) fringe conspiracy/far-right party promoting himself. I hope they investigate it, him, & party. #nzpol

"women never contributed anything to science" and then you look under the hood and it's men stealing women's ideas over and over again

Hey just a reminder that Maslow stole the idea of the hierarchy of needs from the Blackfoot people (and his female research partner) and then made it weird and rapey (women can’t be healthy unless we experience a “surrender reflex” when encountering “masculine power”).

We need to call this patriarchal violence, not family violence. ‘“rigid harmful gender norms”, including deep-seated entitlement to control a female partner, as well as colonisation, were underlying drivers of family violence in NZ’

My favourite part about the Nobels is that they trot out the “the gender bias is historical tho” line but then even in more recent Nobels, it’s still mostly men

You can fuck off any time you like, Ken.

“Māori issues are a disgrace,” said Ken Whittall, from Mt Maunganui, who said he will give his party vote to ACT and candidate vote to National. “They want to take over the country.” If the Government changed at the election, Whittall said, he would not stay in New Zealand much longer.

Ross and I noticed this the other day, but yeah - anyone noticed how many families and murder suicides are happening - and then look at the reason. Austerity kills. Austerity kills. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland/...

Experts and community leaders told the Herald the killings may reflect a rise in families wrestling with financial stress, and the failure to support and treat people with serious mental health and addiction problems.

a while back while I was in the midst of a shitty time related to my body not doing what I'd hoped it would, I saw someone suggest the question "why not me" instead of our often common response of "why me". It didn't make it any easier to deal with the situation, but did make me think a bit wider

or at least tell us the process. I had a referral to a dept in the hospital, didn't hear anything....when I finally found a way to contact them it sounded like they'd been waiting for me to call to make the appointment....if I'd know that was expected I'd have phone months before I did

Central claim is that the ChCh attack was a false flag, w/ fake livestream, staged to justify disarming New Zealanders "on the eve of COVID". Please hold space for survivors, the families of victims, & NZ's wider Muslim community. Please also report to DIA anything you may see on these lines. #nzpol

Gentle reminder to check your ableism when talking about Christa Pike. Disabled people can see you talking about how you hope she’s brain damaged and has to suffer a “fate worse than death”. We’re fighting eugenicist regimes who believe we’re “better off dead”. Don’t feed that narrative.

The condition causing your symptoms determines your risk of being gaslit by your doctor. So does your gender, age, and whether you have a mental health condition.
