Here's a question - we refer to Chris Hipkins as "Chippy", but why don't we refer to Chris Luxon as "Clucks"? #nzpol

Fucking "app culture" drives me crazy. I got asked to install a mobile app just to look at the itinerary and accommodation information for a trip I'm going on. Why isn't it just a web page? So obviously I said "fuck that noise, hold my beer", reverse-engineered the app, and re-implemented it […]

Boycotting Green Day after they insulted the MAGA agenda. Punk rock should NOT be political. Punk rock is about and has ALWAYS been about the following: -respecting cops. -upholding the patriarchy. -saluting the flag, standing for the national anthem, and unconditionally supporting the military.

"Finance Minister Nicola Willis said about 8700 jobs would be gone by mid-2029 - returning the public sector to the equivalent of about 1 percent of the population, which it had been historically" ref RNZ, 20 may 2026 #nzpol Except that's not true.

Luxon hasn't got the numbers. No one else in National has the numbers. There's no numbers in our bank accounts. The fuel stock numbers are getting smaller and smaller. The only place that seems to have all the numbers is the price at checkout. #nzpol

How’s that ferry procurement going?? #nzpol (This was in my inbox today)

This is an urgent heads-up regarding
Cook Strait ferry travel over the coming months.

From 22 June through to 25
September, Interislander will be operating with just one vessel, resulting in critically limited capacity across the network. Available sailings are expected to fill extremely quickly, with freight being prioritised, leaving very little space for passenger and vehicle bookings.

If you have any planned inter-island travel during this period, you need to secure your crossing immediately.
Delaying your booking is highly likely to result in missing out altogether.

All this age indication in the OS law stuff from places like California makes me think that it could be moderately cool if done right for the user. Imagine being able to lie to most websites about your age so they have to treat your data as belonging to a minor. Yes, if treated as a legitimate […]

Now that Trump supports releasing the Epstein files, which are in the custody of the branch of government he controls, he doesn't need a congressional vote. He can just release them. Perhaps he didn't understand this.

Labour's problem is that they have no vision, no comprehensive plan. They have a series of individual policies that are meant to, in effect, buy votes. These policies can't be justified in context, because there is no context. So they all need to be weak to be appealing. The net effect is […]
