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

@dimsie.bsky.social I still think it's a perfectly good headline as long as you add an interrobang to the end.

@fancypants You mean like the Green Party? Or do you get your definition of "financially prudent" from the media that portrays our current governing parties as not being complete economic incompetents?

@mattblaze On the contrary - it sounds like a great start. It means the other party doesn't go into the conversation falsely believing it's a _serious_ conversation.

Wide screenshot of the RNZ website this afternoon, with my arrow added for comparison… even the automated “related stories” column is calling Luxon out on his BS now. #NZPol CC @BobLefridge

@Phil_Tanner I'd suggest that more appropriate names might be "Cope" and "Seethe".

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 […]

@rai I recommend a model with an inverter - otherwise a lower power setting just turns the power off and on in a duty cycle related to the power setting.

@dimsie.bsky.social I _think_ that statement boils down to "Taxes and entitlements are hard to understand, and MSD and IRD are terrible to deal with and get information out of. Why can't people get free tax/entitlement advice without dealing with them?" There's definitely a core of truth there […]

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.

Please read this thread before and after you hear PM Christopher Luxon say in a pre-Budget lunch speech today that the Government has no choice but to 'tighten its belt' because our debt is too high and we could be downgraded. Just. Bullshit. #nzpol

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
