LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I think the appeal of New Zealand First for many of their voters is that it's a party in NZ that allows them to feel good about their bigotry. 77613

LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 08/10/2026At this stage, you would surely have to be one dumb fuck to vote for any of the current parties in government. 56613

LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/10/2026This is Mya with her ball. A couple of things you need to know about the ball. It is a prized possession. It is NOT to be given to any human, or, if it comes into possession by a human, thrown. It can be moved around the house by Mya, who always knows where it is. 5591

LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 24/09/2026The reporting has been along the lines of "Party X denies their policy is racist" **ends article. 0210
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I don't think it will impact the election, because the racism has always been in plain sight and the media has normalised it. 1252
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026We've got a long list, but yeah he comes pretty close to the top of it. I have a visceral dislike of Shane Jones too. 141
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I think he's already moving to head a campaign against MMP isn't he? 100
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I think a lot of their high dollar donors are fairly short of morals already. Plus, their donations are effectively anonymous. 040
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Oh I think it's important. Just maybe more of a slow burn in terms of its impact on politics. Probably means the sneaky bastards get sneakier. 030
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I'm very much looking forward to reading the book. But...**taps sign** lots of people have already made up their mind about Hager, and many voters on the right dgaf about the tactics that are used to gain or retain power, imo. bsky.app/profile/lost... 4341
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 22/09/2026"Luxon didn't appear concerned" is pretty much his go-to position. www.stuff.co.nz/politics/361... 8294

LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Looking forward to Hager's book launch BUT if it is politics related I am at the point where I don't think any revelations will make a difference to how people vote. 2111
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Shrinking the economy is not good economic management, but it's the only strategy the right in NZ seem to have. 292
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 15/09/20264) Tākoketai (Black Petrel) - I just loved the photo on the BoTY website. 5) Kuaka (Bar-tailed Godwit) - Longest non-stop migration of any bird in the world. Before they fly, they nearly double their body weight. I relate - I don't need to diet, I just need to go on a really long migration. 120
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 15/09/2026My BoTY votes: 1) Ruru - on my walks by the river at night, I often hear them.Very hard to spot even if you know where they live (approximately) - there's a glade of trees I pass by that has one. 2) Kārearea - beautiful bird, I have a soft spot for predators. 3) Kahu - more common predatory bird .. 120
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 13/09/2026oh I think We will develop just fine. Richie Mo'unga looked short of game time. We need to work on our scrum, and catching the high ball. We lost the breakdown, and dropped to much ball. Most of it is just the basics and dealing with pressure. 021
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 13/09/2026<I know, I know, I'm one of the rare Kiwis on here that still cares about sportsball lol> 290
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 13/09/2026All Blacks completely outplayed today. Yes, there may have been a couple of unlucky ref decisions but we were second best in virtually every facet of the game. The score flattered the All Blacks. 3100
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 12/09/2026What the hell, did Luxon say he supported the Warriors since he was a child or something? Bloody well cursed them. 280

LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I tell you, I will be so gutted if the left lose this election. I think it may happen. Money, changes in enrolment law, not enough fire in the belly, centrist policies from Labour - while I do think L+N are different (and a Left coalition and Right coalition most definitely), not different enough. 160
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026NB: Mamdami has an approval rating in New York of around 58%. 1240
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Interesting that "Mamdami" looks like being a line of attack being run by both National and NZF. 12364
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I like winning by enough that the ref doesn't matter ;) 030
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Also in game 1 we conceded maybe 3-4 penalties on our line and I thought someone maybe deserved a yellow. 000
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026It hasn't been perfect but I don't think it's been one-sided. It's been OK. I was scratching my head a bit over Reuben Love's yellow. I thought Ardie was lucky to stay on the field in Game 1. I'd like to have seen how Ardie was injured in Game 3 again. Penalty try for that deliberate knock on. 120
LostArcNZ @lostarcnz.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Yeah concur. And, South Africa is a tough place to play, a home series may have been different. And a neutral venue (eg next World Cup) will be very interesting. Though the SA fans do my head in to be fair 110
