How did it go? Did you hook into my Spotify playlists?

If the logic that led to National staking a 2 million house framework was relevant then, it's relevant now. This is the govt moving from a principled stand to a politically expedient one scared of finally losing those conservative seats in Auckland.

I’m not calling for violence against Tamaki and his thugs (they’d probably welcome the chance to retaliate), but I’m all for a strong turnout to Tamaki’s divisive march against immigration January 31. I’ve got too much on to organise, I’ll def be there. www.nzherald.co.nz/world/minnea...

a few years ago social media said they cant ban white supremacists bc it would mean banning GOP politicians and I think that's a pretty good microcosm of how the media in general has handled the mainstreaming of race hatred that has led to numerous mass shootings

If the Trump administration was remotely competent (which it sometimes is), then organising a misrepresented charity fraud scandal, followed by Trump’s Brownshirt invasion of the state, ending in the killing of an innocent woman, leading to a martial law declaration…

The New Zealand Election Study data for the 2023 general election is now out, and available publicly at dataverse. I have remade my Treaty graph, replacing 2020 with 2023. The long term trend towards Toitū Te Tiriti is unchanged.

The same colours is the same age group with 21 years of change. Different colours are people of different ages at the same point in time.

As cities heat up in an ever-warming world, Green Infrastructure becomes ever more important to cool cities, its people, and the fauna that reside in them

Temperatures in an urban setting
50C+ on hard surfaces
32C on green surfaces like grass with no shade
27C on green and hard surfaces in the shade

Colombian City cuts temperatures by 2C by planting Green Corridors

Nature based solutions including
Cost Effective and Adaptable
Climate Adaptation and Mitigation
Natural Systems for urban challenges
Community Involvement
Co Benefits for people and planet

3-30-300 rule
3 large trees should be seen from home, work, and parks
30% urban tree canopy cover

I like this little story because it illustrates how Govt accounting works. There is no bank account full of cash collected. Govt issues liabilities (cash, bonds, NZUs), which become our assets, then Govt tax those assets out of the economy (destroying our assets). [Ends]

wild to me to have no agenda to grow a tanking economy other than tax cuts to landlords and businesses, make it harder to get a benefit, make active choices that punish people struggling, and then create instant $1000 fines for shoplifting. shit is vile. just say you hate the poors and be honest.

You have only three days left to make a submission on the Regulatory Standards Bill. Let’s bury it together, just like we did the Treaty Principles bill. We've made it easy: greenpeace.nz/gpv4ob

The coat NZ coat of arms according to the regulatory standards bill. A cartoon. One person stands with a fonterra flag on the left of the shield, with David Seymour on the right holding the regulatory standards bill. the shild is a montage of polluted was, oil spills, dead wildlife and over fishing.
