Once again, I twig how important stories are. How they frame an understanding of joys and horrors & help us process the world out there inside our heads/hearts. Yes, they can do so in a terrible way. But they’re there for us to use for good too. Bless Kirby, who wrote so much so well about fascism.

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

Death threats are more than just trolls and keyboard warriors - they seek to make people smaller, make them afraid to speak their values, and push them out of politics altogether They cost us time and money, and the donations are already stacked against us. It's time for us to have a real democracy

Your reminder that agriculture accounts for roughly 6% of NZ's GDP & yet 53% of New Zealand's gross greenhouse gas emissions. I bloody love our farmers, but some of them don't half mind being beneficiaries of Govt money at times.
