It's Daylight Savings Tonight in AoNZ Just in case you had forgotten like I had. This is not a wonderful week to be feeling timelagged but I think it's a little late to ask them to change it.

1/ *sigh* I see the media, and the prevailing rw culture, have found yet another group of people to attack. This time it's people with ADHD. I haven't seen the "documentary" and don't plan to, but I can already see some common tendancies e.g. ADHD is a myth spread by big pharma to sell medicine...

The Great ADHD Myth? review – the most controversial show of the year is here
Dr Max Pemberton isn’t uncompassionate or especially radical, but he assembles a team of medics whose stance on the condition is clear from the off. This is a documentary that will incense and offend ...

Okay, so since the govt and Labour don't seem to have a plan for ambient surveillance in the form of smart glasses, perhaps it's time to demand they be expressly banned in certain places. I'm thinking gyms, bars, swimming pools, universities, etc. Not sure how to go about this. Thoughts? #nzpol
