Auckland drivers who work for Waste Management go from job security, guaranteed hours, minimum wage protections, holidays, KiwiSaver contributions, a union and the right to bargain collectively... to contractors with no job protection or work rights and massive financial debt to the company. #nzpol

Waste Management makes drivers buy their own rubbish truck - and lose their work rights."

this one is a top contender for me
an image shows a “verify you are human” challenge with a warning sign for a stoplight. google’s ai incorrectly asks “select all squares with traffic lights”. 
original poster: “the machine refused to recognize my humanity until i professed to believe that a sign painted to look like a traffic light is indeed a traffic light.”

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

So i bought this cute little mechanical keyboard that makes very satisfying clickety-clackity noises when i type. And I'm insanely pleased that i figured out how to turn off the obnoxious multicolored backlighting behind the keys.
Charming and slightly retro-80s looking computer keyboard with mainly off- white keys but function keys in a dusty sky blue and muted sage greenA view of the keyboard on my desk,  with a laptop and assorted desktop items. You can see how satisfyingly chunky the keyboard is

Three panel comic. Panel 1: on the set of the Jerry Springer show, a man sits in a chair. Jerry signals off-stage and says, “we have with us: your ancestor who crawled out of the ocean 375 million years ago!” Panel 2: the live studio audience is booing. Panel 3: security attempts to break up a fight between the man on stage, and his ancestor, a tiktaalik.

In an election this tight, every vote matters But National changed the rules that always allowed Kiwis to register in a relaxed way in the 2 weeks prior to election This was voter suppression It is deeply undemocratic- potentially cutting 175,000 voters Get registered vote.nz/enrolling/en...

A customer just tried to use an employee discount code that ChatGPT gave her. I work at a high-end clothing store and clocked in to my manager telling me about the most unhinged interaction from yesterday. A woman walked in asking if she could use a 40% off code she got online. We don't have any sales running, so my manager looks at the screen and realizes ChatGPT straight up handed this woman a real employee's internal ID number.

Even though she didn't pay rent, you cannot visit a tenant without written notice. Also if he was planning on evicting her, he also would need to provide written notice, and if she doesn't move out he should've called the cops, at no point should he be visiting her apartment without notice

What these means is that, for example, Stage 1 of surface light rail between Auckland City Centre and Mt Roskill, about 9km, 'costs' $2.25billion in the Greens policy, but would be $0.9billion if it were $100m per km. Of course, the first line will be most expensive, but you get the point!

Greens light rail plans should be much cheaper than in their policy document They've used the top end of costs identified in the Infrastructure Commissions work (95th percentile at $250m per km) Whereas 75% of surface light rail projects are $100m per km or under. #nzpol

The people who need to be pressured to leave relationships are abusers, not the victims who they entrap. The main message shouldn’t be “leave relationships that are controlling” (which focuses on a victim’s behavior) but “leave relationships you can’t maintain without being controlling.”

i think about this quote from blackshirts and reds by parenti like twice a week
Reforms that advance the conditions of life for the general public are not as materially intractable or as dependent on capital resources as we have been led to believe. There is no great mystery to building a health clinic, or carrying out programs for food rationing, land redistribution, literacy, jobs, and housing. Such tasks are well within the capacity of any state—if there is the political will and a mobilization of popular class power.
