The deafening sound of all those chickens coming home to roost.

My favourite part about Luxon deciding not to take a free $52k/year while he's PM is that he didn't decide to stop because he thinks it was unfair. He's just sick of talking about it, and willing to give up more than a minimum wage worker is paid in a year just to not have to talk about it anymore.

Let's not get it twisted, both these things can be true :- 1) In my view, Newhub has seldom been a net positive contributor to political discourse in this country. 2) It's just announced closure is still a really bad thing. No schadenfreude to serve. www.nzherald.co.nz/business/med...

Live: Newshub set to close at end of June - staff 'gutted'
Staff are super anxious, says one source.

I don't think people understand the gravity of making librarians and teachers *criminally liable* for disseminating information. Fascist shit, from a known playbook. No one has the luxury of being surprised anymore.

Allowing new coal mines in a climate crisis isn't just madness, it is criminal.

The dewpoint in Wellington is currently 20°C. That’s a violation of local bylaws, the Geneva Convention, and quite possibly the laws of thermodynamics.

Looking at what it took to get them off the roof is, of course, easier than looking at what it took to get them ON the roof.
NZ Herald headline reading “Over 50 burgers, 100 wings and 28 pizzas: What it took to get youth off OT roofs”

Belated #TrifleClub entry for #Kikorangi Kirihimete - no pretty backdrop due to ongoing DIY and very grey weather…
A delicious trifle is held in front of a Christmas tree by a tall man wearing a Christmas t-shirt. The trifle has several distinct layers of sponge, jelly and fruit and is topped with lashings of custard, cream and crumbled meringue. 🤤

Just consider for a moment that the $3b cost blowout that decided the govt on cancelling the critical InterIslander upgrade is equivalent to the value of the tax breaks this govt will extend to landlords over 3 years. And no-one but landlords will gain from that concession

Pōneke friends, I found a very well-loved stuffed bunny in Hannah's laneway that I bet some kid is really missing. Dropped him at Golding's since it was open - pardon my taking your rabbit to the pub, please claim him if he's yours
This photograph depicts a stuffed toy rabbit held in a woman's hand.

i for one think we need to normalise saying "mostly done, just got two more issues to address" then coming back the next day with "almost finished, just three more issues to address"

"You're not at Unilever now, Mr Luxon!"
An image from a well-known scene from the tv series Shortland Street. In it a nurse is facing a doctor and saying "You're not in Guatemala now, Dr Ropata!". The image has been altered to replace the nurse's head with that of Winston Peters, and the doctor with Chris Luxon. The subtitle has been altered to read "You're not at Unilever now, Mr Luxon!".

New rule: if over a span of eleven days (and counting) you can't get three people with literally no other job to have a meeting they all know they need to have, you can never complain again that counting six hundred thousand special votes took too long.
No sign of Winston Peters in Wellington despite hopes three leaders would meet

I love these so much. The weariness in this person’s eyes is *chef’s kiss* perfection.

Excited to see what particular flavour of derangement we settle on for this platform.
