They removed CD/DVD drives from PCs. -Made physical media harder to buy and use. -Removed expandable storage from phones. -Pushed us into streaming subscriptions. -Made always-online normal. -Made unlimited internet necessary. -Slowly raised the price of everything. Ownership quietly became renting.

This is SOLID reporting from Emily and every working NZ journo who's regurgitated this government's propaganda about "low attendance" or "tackling truancy" or framed the issue as Tough-Talking David Seymour vs Lazy Teacher Unions should sit down and take some goddamn notes

The President of the United States is a criminal. He SHOULD have been convicted for the crimes he led on January 6th, 2021. He WAS convicted of 34 felonies for corruption and harassment. Yet somehow, instead of facing the consequences he deserves, he’s running the government like a mob operation.

"it WILL be a catastrophic failure caused entirely by corruption." That goes for many western countries. The USA was always going to be a loser in this space, their pollies noses are firmly in the oil trough. But shame on the rest of us following their lead. I'm looking at you Australia.

I'm saddened but unsurprised by the voices in support of Roberts-Smith. He committed a war crime. We have "war crimes" to keep a lid on the violence done in war, not to justify it, to protect OUR troops and civilians. Rinehart can go fuck herself, and maybe pay some tax while she's at it. #auspol

It seems America has run on the honor system for 250 years. Then we ran out of honor. A madman is in charge and he’s surrounded by cowards. Now we find that impeachment is meaningless. The 25th amendment is meaningless. The Bill of Rights is meaningless. And the Constitution is meaningless.

The bullies have won in the US. Trump is a failed real estate developer who believes "zero sum game" and "domination" are similes for negotiation. His lieutenants are Karens and "ne'er do wells" who have been promoted well beyond their capability. ICE are high school bullies with guns and immunity.

You don't reward spiteful children with compliance. Anyway, take note of Canada. A country seriously affected by Trump and they have simply gone and made new agreements with other nations. Australia has been given a chance to set a course less dependent on the USA. We should take that opportunity.
