I really hope once the election is over, there’s some good quality research into the campaigns because the infiltration of bots, the use of bs, the normalised extremism on msm and impacts of astroturfing and money, need to be looked at to see how we fucked up the system so badly.

Pls don't call them the “cornell 7," they're the 7 rapists + 50 more rapists in the group chat. It sounds too much like a boy band.

The name was coined to make it seem like they were wrongfully accused like the exonerated 5.

I bought a six-pack of donuts when a guy next to me said, "You shouldn't eat donuts." I replied, "My grandparents parents lived to be 100." He asked, "Did they eat donuts?" I shot back, "No, they minded their own fkn business."

A lot of people in AoNZ would have had only 2 or 3 covid vaxs b4 omicron hit us. Kids barely finished getting theirs. Could help explain why we still ended up with lots of people with long covid. No mass death, but this is also a huge public health problem that we continue to ignore #nzpol

It's critical to remember we have NO civics education in New Zealand. Ppl do not necessarily know how MMP works, how a coalition works, or how to best make their vote reflect their values The more you can make talking about politics normal and chill, the more ppl feel they're allowed to be curious

Possibly a similar pattern is emerging in the data for Australia (although due to antipodean seasons, we are more likely to say "just my alergies"). Here's all of "F81 Specific developmental disorders of scholastic skills", for the 20-59 age group.

New Zealand COVID weekly update: 30 September 2026 21 September to 27 September 2026: 🔹New cases: 78 (+36.8%)⚠️ 🔹Deaths: (data removed from dashboard) 8 September to 14 September 2026: 🔸Hospitalisations: 10 (-9.0%) Source: healthnz.govt.nz/about-us/hea...
A screenshot of a Health New Zealand (Te Whatu Ora) COVID-19 reporting dashboard generated in Microsoft Power BI. The dashboard is current "As at Sunday, September 27, 2026."
The main section, titled OVERALL COUNTS, features a large line graph displaying cases and a 7-day rolling average from 2020 through late 2026. The graph shows a massive, sharp spike in early 2022, followed by a smaller spike in late 2022, a third minor wave in mid-2023, and a long, low, flat baseline extending through 2024, 2025, and 2026.
To the left of the graph, a CONTENTS sidebar contains vertical navigation buttons labelled Age, Ethnicity, District, Deprivation, and Definitions. Above the graph, a REPORT TYPE dropdown menu is set to "Cases."
In the top right corner, three KPI metric cards display key statistics:
•	2.7M Reported Total since 01-01-20
•	296 Reported Last 30 Days (29-08-26 to 27-09-26)
•	78 Reported Last 7 Days (21-09-26 to 27-09-26)
The bottom of the interface shows standard Power BI navigation controls indicating page "1 of 6" and a zoom slider set to 62%.
