Yeah, not particularly happy that the NZ Breakers ANBL Basketball team has a "Lunar New Year" jersey, but refused to wear a rainbow pride progress flag on their uniform during the Pride Round.

A graphic featuring three horizontal bands. The top and bottom bands are black with white, serif-style text, while the middle band is white with black, stylized text.

Top band: The word "ABSOLUTELY" in all caps.

Middle band: The word "POOSITIVELY" in a playful, slightly irregular sans-serif font, where the letters are unevenly aligned.

Bottom band: The word "WELLINGTON" in all caps.

The overall design is a humorous play on the famous "Absolutely Positively Wellington" city slogan.

Please help fund critical whale rescue equipment for Project Jonah New Zealand.
In the wake of the most recent mass stranding of pilot whales at Farewell Spit, Project Jonah’s volunteers once again stood on the front line in harsh conditions, racing against time to save lives.

Tired tropes and racist rhetoric: How Asians became scapegoats in the rockpool row Debate around damage to delicate marine environments quickly turned ugly this month, dredging up attitudes that gave many a sense of déjà vu.

I'm so glad it's being called out. And I'm a green ocean girl, i want it protected on all accounts, but not on the back of racism.

Fuck Shame Jokes. You know who i mean. Good phone typo.

This data gives us a rare opportunity to analyse communication before, during and after a stranding, helping grow our understanding of what may be happening beneath the surface.
