For me, the technology isn’t so much the issue, as much as what this unhinged version of the USA intend on using it for.

Watch: Rocket Lab blasts off on hypersonic mission for US Department of War Rocket Lab has launched its latest HASTE rocket from Virginia, deploying a scramjet-powered aircraft in a US hypersonic test mission.

This news is either unfortunately timed, or it’s a perfectly timed & sobering truth that has AotearoaNZ firmly planted on the wrong side of history. #nzpol

What no one seems to be talking about is that there *was* a nuclear accord signed in 2015, one that Iran appeared to be keeping to – and Trump tanked it in his first term, essentially because the US had negotiated and signed it during Obama's presidency.

Contrast this 🧵 with the statement put out today from the NZ Government.

The origins of the Move On orders are from Ham East National MP, Ryan Hamilton - former Hamilton City Councillor whose council colleagues are setting up bylaws of a $20,000 fine for basically being visibly homeless.

It begs the question, who's allowed to ask for money on the street and who isn't?

You know how we shut down the entire world over a viral infection…

What if we shut down the entire world over BILLIONAIRES/POVERTY/GREED/CRUELTY…

Instead? #nzpol

Just attended (begrudgingly) my first ever live football match between AFC & Melbourne City. 🙄 😴
But….omg I was so impressed with the performance, the fans, the experience and I can’t believe how supportive & infectious “THE PORT” are. Example 👇
PS; AFC won 3-0 #Life
(Yes I know who owns AFC)

It’s odd to me that Starmer is railing against the basic premise that led to the founding of the UK Labour Party back in 1900…🤔

Oh, ffs. Now I’m not gonna know if a Burger King server is being genuinely nice to me, or if they’re just taking the piss? My natural instinct will be to assume the latter, while sarcastically parroting their energy back to them. This will not end well for me. 😂🤦‍♀️
