This sounds like somebody who grew up rich trying to imagine what poor people sound like.

We know how cash money works FAR BETTER than you do. You might know systems like stocks & IRAs & bonds & trust funds, but we do know cash money. We know SNAP doesn’t buy EVERYTHING at the grocery store.

Simeon is a horrible choice for healthcare in any capacity from all that I've seen... I don't see how he could make any improvements on pandemic response. The nurses were screaming "hey hey, ho ho, Simeon Brown has got to go" at their strike FFS. He's not the one for this job, and yet.... 🤦🏼‍♀️

Oh FFS, the USA gets worse and worse. I'm sure this won't be good for all kinds of people.... Beyond even those listed here.

Any NZer who thinks the NZ covid response was draconian is simply advertising to the whole world how piss weak they can be

“Everything feels blurry” Children in Gaza struggle to learn after Israel’s genocide robs them of schools and homes.

At an age when she should be reading fluently, Layan still struggles with words.

CFS/ME/LongCOVID Microblog:

Update: It's taken a week for this post exertion malaise crash to clear. It was caused by having my teeth cleaned by the dentist. Yes, you read that correctly. This is the ridiculous reality of what living with this illness can be like. 🤦

Yesterday the NHS banned all under 18 prescriptions of HRT for trans young people.

This ban was justified by 10 new studies that largely stated NO EVIDENCE for under 18s HRT exists.

The study underpinning this played one particular trick.

Let's briefly look at how the NHS rigged the game 1/5

Will I ever made a post without an error in it? Probably not. 🤣

You know I'd be into it. Hugely so. Imagine all the diseases we could eradicate. 🥹

LMAO that should say months back, not mounts. 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

Haaaahahahaha my phone just gave me this video memory from about 8 mounts back.

Context: Chester was not yet fully dry from a bath and ran into the guest room. Seems he wanted to dry himself on the bed there, as this was the disarray and energy I found when I got there. 😂👇🏼

🎶Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
The battle outside ragin'
Will soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'🎶

Former Auckland executive who paid teen $1000 for sex, sentenced to 10 months home detention The court denied the man permanent name suppression, but he still cannot be named.

10 months home detention for grooming and raping a teenager.
It seems that if you're a white guy with a job and a bit of money, you can get away with sexual crimes against women and children with basically a slap on the wrist, even if you have the bad luck to be found guilty.

Pennsylvania is a freaking weird word to my brain. The more I look at it, the more incorrect it looks to me. 😆

Giant octopus attack!!

NZ Police don't know what to do about Grok child sexual abuse images... What should you do if you or your child is a victim of a Grok deepfake? This question is simple, right? Feel free to skip to the comments if you read this already in your email! Skip t...

Super shocked by this scoop - the NZ police won't tell us whether or not the CSAM and non-consensual deepfake content generated on Grok might be illegal, or even provide advice on what to do if you (or your child!) is a target. Story here: www.emilywrites.co.nz/nz-police-do... #nzpol #kikorangi

This is what peak male performance looks like

It’s a good time to chuck on a respirator mask, esp in health care settings, public transport & busy places (indoors and out). @covidactionnz.bsky.social have set up a couple of mask blocs around the country if you’re close to one and need some masks.

If it's soft, I'm down with thick. But if it's kinda hard, meh.

Politics live: Christopher Luxon responds to poll result Finance minister Nicola Willis says a Labour government would be terrible for the New Zealand economy.

Christopher Luxon is horrible in a crisis.

He is an impudent toddler who is throwing his toys at journalists for asking valid questions as the world burns.

He has no empathy and no life experience and thus can not connect with every day people.

As things get worse, so will he.

This was last updated 26 Feb because lack of government funding doesn’t allow for more frequent reporting, but you can see we’re in a new Covid wave.
Anecdotally, three separate people today mentioned they were WFH because they had it, or knew someone with it.
