The Government of New Zealand has made a new tourism ad and it's surprsingly honest and informative!

Why are we still paying Jared Leto to do things, I thought we learned our lesson about that

What tiny morsel of peace has this trash bag of a human ever given anyone?

I remember when a protester punched the co-leader of the Greens in the face.

Hana Maipi-Clarke had her home broken into by a political stalker.

I recall VFF protesting outside Clarke's parents' home while Jacinda was on holiday.

I dont remember hearing about National's concerns back then??

Nicola Willis urges Greens to 'call off' protesters outside Winston Peters' home Senior government ministers are accusing the Greens of condoning "indecency" after a window at the Foreign Minister's house was smashed.

Remember how Winston Peters harrassed non-binary, Green MP, Benjamin Doyle; questioning their sexuality; hinting at child abuse; encouraging the baying unhinged mob to threaten them online?

Well, Karma just came calling for Mr Peters...

Predictable politics is predictable.

"Luxon ... 'It's lovely his sentiment and his words last night, but... he voted against the bill that actually is designed to stop this stuff from happening.'"

this feels like an insanely wild abuse of power by an elected official on a private citizen

And they should relocate around the country for a seasonal job that may or may not exist... And when that seasonal job ends... THEN WHAT CHRIS?!

Stuff screenshot, with highlighted excerpt: “If you want a job, you go where the jobs are,” [Luxon] said.

What a staggering arrogant and tone deaf thing to say.

The approximate status quo now is that parents let their adult-teens stay at home largely rent free while they start to establish their lives.

Now the expectation is that we support them moving around the country looking for jobs?!

wait it's possible to move from pilot studies to permanent implementation of basic income? please tell everyone except Andrew Yang about this

Every time Luxon speaks he just fills me with rage. If you ban protesting “near residences” you’re banning protesting outside of schools, MP offices (cause yes my local one is opposite suburban housing), and many other legitimate places. He’s just such a bellend.

How much are your insurance premiums going up in 2026?

Just when we need her most, @toriamos.bsky.social announces a new album and world tour.

Finally some good fucking news.

Adult clothes. Adult food. Adult priced transport. Adult everything!

"calling parents to accountability" sounds like we're all a bunch of wastrels because we can't feed four adults (or more) on two adults' shitty wages. Infuriating #nzpol

The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.

​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Listen. If you didn't want to be seen as the Twitter escape pod, you shouldn't have deliberately fostered a community of people so united by their contempt for arbitrary authority and love of absolute free speech that they were willing to abandon a platform they'd been using for 15 years

I will log off forever before I sign on to Mastadon

Happy birth!

Not seen the Godfather or The Sopranos and never finished Breaking Bad (but I googled the ending)

related, when the president is invading our own country, waging war on our own people, i don't wanna see dems give the GOP shit they ask for, don't wanna hear shit bout 'we hope our friends across the aisle will work with us on bipartisan solutions to the problems they cause' i don't want none of it

screenshot reads: Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness (30th Anniversary Edition)

haha 30th what now

Bravo.

girl shut the fuck up, millennials didn't say that shit

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

Not least of which because everyone knows Ass Clowns come from an academy, not a factory
