30 day streak on Connections! I feel as though it has been an easier run, lately, with fewer groups that have required U.S.-specific knowledge.

Luxon on breakfast just now standing outside the cordon at Mt Maunganui finishing his facile interview with the inane electioneering slogan "Fixing the basics..." - the man is completely devoid of empathy or tact.

Is this what we can expect this election year? Tax payer funded advertorials in support of the current government swamping the media? #nzpol

During lockdown we had a "Family Taskmaster" every week. One person would set the task/judge and we would have some time (usually an hour or 2) to complete it before we would all join a video chat to reveal what we had done. My profile pic is from one where we had to reproduce a famous work of art.
What's a charming memory you have from the worst period of the pandemic?

Yeah, it’s crazy how many products have milk in them that probably don’t need it.

Me too (well, almost every label). I honestly can’t imagine having to get my phone out to load some website for every imported product that isn’t labelled to our standards.

And, it seems that QR code wouldn't actually be on the packaging, but likely on the shelf that it's sold on, so you can't check anything that others have purchased easily, or easily re-check it once you've taken it home from the store. 🤬

These guys are dangerous idiots. It's tiresome enough already having to read, and re-check, the labels on everything that I eat, and now they want to have me scan a QR code to get to that information.

Denying redress to abuse in care survivors who've committed crimes is unconscionable. Essentially they're saying the Crown will only show remorse for their failings to people who don't show their damage on the outside.

This is arguing about what equipment to kit the ambulance with at the bottom of the cliff. Stop unnecessary urgency, stop accepting rubbish bills that don't clear the quality bar, and you won't end up with a firehose of outrage from a disrespected public. 🤷♀️

#nzpol Sometimes a policy is so stupid it makes you question the very fabric of reality. Decisions so fabulously, almost wantonly dumb, you wonder if we actually live in a simulation. Welcome to the world of removing Jobseeker Support for 18 & 19-year-olds. craigrenney.substack.com/p/a-small-wr...
A small wrinkle in the Jobseeker policy
The government’s recent changes to benefits feel like this: the house is on fire, and this policy is them turning off the smoke alarm and saying it’s fixed
