“This country missed out on me being a doctor for 30 years, and it’s because of policies made up by these shitheads that kept me uneducated, kept me unemployed, kept me without a home, kept me in prison – rather than using a fraction of that to invest in my potential.”

Here's the few places that have done OK - places where returning tourists have spent a few dollars. Some dairy places there too. Usual caveats on this data - can include some skewing head office locations etc (but has been tidied up quite a bit by the good guys at Stats). [2/2]

Change in jobs by district from peak 2023 (or 2024). Wellington gets attention but other places have had it tougher - eg those that lost anchor employers.
This is what happens when you crash your whole economy because unemployment is 'too low' in urban centres. So stupid. [1/2]

people are either unemployed, underemployed (not making enough to meet the cost of living), or living in fear of being laid off/losing their jobs and the noise is birth rates, AI, and billionaires complaining about something or other NON STOP.
It’s ridiculous.

I do not want to see those faces of those perps, I do not want to read any more about them and their depravity, I don’t want jokes about it all. Like every woman everywhere, I’m looking at the shadow world we knew about exposed: that girls & women are collateral, objects, things. Be kind to us.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

Yep, and that's why people like Chris Bishop harp on about virtue signalling. He has no principles and can't imagine anyone else having them so he always looks for ulterior motives.
They are constantly telling on themselves.

Our oversized Titirangi bach will be on the market in a week. It will be very weird to have our home of decades being delivered into letterboxes and on Trade Me. It’s been a family endeavour getting it spruced up & a reminder we’re aging as the kids take half an hour to do what takes us 2 🤣.

How depressing is it when you’re like the only department in the US government that’s trying to keep citizens alive?

Even when the PM lived in Māngere where I grew up it didn't stop the 2nd biggest betrayal of an electorate and country (1st being to Māori and Te Tiriti) in the 80s and ever since incremental steps to reckon with it were demolished in one term of aholes in power we have now.
