This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

Apart from everything else that’s wrong with the govt’s continued degradation of the original school lunch programme & its range of objectives, note that David “Attendance is paramount” Seymour has now done away with the objective of ‘providing healthy lunches to promote school attendance’.

as we mark 18 years since Closing the Gap was launched with the National Apology to Stolen Generations and their Descendants, know that police routinely target and brutalise Aboriginal people including children and then charge them with offensive behaviour, resist arrest, and assault police.

The Māori Seats in parliament are for Māori people. They are a Tiriti-based right not a race-based right.

This is why at Rātana Pā we launched a member's bill to entrench Māori seats - the bare minimum for protect dedicated Māori voice in our parliament.

Anti-trans hate is an industry. Not a movement, not a moral concern, not an organic uprising of worried parents — an industry, deliberately constructed, lavishly funded, & strategically deployed to protect the interests of the powerful men who finance it

This media line is so fucked because it communicates to the voter that TPM policies are bad without interrogating them. They’ve done it with the Greens for decades too but TPM is the new bad guy. Framing the choice as a controversial one without giving the voter room to assess if they think that.

There is no ceasefire in Gaza, as far as Israel is concerned. But it’s a great way to get most of the world’s media to look elsewhere while the killings continue.
Israel has violated the United States-brokered “ceasefire” at least 1,520 times since it came into effect on October 10, 2025. At least 581 people have been murdered and 1,553 wounded by Israel since that date. These figures do not include the starved and those left medically untreated.
Several others injured in attack on building sheltering displaced people as Israel continues to violate 'ceasefire'.

So these dipshits won't fund a *pair* of ferry terminals that'd get used several times a day, but will fund an LNG terminal that *might* get used once in a blue moon?

One terminal, for the same price as two, and with zero (0) ferries?

“In New Zealand, X holds just over 6% of the social media market, so it’s now a platform with barely a sliver of reach.”

Not even wide use by the NZ public, so definitely no good reason for government agencies or politicians to be on a CSAM and racism-spewing site.

PSC should get agencies off it.
Excellent article from Andrea Vance today - few quotes

"There is a weak argument (usually put forward by white men, those least likely to suffer abuse online) that staying on X somehow moderates the awful. You can’t dilute a cesspool."

one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it
Just because good news is worth celebrating:

There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection.

HIV has, effectively, a vaccination.

We found a 4th egg in #kakapo Waikawa's nest yesterday and found it was fertile. Waikawa has maintained her incredible 100% fertility record: 5 clutches of 4 fertile eggs in 4 breeding seasons. That's unmatched by any other kākāpō. #kakapo2026 #conservation #birds

IT'S FEBRUARY 2026.

THE RAIL ENABLED HYUNDAI FERRIES FOR I REX WERE MEANT TO ARRIVE BY NOW.

Instead we have no rail enabled ferries, the two we have are clunky as fuck, and there will be no replacement ferries until 2029 at the earliest.

So the COC has completely defunded health & Brown is sending a stern letter to Health NZ to meet waiting list targets because it's unacceptable. Could the media please ask him if they are going to fund health properly and let hospitals hire? Nope just going to let him blame hospitals instead. OMG
