One day I'm going to be sitting in the room as we talk about a royal inquiry because someone - or multiple someones - have had the worst happen to them because of the path we are going down and I WISH this was an exaggeration.
One of the keynotes at AusPATH was Rodney Croome, longtime lutruwita activist, who had a similar but more positive imagining: imagine, one day, a state apology for the harms trans and non-binary people have faced at their hand, for the generations of trauma inflicted on us

The "culture wars" obsessed party in parliament is not the Greens, it's New Zealand First, who's members put forward bills to fine trans people for using public toilets while propping up a government that has presided over a worsening cost of living crisis and a rise in unemployment

In New Zealand your school for unique learners only gets unique and targeted funding if it’s one of David Seymour’s pet charter school, apparently.
Stanford said it herself; Hagley is the only School in the country that qualifies for this part-time student fund. They offer a kind of education that is unique and gets incredible results for a wide range of learners. and what's their reward? Funding cuts. 😡😡

On Friday the Greens provided journalists a ‘prebuttal’ of the PM’s forthcoming speech. Today I feel we deserve some kind of prize (I mean, not the Nobel) for correctly predicting about 90% of the content, betting it would continue the relentless pursuit of the interests of the wealthy and sorted

Gals is it too spicy to point out that the major parties insisting Nothing Can Be Done So Why Bother is effectively voter suppression, and it's particularly dangerous because the far right *don't care and will still turn out for hate and bigotry* while the left are bullied to be more moderate?
Lads is it good when the two major parties are making near identical ideological frames for the upcoming election, based around no promises, no hope, managerialism forever.

Once again Shane Jones pretends to care about the environment if he can use the issue to blame others & rely on media not querying his two-faced stance. Media let him spout his racist, anti-immigrant rhetoric, too. They’re doing a profound disservice by failing to confront him on any of it🧵

So they're going to build a little prison at the hospital? In a country where building a hospital appears to be almost impossible. So instead they're building a prison, which can always be afforded.
The only reason that Corrections is starting an absurd trial of hospital hubs for incarcerated people sent to hospital is because Corrections continues to deny high-quality healthcare to incarcerated people inside prison. www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...
Corrections to trial 'hospital hub', current model of hospital escorts 'no longer fit-for-purpose'
It comes after a prisoner was on the run for more than a week after escaping while in a hospital escort in Auckland.

you're not supporting artists by paying for spotify.
In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
