If you have a dairy that got ramraided six times by the same kids and then they turned up one day outside asking everyone to contribute to “help make the dairy good again” then you’ll know what it feels like to hear National pledge to make our super savings as good as Australia’s

Sorry you had to wait 10 months for your cancer surgery – a politician needed to save 10 minutes getting to the airport.
$4 BILLION to save 'up to 10 minutes' during peak traffic. Fucking hell - imagine what that $4B could do for housing, education, health, etc, in Aotearoa.

Rather telling that NZ Luxon and Upston announce $6 Million towards possible Michelin stars for Kiwi restaurants while respected Lifeline cuts Mental Health services due to $2 Million funding shortfall.

Priorities.

Lifeline to cut operations if funding shortfall not plugged
A mental health support service says it will have to reduce its operations if it cannot plug a $2 million shortfall.

This is blatant political interference in rge New Zealand Curriculum that shouldn't be tolerated.
Education professionals should be deciding what is in the NZ Curriculum, not politicians from 8% parties pandering to the worst of NZ society to the detriment of our students.

Remember folks. The original bluesky ethos by us bluesky elders (apparently I count?) is block and move on.

Don't quote dunk, don't pick fights.
Block, and move on.

This is what made this site unpalatable to the right early on, and we can continue to make it unpalatable to them.

People always think these regimes need actual strong leaders with a plan when in reality all of them are just a gaggle of power hungry men constantly trying to outdo each other who make it up as they go, loosely held together by a shared hate for everyone that isn‘t them

Hey #NZ #Kikorangi, if you haven’t already checked my art out, I would love new friends and appreciators of my work rn (and maybe some sales).

I hate to ask so directly but things are Not Fun for small businesses at the moment.
Just had to refund $500 worth of orders due to the new US legislations and I feel sick 😭

Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:

“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”

Israel just killed him.
