Despite my constant fears for family & friends in the US, I cannot recommend any child move to Aotearoa New Zealand.

It’s the worst place in the OECD to be a kid, & this is just part of why.

Something I have spent far too much time & effort daydreaming about is the all-encompassing, vindicating Joy I would feel if I ever got to meet the person who invented Venetian blinds.

Punching them with all my might for their crimes, specifically.

Fuck Venetian blinds.

Tastes like Fascism
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.

The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

yeah sorry you have to sleep on the streets and don't have a house for your family, some politician needed a bridge in his electorate, his own govt was against, so took your social housing money to pay for it.

Rest in Power, Alice. @sfdirewolf.bsky.social

Your work has impacted so many lives, & that impact will not end here.

Of course not. That would expose how much they’re failing us at everything that matters.

Best just “clean up” the CBD.

‘Cause that worked so well other places, like the Brothers’ Home in Busan.

Have they considered low unemployment, a liveable wage, affordable housing and breaking overpriced supermarket duopolies?

I am Confusion.
In @seananmcguire.bsky.social’s Aftermarket Afterlife, Mary talks about “Quiet Coyote”.

I’m a Kiwi. I have no clue what the h*ck this is, nor does my New Orleanian spouse.

Beloved Seanan fans, please educate me?

I can’t drink plain water.
It has to have cordial or carbonation or something flavourful added.

I’ve put my body into shock by drinking plain water, it’s that intense.

Our tap water, growing up, was green with algae half the year, brown with silt the other half.

Cordial was used to cover it up.
(I cannot eat balony to this day.)

There isn’t a food stamp situation in Aotearoa New Zealand, but there are “Benefits”. These are paid weekly. If you have a partner, the partner gets paid half of your entitlement.

I didn’t know how poor we were growing up.
I didn’t learn the bargain hunting until my teen years.
I grew up on food stamps--not SNAP, physical paper stamps that came in a little book that Mom kept in her purse.

I am still, as an adult who pays taxes, paying the costs of those years of my life. I go to the dentist more often than anyone should have to. I have food aversions and anxieties that I would not wish on another soul.

We can be better than this. We have to be better than this.

Starving children is never okay. And as someone who has belonged to that social strata, yeah, there's fraud, because the system has been set up to make it impossible to be a part of society without it. Stinking, blood-covered teens with rotting teeth are not welcome very frequently.

If I hadn’t been following you on Twitter for years, the “…not to be condescending…” alone would have my ass signing that dotted line.

There’s an informal code of conduct here in Aotearoa - “don’t be a dick”. This complainer needs to take that to heart.
pls sign even if you aren’t a resident. numbers aré important here, y’all

I’m so fucked off with “futuristic” fix having multiple planets to habituate & STILL USING CAPITALISM.

Ain’t no fucking way we’re getting to other planets with capitalism.
Capitalists are too busy cutting off their noses so they can line their wallets to think that far ahead.

Oh, the Joys of Migrainesville while Neurospicy.

I need to Stim to regulate myself, so I can cope with the pain & shit.
But the Stimming aggravates the symptoms.
Which mean I need to do more to regulate.
…lo, a Feedback Loop.

I cannot be the only one who has asked this, but here goes:

Toby Daye Perfume Line When…??
Because there are some truly delectable scents described in the series & I need the reality of them for a recreational Sniff-Snorff ASAP.

Pretty, PRETTY please?

And the lawsuits will follow promptly. Government shutdowns give presidents no additional authority to dismiss federal workers. We’ll fight these outrageous assaults on civil servants and public services.

“Willis, Corrections Minister Mark Mitchell and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon all backed the current policy approach, regardless of the fiscal impacts.”

This government goes to such great lengths to cut off its nose in order to spite its face.
