This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

an MP pushing for this is literally the science minister, Shane Reti (he's in the district the road would service, obviously). Any journo can quote me: Chris Luxon is an idiot if he thinks the country needs a single road more than it needs an entire science establishment. Reti too. #nzpol

Pretty sure that when you have giant frogs everywhere, God is very disappointed in how you are treating immigrants.

“I really want people to know that no one is immune to this, anyone can get long Covid. I didn't think it would happen to me.” Read it and weep:

Offered rest home care at 24: the lonely plight of young Kiwis with long Covid
A group of young Kiwis prove what international studies show: that long Covid has a particularly debilitating effect on young people. But how much medical support is there for them?

I was completely unprepared for the threat posed by the Antifa super soldiers.
Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

What is sticking in the craw of my mind: I can remember not so very long ago listening to a pundit on RNZ talking about how the unemployment rate in NZ was too low. And that was a problem. And now the govt is blaming people for the unemployment they then engineered. The economy is FICTIONAL. #nzpol

The extravagant investment in data centres shows that governments and businesses can absolutely invest in housing, but evidently only for Generative AI.

No Nicola, call the dogs off does NOT originate in Shakespeare. Regardless, some of Shakespeare just shouldn’t be used now In political discourse. I give you “an old black ram is tupping your white ewe“ (Othello) - Shakespeare isn’t a get out of jail free card for slurs and insults.

I preferred it when Prime Ministers believed things like every person deserved “someone to love, somewhere to live, something to do, and something to hope for”, and acted on those beliefs.

Buried in the detail about reducing earthquake strengthening is the removal of requirements for disabled access and fire safety. You know who does that? Sociopaths.

Looks like a good time in the news cycle to tackle three big myths 🧵
❌ NZ pension costs are an unsustainable burden ❌
Seriously, no, for lots of reasons.
1. Our current Govt spending on pensions is low compared to most other advanced economies. And... [1/n]

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

And now I'm just spelunking around and here's this Facebook post by Kaleb Horton from September 2017. It was three months after MTV dumped its freelancers. I'm sure it would have been a piece there; instead he posted this on FB just to have it written out: Toys 'R' Us as societal microcosm.
