The "private" account for friends and relatives of David Peetz (to the extent that anything here is "private" - ha!). Stuff I'd formerly put on my Facebook page.

For my (much more interesting to most) public account, go to @davidpeetz.bsky.social
A few people gathered in Brisbane to share their thoughts on the behavior of, for many, a former friend.

What an honour. The show ended with a special appearance by the man who is to law and order what Mount Vesuvius was to a calm spring afternoon.

It turns out that State Street Global Advisors, Vanguard Group and Blackrock Fund Advisors were three of the five biggest shareholders in Coles, as well as simultaneously being three of the five biggest shareholders in Woolworths.

They had an ad.

For some odd reason, the party advocating nuclear power didn't say much about it during the election campaign.

If only some neo-Nazis had used it to disrupt a sombre public event, we might have heard more.

So Ab Scan illuminated the case for nuclear energy.

Our first song last Friday at Foco Nuevo: Billionaires. We were joined by several members of the BCUC, who had sung before us on the program that night.

"Hey, Peetz is in the news!"

"Really? What are they saying?"

"Dope."

"Oh. Not because of the bulldogs connection, I hope?"

"Uh, no."

More red knots in breeding plumage
April 1, 2025 at 1:27 AM
Yesterday we were at Pukorokoro tidal wetlands at Miranda. Saw these red knots (one in breeding plumage) amongst many other birds. Met a lovely man, Keith, at the shorebird centre.

Then last night it was featured on Endangered Species Aotearoa on TVNZ. With Keith!

There would obviously be no need for any of this sophistry if what Musk and DOGE were doing was above board.
With Gleason in place, Musk would be potentially shielded from some legal responsibility and questions about conflicts, experts say.

One person who has been in meetings with Gleason said, “I get the sense that Amy is in the role of scapegoat.”
Who’s Running the DOGE Wrecking Machine: The World’s Richest Man or a Little-Known Bureaucrat?
Insiders tell ProPublica that Amy Gleason is only in charge on paper, while Musk’s top lieutenants really run DOGE. One person who has been in meetings with Gleason described her as having “little to…

Not just a boycott, it's also a personal safety issue.
Boycott the USA
This story is horrific and terrifying. Then, near the end, this:

"The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit."
