To heal our divided nation I propose splitting Game of the Year awards into two categories:

- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy
- Game of the Year That’s Some Gay Bullshit Indie Meditation on Grief or Whatever

"NZ supports a two state solution in which we recognise only one state" is exactly the same old, dumb as fuck logic we've come to expect from this current government.

People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.

I can't help but note that without Wikipedia kids in the UK will probably just jump straight to genAI for researching anything if they aren't already and this is obviously bad

The UK is about to ban access to Wikipedia, just remember this bill was originally pitched as a means to protect kids from accessing porn.

Maxar collected images of before / after damage to Russian aircraft as a result of Operation Spiderweb.

This is not a comprehensive view of the damage. Cloud cover obscured several of the other Russian airbases that were reportedly also struck by drones.

The state of Utah voted to ban pride flags so Salt Lake City Council decided to make official city flags that incorporate the progress pride, Juneteenth, and transgender flags so they can fly them without breaking state law
If approved, SLC would have 4 flag designs. It's current, as well as one tied to Progress Pride, Juneteenth and Transgender designs as seen here #utpol:

Please sign this petition if you support my right to exist as a woman.

I’d love to see it hit 25,000 signatures and beat the Family First petition.
This petition to stop NZ First's stupid sex definitions bill has been open for nearly a week and has 1.2k signatures

The hate group's petition that spawned this bill took four months to get 2.2k signatures

Let's show just how little hate there is

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.

A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

All I ask of my fellow lefties is that we don't tear each other apart for our preferred candidates.

STV exists for a reason.

There are some really awful candidates who will benefit from us infighting in public.
I suspect that Andrew Little entering the race actually helps Tory Whanau's candidacy. It means she isn't the sole target of attacks from the right, and it means she can run to Little's left, positioning herself as the change/transformation candidate despite being the incumbent.

I'm old enough to remember when "Romney want to kill Big Bird" was a campaign killing headline.

What a much sadder world we live in now.
