Post something random if you want. Or don't, nothing will be different either way, other than the curse being broken.

Dear @chrishipkins.bsky.social
My unscientific straw poll suggests this is a REALLY REALLY bad idea. Fortunately you've left yourself 'further discussion' wiggle room. If I were you, I'd have those discussions tonight and change my mind tomorrow morning.

None of us can get a job in New Zealand. If you want a job, go back to Australia, truly.

Auckland's Mayor Thinks It's Up To Central Govt To Establish Workhouses

I just can't with these people...
To our unhoused whanau, and the good citizens of Ngāruawāhia - I'm truly sorry. That colonial mentality dies hard.

• The breakdown in relations between many councils and Government is evident in Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown saying over the weekend it was up to the Government to pass laws such as a mooted 'move-on order, which would allow homeless people to be forcibly removed from the city centre. • Brown said it was the Government's responsibility to 'clean up Queen St' to generate export revenues and retail sales. He even suggested moving Auckland's homeless to Ngāruawahia because there were no convention centres, Gucci or Prada outlets there. • Brown also said there were plenty of 'freedom camping' places for Auckland's homeless and he suggested the Government withdrew benefits from people sleeping rough in city centres.

Giving people $$ to purchase their own healthcare? Gosh, where have we heard those exact same words, AoNZ?
Beware RW grifters pretending to gaf about your wellbeing.

Rick Scott * @SenRickScott Totally agree, @POTUS! I'm writing the bill right now. We must stop taxpayer money from going to insurance companies and instead give it directly to Americans in HSA-style accounts and let them buy the health care they want. This will increase competition & drive down costs. Donald J. Trump @realDonald Trump I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over. In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!

The two side doors are fixed in place. Now to put in the two sliders. And we've also realised it's safety glass so we're less likely to die if they break.

To be honest, an income of $260k would go a long way to improving my mental health.

The gap between the Toyota and the wankmobile isn't big enough to walk through let alone get a mobility aid through
#yplac
Photo of a double-cab ute (Toyota?) parked across a footpath with its bonnet out onto the road obstructing a nominal cycle lane. There's a small red Toyota parked behind the offending vehicle and the gap between them is too small to walk through, forcing pedestrians onto the road. What a cn*t.
