Not so quiet subversive. 'Quirky'. Theremin player. Pigeon fancier. Pocket friends. "Obstinate, headstrong girl!" I contain multitudes. Aotearoa.

NZ Labour? Oh, please—I've seen more backbone in a jellyfish soufflé and more conviction in a weather vane during a hurricane. If dithering were an Olympic sport, they'd take gold, silver, and a complimentary fruit basket.

Jesus christ. Imagine running into this guy in a dark alley.

Something I genuinely appreciate about @paleofuture.bsky.social, is how he tracks terrible politicians as bizarro human beings, whether in photos or press conferences. It's easy to see them as cartoons, but they're much scarier as people

Please play my new game WhamBam, where you actually keep score of the number of times you hear Last Christmas between 1 December and 24 December.
The problem with that Whamageddon thing is that Last Christmas is a stone cold banger and trying to avoid it proves that you don't truly understand the meaning of the season, to celebrate our Lord and Savior, Saint George Michael.

Reminder
You weren’t “high-functioning.”
You were masking.

You weren’t “coping.”
You were dissociating.

You weren’t “fine.”
You were in burnout.

They praised your performance.
But never saw the cost.

You deserved care.
Not applause.

Oft-ignored dataset - IRD's count of people by primary income source. Here's the annual change data - the hope is that the red bars (benefits) get back to zero growth - maybe next winter? The blue bars (work) could turn positive in early 2026 when we get a tinsy bit of job growth. [1/2]

What do these corporations have in common?

Netflix
Ford
Tesla
T-Mobile
Duke Energy
DISH Network
Metlife
Dominion Energy
United States Steel

In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes.

This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

Ffs. A Senior Manager that has form for this type of behaviour?? But has had no appropriate or sufficient consequences to make them change. Then, imo, it’s by design to do further harm to the people the state believe harmed the state by speaking out. 1/2 #nzpol

“But the evidence for its conclusions is there and it is comprehensive. MPs, high-level bureaucrats and Crown lawyers spent tens of millions of dollars across decades on strategies that the Royal Commission found amounted to a ‘cover-up’ of a system of abuse against children.” #nzpol 2/2

Yesterday Sir Peter Gluckman at a speech to the MacDiarmid Institute symposium used the merger of CRIs as an example of removing redundancies in NZ science. I guess these are the redundancies he meant.
Ongoing erosion of public research capabilities in Aotearoa. When orgs are forced to restructure like this without $ to pay for it, this is what happens. Very curious to know what the new management structure is and how much it costs in salaries...

With the way that politicos & media talk about trans kids, it’s easy to forget that we are talking about children & their families. Here are 5 women talking about their experiences. It’s v different from the far right rhetoric that ‘bad’ parents are forcing their kids to be trans.
Parents who once struggled to accept their trans kids share what changed their minds in new series - buff.ly/61KuVmo
