So @melbailey.bsky.social did a "one like = one [something]" thread of lots of cool things in her house. I think my house would be good for this so I will do it too. One like, one photo of some ridiculous-assed thing in my house. With or without a story attached, I dunno
Natalie and @foxylustygrover.bsky.social and @nzkatya.bsky.social and me need to hang because: we hate him. We really really hate him
Found on twitter. Natalie from Oamaru taking Luxon to the cleaners. That last sentence - oof.

Had an extremely nice low-effort Thanksgiving dinner and the Limpet ate the whole meal (!) and both children were very kind and funny and my generally Thanksgiving-reluctant mother had a good time
Is this what having adult children is like, because I am fully on board

There is no constitutionally legitimate scenario in which we are being de facto governed by the White House Deputy Chief of Staff using a half-dead president as his sock puppet. We went out of our way to amend the Constitution on precisely this point.

Not only is this blatantly unfair, but for a Party that doesnt believe in collective responsibility,theyre holding ALL children responsible for the actions of others...

The latter. We're committed to pay equity. We don't think the number calculated by the Nats is much use and we will have our own costing in due course.

There is a certain point in the summer where I run out of puff for cooking, and I think I have already hit that point before it's quite summer yet
Just... throw some garlic bread and a bbqed chicken leg and a salad at me every evening for the next three months, I'm good

Did Hipkins basically say "we can't commit to pay equity", or did he basically say "we don't know how much the commitment to pay equity will cost so i can't give you a number"? Because one is acceptable to me (if milquetoast) and one is not #nzpol

Whenever NZers have an option to say publicly that they don't believe in what this government is doing to Māori, there are more on the side of right than the side of wrong
- more people voted for Māori wards than against them
- more schools decided to give effect to Te Tiriti than did not

they better come out of their AGM with a long, long list of Day One repeals or I am going to become the Joker
I got so many really nice replies from Labour MPs but over a week later I can't seem to find a formal Labour Party statement about their plan to reverse the ban on puberty blockers. We are living in grim, grim times.
The people: ‘can we have pay equity?’
National: No.
Labour: No ❤️ ✨ 🌈

It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.

I hope that this doesn't just become about "Nuzzi is bad" but fosters a wider recognition that our culture of political journalism that didn't just tolerate her, but promoted and celebrated her even after the allegations were known, is rotten to the core and has been for a long time.
this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit
