I am painting a book case! I have never done anything like this before. It’s not terrible. Listening to Archgoat very loud helps, especially with the sanding

www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic... Well, fuck. My hunch is by focusing on the awful Treaty Principles Bill we let them get away with what they were after all along. Not a good day to be a person in Aotearoa/NZ as we lurch even further to the far right
Controversial Regulatory Standards Bill passes third reading
The bill got the backing of the coalition parties

Excellent! As a gig worker myself I am excited about this. Also: unions. Last year I was a contractor and no union would have me.
"Uber drivers' Supreme Court decision could collapse gig economy, business groups say"

Take note; we could all need this soon enough
“Short bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, said [Whitney Hu, a community activist and organizer with South Brooklyn Mutual Aid], ‘you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street.’”
