In case any of you were unaware, this is the exact modus operandi that the U.S. has used to manufacture evidence for more than half a century.
Christ on a stick. The investigative organisation, ioc3.org, isn't even a real website, but redirects to BloxShield. And the person responsible for both Caden Scott, is an 18yo who was - up until very recently - a game developer. Come on RNZ maybe don't be so gullible eh.

Weird take, I guess, but I think if the police chief holds a press conference to announce he's breaking the law, he should be instantly fired for cause

NZ Post should not be run "as a business". It's a fundamental public service and every issue you have had with it, or with courier delivery, in the past 30 years is down to governments sacrificing that public service for the sake of short term cashflow

i so wonder what this coyote felt and thought as it looked at alcatraz from the shore
i've been watching the coyote on Alcatraz's progress with great interest. a week-ish ago, a coyote SWAM to Alcatraz for the first time and looked fuckin rough after the dangerous swim. but the coyote is doing fine now, gorging itself on unprepared birds & rats who are dealing with a sort of Godzilla

Yet again, in almost any other NZ government a minister telling NZers to *eat less food* to save money would have them hounded by media and pushed out of politics.
Never forget the immensely important protective role that NZ media have played in protecting these fascists from public outrage.

Puts ACT corporate donors on the hook for misleading about their supply chains and is actively against the interests of NZF fishing industry donors if you're wondering why it's not a govt bill.
National and Labour MPs are teaming up for a modern slavery bill, using a new and never-before-used rule that allows them to skip the biscuit tin for a members' bill with enough support.

You can find these on YouTube. 70s Sesame is 🐐, just absolutely wild experimental stuff. “Hey boss, what if Phil Glass did some animated music videos for us?” “Sounds good”
There are episodes of Sesame Street from the 70s and 80s that are paced like the Deer Hunter. 12 minutes of a camera pointed at a fire hydrant while children play in the water. Insane.

The fact that every right winger with influence screams "who is paying for all of this" tells you exactly how awash in cash they all are, and how much they rely on that to keep their movement afloat.
James O'Keefe says he's never seen anything so organized as the anti-ICE movement, observers--he seems to think this term is code--everywhere he goes. Who is paying for it??? he demands to know. It's like he can't even imagine people caring for one another.
