He was compassionate and humble. He cared deeply about immigrants, families suffering in war zones, the poor, those of other faiths and the LGBTQ+ community. He did not condemn or judge but urged us to love and care for each other.
He was the best Pope of my life time.
Thank you Pope Francis .

Yes, the captain intentionally piloted the ship into a huge iceberg, cracking the vessel like an egg.
But the officers insist we'll all greatly benefit from an invigorating midnight swim through Arctic waters.

We're Living Brave New World, Not 1984
Orwell feared those who would ban books. Huxley feared that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Huxley's prophecy is closer to modern dystopia.

Our fascist government put a third-grader in handcuffs.
A mother and her three children were snatched by ICE from a dairy farm in Sackets Harbor, a rural town in northern New York.
But the location is no coincidence—Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, LIVES THERE. He allowed his own neighbors, including a third grader, to be jailed. Deplorable.

Until this moment, President Trump, I think I never really gauged your cruelty or your recklessness. Let us not torture these innocent men further. You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency?

Great to see the US rallies get coverage on NZ television.
It’s unfair to ask for more, but I wish rather than the focus or framing be the tariffs, the presenter might have read a sample of the long list of activities that are disconcerting.
