Dictionary.com’s word of the year is “6-7,” a Gen Alpha slang term with no actual definition.
Oxford’s word of the year is “rage bait” and Cambridge picked "parasocial."
Together, they paint a picture of digital nihilism. https://buff.ly/53z5RCh

i mustn't discourse. discourse is the mind-killer. discourse is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will permit discourse to flow through & around me.
when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where discourse has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Luxon thinks he's a great leader and is politically smart, when we can all see that he is just ... not. The gap between his ego and his ability is a fucking abyss. He's such an embarrassment.

There's a lot of self image tied up in always being right for these folks. So they twist reality, and themselves, in complex knots to explain how superior they are.

Look. What I say to you is this.
Raise a glass this Christmas to all those who we've:
Made jobless
Given pay cuts to
Booted from emergency housing
Denied medical care to
Stripped benefits from
Vilified and scapegoated
Driven offshore
For they have made me and my mates happier and richer

I realise there's a lot more to be concerned about, but one thing I can't wrap my head around is how this actually came to be? How is *everyone* involved just not so embarrassed they let this go ahead? Why would he event accept such a pity prize?

One of the obvious impacts of Govt not investing into a downturn is tanking taxes (= higher deficits). Countless examples across the world, but sadly most of our reckonomics commentariat are small island caveman monetarists, so, prices going up? Ug. Throw kiwis on the dole, ug, crash economy. [🧵1/n]
