Sad, as it is, given today’s announcement of the imminent re-writing of history (sigh, again😠), seems pertinent to repost my thoughts from last year.

Absolutely huge crowd in Melbourne right now.

People from all backgrounds, ages and professions - united in opposition to genocide and war.

This is what social cohesion looks like.

The Māori Seats in parliament are for Māori people. They are a Tiriti-based right not a race-based right.

This is why at Rātana Pā we launched a member's bill to entrench Māori seats - the bare minimum for protect dedicated Māori voice in our parliament.

The next stretch goal is @fromthemorgue.bsky.social, who will be looking into the comics scene of Doskvol in '68. Very excited for it.

Am reading Chris Bishop praise himself for his "turnaround" job on Kainga Ora. He's claimed he's saved a lot of money & brought KO back from the brink. I mean if cutting thousands of state home builds, fire selling assets, and hardly trying to build anything new is doing an excellent job, sign me up

So the DOD started laser testing because they believed party balloons were drones, shut down all of El Paso airspace, and blamed it on Mexican cartels?

My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse

RIP Robert Tinney (November 22, 1947 – February 1, 2026), the artist famous for his playful covers for Byte magazine, a hobbist magazine that ushered in the microcomputing age from the mid-70s through the 90s. I'm honored to have included his work in my own art collection.

hey it's me! Excited to dig into Doskvol's comics scene. Comics history in the real world is a mess of organized crime and huge personalities in desperate situations, ripe for Bladesification.

One thing I haven't answered for myself yet - are the comics in Doskvol '68 dominated by superheroes? 🤔

You would think this is a joke, but it isn't.
Anyone else see former councillor Simon Woolfe, yesterday on Facebook, blame the Moa Point failure on cycleways?
