pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

It's over: I've already depicted you as the seething broad gauge train, and myself as the smug narrow gauge!
A sketch of two steam trains, human faces on the front. The title above them says 'The Broad Gauge and the Narrow Gauge'. The narrow gauge train is looking unbearably smug, then broad gauge absolutely raging. In the smoke, they are communicating, the broad gauge saying "You are a locomotive" and the narrow saying "You are another".

It’s not moonshine its “unaged bourbon” it’s not being a hobo with seasonal employment it’s “van life” that’s not a trailer it’s a “tiny home” it’s not piecework it’s the “gig economy” - culture is the thin wedge to make survival strategies of the poor sound like fun fads

People aren't struggling, they are experimenting with frugality! 🧑‍🔬🔬🧪
WSJ standfirst reads "From buying half a cow to watering down soap, people are experimenting with frugality-and it is affecting sales at consumer companies"

The new Social studies curriculum is atrocious in general, but I just want to shine a spotlight on the explicit retreading of literal Nazi propaganda that is woven through the year 10 content! Buckle up this shit is shocking!

Every column this moron spits out shows him as hopelessly out of touch and unsuitable for his role, let alone having his dumb reckons published.

The Auckland University chair of macroeconomics, who hasn't left his office since 1975, thinks there are are people "worth a few hundred thousand" who are landlords and that houses are worth $100k.
Professor Robert MacCulloch, the Matthew S. Abel chair of macroeconomics at Auckland University, said the policy was "half-baked" and questioned whether Labour would raise anything at all, saying it could hurt people with lower incomes. "It's a trivial amount of money. It's not going to change a whole lot of anything," he said. "You could get with this a very rich person with a $20m house on Paritai Drive... which is not subject to any tax at all providing you're living in it, and someone who's worth a few hundred thousand with their own house and a rental property worth $100,000, they pay this tax."

We have no need for any kind of medical card. We have a national unified medical network with personal identifiers and our doctors are all connected to it already. They can see who has had 1 visit and who has had 50 visits. It's not a cafe coffee stamp card or 1960s bus pass that needs to be clipped

Lot of money we’re paying this prick to not understand how inflation works.
andrewr4.womcats.com Andrew R @andrewr4.womcats.com · 19d
Does the highly paid Brian Roche not understand how inflation works?

Inflation rates are always historic - the prices have already gone up. Workers are already paying those prices.

When the rate drops - prices don’t go down, they just rise more slowly.

#nzpol
Snip from RNZ article Roche said the rate of inflation was only one way of measuring a deal. "It's very difficult to always keep pace with inflation. It's sort of ironic, if that's how we peg everything, when inflation goes down, do you end up paying some of it back?

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.
