The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Ah! It's because science in New Zealand must be "commercialised" now, don't you see? (Make profits) Not like that stifles innovation or makes NZ unattractive for researchers. And it's not like science has been tasked with doing this before and failed.

(I hope the sarcasm is clear)

To put it in context, it was slightly more than the accomodation allowance our Landlord Luxon tried to claim in March 2024 and which he tried to insist "was an entitlement he was entitled to".

But not enough cash to keep track of viral movements, huh?

It’s time to change how we talk about violence against women.

Well done Vanessa Smith-Glintenkamp for having the courage of her convictions. She resigned as she can't work for the racist misogynist new Napier Mayor. If only more of his voters knew or cared that he's an awful person. Thanks to them we're stuck with him til 2028
