My cartoon in today's www.thepost.co.nz/nz-news/3606...

Forget the bullshit spin or the ludicrous comparisons that we've heard this week. We know what it's about! And we know it'll come to bite National in the arse.

We can only hope...

This government has been doing DEI on behalf of unqualified white men, as showed by their appointments for The Waitangi Tribunal and the NZ Human Rights Commissioner, all slated as unqualified by officials. End this woke shit.

For Aucklanders that aren't happy about this and have the time, Simeon Brown's electorate office is on the main road in Pakuranga which is gridlocked in peak hours. Take a sign and protest for even half an hour. We need visibility of this.

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

Excellent stuff from Dr Rakete.

(and A+ trolling (though also 100% fair and accurate) in its use of "grooming" to describe how Destiny reels in the vulnerable)
From the University of Auckland – Comment: Destiny Church wants the fear of violence to drive queer people out of public life. We must pressure the Govt to adopt lawfare against the organisation and stand up to them.

"And it really doesn't matter how many ministers we get, or CEs, or even director-generals, it's not going to solve our fundamental problem that health is strapped for cash. It's underfunded, exacerbated at the moment by a focus on funding and cutting costs, which is making things worse."
