If your God identifies as god, human, holy spirit and mysteriously also bread, do you really get to complain about other people’s gender identity 🤔

Objectively funny they're slapping a 50% tariff on the country where we get 57% of our imported roses from 2 weeks before Valentine's Day.

So don't do that.

Zuckerberg's 'masculine energy' got its first big win with Trump declaring there are only two genders. This is an agenda that will see laws passed to push gays back into the closet and women back into the kitchen. Our trans siblings are in the front line of this fight, so now more than ever

lol. For the record, I’m not a Zionist ally. Zionists are religious fascists and I’m a woke socialist atheist. I’m anti-Hamas and pro-Palestinian for these people have had it bad. But make what you will of these lists.

The worst manager in NZ political history keeps getting dog-walked by the most divisive, morally corrupt politicians in NZ political history.

But he's rich. He's sorted.

Are you?

No more. Until the next time.

Can we truly make it no more? I believe we can, but our politicians from Labour to Act have neither the vision nor the fortitude.

For the last two years I've been reminding people that perceived wisdom of "National is better at running the economy" has absolutely no basis in fact.

Today I feel vindicated. Yet despite the evidence in front of out eyes, I'm sure many among the great unwashed still believe that nonsense.

Economic mismanagement, courtesy NActFirst (everyone else second).
Vandals and Visigoths, the lot. Actually, worse still, neoliberal middle management promoted in incompetence via the Peter Principle.
The Minister of Finance and the Treasury released its Half Year Economic and Fiscal Update today, and with it – its ‘plan’ for the Budget in 2025 in the Budget Policy Statement. The indicators show very clearly that it’s not working for anyone. A long thread (apologies) #nzpol
