I can’t think of a clever caption for this. It just breaks my fucking heart.
So I guess Rimmer is dictating our foreign policy as well as our domestic policy. If we want to change this, we need to change the regime.
Siri, how much do politicians get paid to be pro-Israel
charlie kirk is MLK. camera is hamas. chair is astronaut. baby is stove. yawn is owl.
on the one hand, this sounds like it won't raise enough money for them to fund meaningful tax relief for the people struggling the most with the cost of living, but on the other it will be ruthlessly attacked and exploited by their political opponents
Don’t watch the Charlie Kirk video. That’s my advice.

Public ownership of critical assets can help secure public services, drive competition and get a better deal for the public.
I love the bridge but it's a great representation of Wellington's malaise: faded glory that once expressed something vital about the city's identity, but now just costs a fortune to do a bad job when the money could be better spent on 100 other things www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/city-to-s...
