Cool new form of gen-AI assisted consumer fraud just dropped. If you're booking a hotel in an unfamiliar locale, beware. Sincerely doubt this is limited to Las Vegas. www.youtube.com/shorts/2U2_8...

Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli: “Syria is Gaza on steroids, and that is the next war, with absolute certainty. “There is no avoiding it.”
Your exam results will not define you. But believe me trying to release a load of butterflies at a wedding will. It's been seven years now and they still call me 'the man with the box of dead butterflies'.
Please if you are leaving NZ for a holiday in November please remember to place a special vote before you leave❤️ Your vote counts #nzpol
It's been nine years and this piece still hits HARD.
It's Going Down@igd.bsky.social · 3d ago“We would have been crushed like cockroaches if it were not for the anarchists and the antifascists… They saved our lives, actually. We would have been completely crushed, and I’ll never forget that.” - Dr. Cornel West crimethinc.com/2017/08/17/w...
Oh, also, Penk declined Ministerial intervention in March 26 that would've allowed a 6yo with Down syndrome to remain in NZ with his parents and extended family, who were skilled migrants seeking an exemption to NZs health requirements. Penk never cared about our communities.
I had planned to do some building on my LEGO this evening but no, I had to go and be ATTENTIVE and ENGAGED. Pfh.

Post-Left Watch@postleftwatch.bsky.social · 4d agoCenk Uygur and Glenn Greenwald claim that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is on the "Kyrsten Sinema track." "Come in as a progressive, then realize, oh, money and media decides your power within D.C., shift over to money and media."
Polls have just opened for the Clacton by-election The worlds eyes are on Clacton, begging them to do the funniest thing Polls close 10pm UK time (11am Friday NZ time) and results should be known Friday morning UK time (Friday evening NZ time)

I didn’t even know BlueSky had a trending feature! And now I’d rather not have known.
KJ Charles@kjcharleswriter.com · 3d agoHey @bsky.support @support.bsky.team your AI is falsifying election results again
It's a secondary thing, but can we talk about how ridiculous "Fix the basics" is as an election slogan for an incumbent government? Especially one that ran on that same slogan last time.
Fuck me I earn $140k and I would still be better off under the greens? #nzpol
Wrath of Fox ♥️🤍🖤 🏳️🌈@wrath-of-fox.bsky.social · 3d agoToday’s income tax comparison (now vs Green Party policy) - Aged Care Home workers $50k. Use greenstax.cc to work out what your income tax would be under the Greens. This person would take home $573.33 more each year. Their tax rate goes from 17.08% to 15.95% #NZPol #Greens #BHN #TaxWealthNotWork
I have personally witnessed that 'sacking' is how Luxon deals with anyone in his staff who dare to challenge him & his ideas. Exactly why AirNZ went downhill during his tenure. He could never be wrong! Even though experts advised him: wrong engines,aircraft,routes,safety, strategy! #NZPol
All I need in life is Kieran McAnulty looking on and calmly drinking water as Bishop squirms #nzpol www.1news.co.nz/2026/08/13/w...

A thankfully brief explainer for any worthy folks Zooming in to the InternetNZ AGM again tonight to be human shields against weird entryist nonsense. Vote No on David Ward's Everything.
Nigel Robertson@easegill.bsky.social · 4d agoConsensus in Nethub is vote no to all of his motions. They will create a huge burden of work, they will lead to the doxxing of people, and are likely to breach the Privacy Act.
13th August 2021 A day to remember. An exquisite medieval gold ring appeared before me. The workmanship of the medieval goldsmith is beyond compare 🥰
I don't know how accurate or even if it's true but I think if we all squeeze our eyes shut REALLLLLLLY TIGHTLY we can make it happen.
The only thing Zuck's ever been truly excited about is the Pervert Glasses. Which isn't really that surprising when you remember that Facebook launched as a site for sharing and rating pictures of "hot college girls" without their knowledge.
Chris Person@papapishu.bsky.social · 3d agoFacebook’s most massive successes aside from adtech are just shit they’ve just straight up bought or stolen and so any time zuck is really excited about something they’ve made you know it’s going to fail and they’re going to lie out their ass about it the whole time. This basically never fails.
