A tiny calf spotted alone in the Tsavo bush. Two pilots watching from the air for nearly two hours, hoping his family would return. They never did. Today, Arthi turns two. An easygoing, independent bull, he prefers play-wrestling with Taroha and Olomunyak over rougher characters like Pardamat.
"Ignoring extreme heat and raging fires isn't just complacency. It's a dereliction of duty." Experts warn the climate crisis is already costing lives and urgent action from the Government is needed.
Sometimes I wonder about the impact of politicians and media treating Ardern with such misogynistic contempt for years on end and it’s pretty frightening to consider that all that energy didn’t die when Ardern left, and is now funneled into policy, and misogyny/ racism is normalised (and rewarded).
This is what climate failure looks like. Nature, homes and livelihoods are being destroyed. The Government must act now.

I do wonder if The Media Class of this country have been on the mercury cocaine. Their brains must be as hard and crumbly as Edinburgh rock. Imagine writing that paragraph and thinking *Séamas* is the bad guy.

This is pure extraction of wealth from one group of people to another We urgently need: Windfall tax on oil giants Windfall tax on banks Both are creaming money off us during a cost of living crisis Even Thatcher had the balls to tax the banks Will you @andyburnham?
RNZ framing this as a wily Peters evading comments, rather than as a coward who refused to answer questions and abused the rules of the house to do so is just par for the course in the current media environment, sadly
When we let autistic people who don’t give a shit about money, status, or power into power. But that won’t happen, because normies hate us.
FFS we cannot keep doing this… A handful of the richest people hoovering up wealth from everyone else while quite literally making the planet unlivable At what point does someone grow a fucking spine and do something?!

A solution that didn't have a problem until David Seymour decided to starve and humiliate poor children to impress his Epstein Network donors. Preparing all that school to prison pipeline free jail labour for the upcoming feudal lords.
And kill off a couple of thousand jobs on communities across the country
Girl, same. When I used to be on Facebook, I had so many people private messaging me about their LC (I'm a therapist.) They were not posting about it publicly. Many of these people knew each other, yet they all swear they don't know anyone who has long COVID, and *they* have Anything But Long COVID.

Pretty grim, when the conservative coalition running Aotearoa in 2026 is considering *Reagan-era* “ketchup as a vegetable” nonsense for our hungriest children. How’s that green shoots dancing shoes rock-star economy fixing the basics building the future working out? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketchup...
