It's honestly nice to hear that most of the AI bubble really is people play-acting to keep their jobs: hermit-tech.com/blog/ai-mani... Doctorow has a big essay on this, but I prefer the source (this isn't an outsider, they're a high profile tech consultant actively mixing it up in the biz)

AI Mania Is Eviscerating Global Decisionmaking

The reality of how much damage AI mania is doing to our ability to run institutions effectively.

Final day to check or change your enrollment for the Maori roll... vote.nz #nzpol

I speak not as your leader, but as a messenger: today is the final day to enrol on the Māori roll. As Matiu Rata showed us in 1980, your seats and roll are your power, but leaders can't stand without your vote. Stand firm, push on, and draw strength from history. #NZPol #MāoriRoll #TeTiriti

This looks good to me… www.greens.org.nz/manifesto_2026

Labour leadership’s no show at union-backed event a ‘huge own goal’ say organisers

A fired up crowd of 1400 at a political pledge event in Auckland was disappointed by the political no-shows, but Labour says there appeared to be some miscommunication.

The difference in NZ is you can still protest Labour by party voting for the Green party & Still end up with a Labour Green coalition that would be proportionally more progressively left wing. Last time Labour actually acted as a progressive left wing party it won spectacularly. #nzpol

Labour don't represent Unions anymore (apart from the wonderful Camilla Belich and @clrenney.bsky.social) Party vote @greens.org.nz, for all of us✊🏻💚 #nzpol

“Every day, powerful men are making decisions to increase the profits of a few at the top. And you pay the price.” “We will ensure the super rich and big corporations pay their fair share of tax so we can fund the critical services people rely on.” Sounds like a logical, smart, solid plan to me ✅

OK, what drunkle said was clearly racist. Even Simeon Brown called it racist. Time to ask anyone you know that might vote NZ First whether that is the actual reason they are voting for them. What does it say about Aotearoa, as a country, that this is acceptable from a cabinet minister? #nzpol
