Sorry, I’m up for some equal opportunity diminutives for Chippy, Whinny, Rimmer and all those wankers in badly fitting blue suits. …feel like I’ve missed somebody out, just can’t put my thumb on it

when it happens... I will be online ALL day. cancel my appointments. hold my calls. "what were you doing when you found out?" my grandchildren will ask. "the posts, children, I was reading the posts!!" I'll say, and we'll all crowd around my scrapbook containing the best ones

I was reading an article about retirement and how after a couple of years post retirement, apparently costs go down once people settle into it and it’s because we spend a lot of money “to work”. Clothes, commute, lunch, coffees - we work so we are able to work.

Is there a single Australian who gives a rat’s shit what Bibi Netanyahu thinks? Netanyahu is a corrupt, loveless, narcissistic, irredeemable armchair warlord whose entire approach to leadership is a desire to escape personal accountability by abandoning moral authority. He is garbage, and fuck him.

I'm happy to announce that my opinion of AI has changed! I used to just hate it, now I think we need to [redacted] Sam Altman and every [redacted] pushing this ghoulish bullshit with [redacted] until they [redacted], and salt the earth of every data centre after [redacted] to the ground.

Like seriously, how do you sleep at night knowing you are responsible for losing the country two thirds of a BILLION dollars?

I'm so tired of Pākehā slithering into conversations around the ongoing colonisation and erasure of Māori language and culture to defend the process, like it's somehow magically divorced from the intent and outcome.

I can’t believe Andrew Little (on the Representation Commission) thought it was a good idea to change the name Rongotai to “Wellington Bays” on the suggestion of his former chief of staff, without checking in with local representatives, mana whenua or, apparently, anyone else.

Chloe was right, was right to say it and was right not to apologize There are multiple government MPs who are saying privately they know the govt position is deeply wrong but are putting *themselves* first when it comes to the greatest atrocity of the modern age. That's FAR more than just spineless
