Cool to see @ryanfoxgolfer sitting with Dan Hillier while waiting in case Chacarra stuffed up last few holes. Cut earlier, he probably didn't need to be there - great to see the kiwis supporting each other #DPWorldTour

How do we go back to being a society that builds train stations like spectacular Art Deco cathedrals? 30th Street Station, Philadelphia.

“Sharples said he couldn't believe the 120 emails he received from applicants for the role. I thought, 'Oh my God, that's so many.' But then our admin said, 'No, you've got another 870-odd on SEEK” rnz.co.nz/news/business/1866…

Wait... what?
President Trump Reveals that he is Preventing Numerous Wars on a Daily Basis. “I am also preventing on a constant basis a War between Japan and North Korea. China and Taiwan. Australia and New Zealand…” He is Truly the Peacemaker in Chief.

And they've removed the only useful part of the old policy. The job. Now you must demonstrate perpetual readiness for jobs that don't exist. Apparently unemployment is a moral failing, except it's also monetary policy of course... wait, what? 5/7

Very revealing - fat checking of Leaders Debate. Luxon had 32 false or misleading statements, while Hipkins had 1 - which was corrected in real time. youtu.be/B6if94Xpb78?si=LGWu…

In 1996, English TV presenter Alain de Cadenet asked legendary New Zealand born fighter pilot Ray Hana, who was 70-years-old, to do a low pass in this Spitfire fighter plane as de Cadenet spoke to the camera

I Am Brie Elliott about an hour ago · A high school English teacher stood up to the Minister of Education. Here's what happened next. Her name is Philippa Tinning. She's the President of the New Zealand Association for the Teaching of English. She represents over 400 schools.

Big issue of the day!
Seems a contentious issue but for anyone who isn’t sure, below is the correct amount of Vegemite and butter so apply to your toast. Cheers.

Paul Henry talking under a confederate flag showed surprisingly poor judgement for a former media man but it’s these statements that make me wonder about dementia. At this point you have to be insane to look upon the Trump presidency and think ‘yeah, that’s what we should do’

Accidentally watched an emmerdale farm ep where a bloke drove a ute into a wedding marque. There is some great disaster drama going on with dream sequences while dying and all! Nearly as good as the Shortland Street musical disaster intermission and ghosts of Dr Warners wives!

In December 2023 the Secretary of Education emailed the Director-General of Health asking her to "soften" the stay-home-if-sick messaging. Not a doctor. Acting for a Minister who is also not a doctor. I have the email, via OIA. #nzpol 🧵 1/

New fear unlocked! I believe the local regs for meat processing are quite robust for prion risk management. But the possibility of other market meat getting into supply chain due some shithouse profiteering on current high prices - yeah its gonna happen to someone
So heads up Prions disease has a 100% death guarantee and cannot be eliminated by sterilization methods so hopefully everyone gets real familiar with it asap

OPINION: A person died outside Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith’s Auckland office. Whatever the circumstances surrounding that death, the image should stop this Government in its tracks. What cannot be ignored is the grim symbolism of somebody dying on the pavement outside the office of a senior minister whose Government has spent months taking an increasingly hard line towards rough sleepers, beggars and some of the most visibly desperate people in New Zealand. That is a national disgrace because this is where New Zealand has arrived. READ: thisquality.com/4isd
