Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.

The Editor doesn’t moderate this blog,  3 volunteers do, they are very lenient to provide you a free speech space but if it’s just deranged abuse or putting words in bloggers mouths to have a pointless argument, we don’t bother publishing.

EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird bullshit about the UN taking over the world  and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.

  1. Well this is encouraging I guess: https://www.newshub.co.nz/home/politics/2022/12/prime-minister-jacinda-ardern-only-found-out-she-d-feature-in-harry-meghan-show-same-day-trailer-dropped.html

    It’s a bit of a mind fuck though how politics and entertainment have converged into the same beast. I guess the adage still rings true though “follow the money to find the source”, or in this particular case it’s two narcissistic grifters with money and privilege, clipping every ticket and anyone’s expense to find more money. It can’t end well for them. Kinda funny Ardern’s been manipulated by them too, in a woke kinda way. Perhaps apt?

  2. This from Denmark, an interesting country akin to ours in population. And Danes have come to live here. Jens Hansen RIP moulded the Ring to Rule Us All, and his dashing son followed in the line, for instance.

    This story about a revolution bringing the Enlightenment to the Danish Court ‘A Royal Affair’ may bring some enlightenment to us in NZ as we seem to be stuck in agricultural ruts.

    Chopped and sliced – NZ services provide many teats for the sucking from by thirsty overseas – usually – companies and I fear we will end up one giant corpse! I wonder what effect this latest news will do I fear that we will grow to be bigger suckers, and we need to getaway from the idea that we only ‘do’ sucking eg from dairy cows.

  4. Turn to weather on metservice on internet but its down, a replacement there but I wanted more detail. I have something I don’t want to get wet and should have got it inside but am too disorganised. So go to radio and can’t find a niche on News site for weather. It may be there but I went then to the list of broadcast hourly news on audio but – ”This audio is not downloadable due to copyright restrictions. ‘WTF – this is or was supposed to be public radio. I am getting less and less respectful of this country.
