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.
All in all, TDB gives punters a very, very, very wide space to comment in but we won’t bother with out right lies or gleeful malice. We leave that to the Herald comment section.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist abuse, homophobic abuse, racist abuse, anti-muslim abuse, transphobic abuse, 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.
Will this make NZ easier to manage? For better trickle down?

In October 2023, the Wharepapa Arthur Marble Aquifer system and Te Waikoropupū Springs received protection through a water conservation order, the highest level of protection that a body of water can receive in New Zealand.
However, the Fast-track Approvals Act passed in 2024 overrides the Resource Management Act and can thus nullify the water conservation order. ,,,
How can we sell NZAO as a beautiful country, a ‘Garden of Eden’ (virtually unspoiled) to tourists and so make a living if we keep doing mad eco-environ-mental ravages?
Words fail me about those who support the CoC National hotch-potch.
Who would think we are an educated country. I feel driven to Shakespeare just to show I am eddicated:

Speech from Hamlet Act2Sc1 : “Is this a dagger which I see before me”,
The handle towards my hand? Come, let me clutch thee.
I have thee not, yet I see thee still…
A dagger of the mind, a false creation,
Proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain?…
Mine eyes are made the fools o’ the other senses,
Or else worth all the rest; I see thee still,
And on thy blade and dudgeon gouts of blood,
Which was not so before. There’s no such thing:
It is the bloody business which informs
Thus to mine eyes. Now o’er the one halfworld
Nature seems dead, and wicked dreams abuse
The curtain’d sleep;…

Press Release: TRAINZ
This a headline for a piece on Scoop which is a serious information provider. How come it is floating in under the name of some game that purports to be near-real?
I am sick of acronyms. The dim people who think that their time and ours is too precious to express the fount of their workings deserve to be the ones who have the shortest time for their period of fame! It is an insolence to the ordinary people in this country from whom they derive their living – as yet.
We had better watch out as everything will be changed in time and only jargon will be spoken, and I won’t be here to fulminate on your behalf. I will have ‘passed away’. And if you are too dumb to understand the significance of the period of quiet, the blank space of questions that will be your loss. I’m in a 1% group that is thinking and trying to reach out to innocents and also to get through to the comfortable or confused.
