The Daily Blog Open Mic – 11th May 2025
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.
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.

Compare this to the case where someone deliberately entered someone’s property through a shut gate which said that there was no entry, not held at fault? The Council found the owners of the dog that bit the person on the property to have a ‘dangerous dog’.
Perversely the person trespassing on someone else’s property in Tasman was found to be at fault with though the dog was doing its protection job properly. Here an animal known to be in a savage mating state was allowed or enabled to trespass and no responsibility for it was held against its owners. Also why didn’t police use a tranquiliser gun rather than simply shooting the animal. It seems that the convoluted laws we have fail in fairness and good reasoning.
Perversely I got the message incorrect above – the dog was found to be at fault, and the person was not, IIRR even rapped on the knuckles. It seems these days that everybody is responsible for everybody else. Freedom to wander around with mind in neutral is the game; viz? people walking in a forward direction studying something in their hand – don’t know what? Hah!
Thunk. Perhaps it’s their lifeline on their palm.
