It is appalling that (as revealed in the ruling) the Ministry of Health recommended Option 1 (status quo), and warned that Option 4 (a ban) could cause ‘adverse health outcomes’. The Coalition went with Option 4.

Brilliant work!

Anatomy of a Hit Piece: Deconstructing The New York Times' Attack on Transgender Rights in U.S. v. Skrmetti Seemingly not content with the US v. Skrmetti decision issued by the court siding with Tenessee to ban gender affirming care for trans youth, the New York Times was ready to pour salt on the fresh wou...

I couldn't let that Confessore piece slide. It was such a disgusting hit piece on a vulnerable community in a moment of crisis. I dissected the article and why its framings are dishonest at best and outright lies of ommission at worst.

Ha!

Also Steve Bannon 😳

Love the soundtrack to the original…

Ah yes the “Race based privilege” of Māori dying on average seven years earlier than non-Māori. He also campaigned on doing away with the Human Rights Commission, turned the school lunch programme into literal slop and said Guy Fawkes had a good solution to the Ministry of Pacific Peoples.

Oh no worries, I’m fussy too…I know people like Silo for example but it grinds my gears (still watched it though 😂)

These are all set in 2025.

Have you tried Dark Matter?

Had an awesome time chatting with Jon Stewart & @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social talking about how to fight the dumpster fire.

Gear up. It’s time to brawl.

The Govt's frothing at the prospect of turning NZ into a Pacific Norway through oil mining & make us all rich.
OK.
One minor detail.

Here, we take a royalty of FIVE PERCENT from oil companies.
Norway taxes oil companies at SEVENTY EIGHT PERCENT.

Spot the difference?
Coz political journos can't.

Transgender athletes’ rights was opposed by those who viewed female athletes as undeserving, study finds

The researchers also found that adherence to traditional standards of femininity—such as prioritizing thinness and attractiveness—was a strong predictor of opposition to transgender athlete inclusion. For instance, respondents who endorsed the idea that women should be thin or that women’s muscles were less attractive were less supportive of transgender athletes competing in alignment with their gender identity.

Negative attitudes toward homosexuality were another powerful predictor of opposition to transgender athletes’ rights. Participants who expressed homophobic views, such as agreeing with statements like “I would be disappointed if I found out my child was homosexual,” were significantly more likely to support sex testing and oppose transgender inclusion.

Sad to see the USA experiencing a ‘rapid unscheduled disassembly.’

Thing is, the OG Nazis came for the trans people first and they didn’t even put us in the poem.

"Ambushed" by a plea for mercy is a real language choice.

Rep AOC: "republicans, who have voted consistently against the violence against women's act, who have taken the rights of all women to have control over their own body, who as women are bleeding out in parking lots, now want to pretend today that they care about women."

AOC: I don’t celebrate RAPISTS, so no, I’m not going to the inauguration tomorrow

Important THREAD about the highly problematic nature of the Cass Review...

NZ elections do seem to come around very quickly…

Thanks, nice to be here!

Taking a break from Meta in protest at their new hate-enabling content moderation policies. Zuck says that people like me are just ‘virtue signalling’. That hurt, Mark! You know what didn’t hurt? Deleting Threads because it fucking sucks.
