In other news, Aotearoa now has homeless encampments in Dunedin and Whanganui. I suggest they are related phenomena.

Seems bad that National have lost track of ~6500 households they had in emergency housing in their ruthless purge. You can just... lose track of 20% of people in your care and the headline will celebrate it.

Oh babe, no, you weren't hired as an "Artist", you were hired as a "Gen AI Content Trainer" and the pay is commensurate.. what about Steve? Steve is a "Gen AI Retoucher".. again, not an Artist, sweetie. Those young men there are "Prompt Engineers" and they are the heart of our value creation.

I remember being, I dunno, 16, and watching the twin towers collapse and thinking - not with elation or joy at all but a certain lack of surprise - "yeah, that makes sense. That, or something like that, was gonna happen, sooner or later,"

very funny that there's a list of full names that can be used to cause ChatGPT to stop processing and throw an error. That's so Jonathan Zittrain of them.

Everyone seems stressed all the time so I thought I'd share a fan-theory about a fan-theory about the Star Wars prequels:

Don't let people wear MAGA caps in Aotearoa NZ without pushback. The wearer is signalling that they want US-brand fascism in this country. Make sure they don't feel safe in public, if you can.

Turns out they put the Jan 6 insurrectionists in the same prison wing, and they now have a 40-person prison gang called the Patriot Wing who have daily rituals and a fan club on the outside. Ruh roh.

Write to your MPs about their ongoing silence and/or tepid responses regarding the genocide in Palestine.

Every day this continues our shame grows.

Just so ~weird~ the way none of the media reported on a contested vigil outside TVNZ. Would have thought it was an easy story: Destiny Church waving Israel flags and revving bikes, protestors chanting and facing off. I wonder why the news wasn’t interested.

Be careful in town this afternoon, especially if you were planning to attend the Palestine vigil outside TVNZ. Tamaki's goons will be there.

This interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates on some breakfast show is an excellent example of the clarity that comes with a well-considered moral viewpoint.

See if you can spot the implicit threat to strip Coates of his legitimacy.

WSL just no longer works at all, so my docket setup is fucked till I fix that. Presumably it has quietly done some OneDrive shit so now I have to go find out if my data is safe. What the actual fuck.

Microsoft have nonconsensually upgraded me to Windows 11 and now nothing fucking works. They even fucked the icons to their OWN store and terminal. I’m unbelievably angry.
