Time to button up, poops don't lie: poops.nz #Covid #MaskUp
wastewater
The national aggregate wastewater estimate is in the highest since July 2024 kind of zone. And while some individual catchments (in the north) are like that (check the maps tab at poops.nz for detail), a lot of the aggregate is that covid is up everywhere at the same time.
Weak tiny little kids who are barely 25: "Due to the traumas i'm an agere so i am allowed to like my stuffies according to my therapist it is normal for me because i am deconstructing toxic positionalities of gendered oppre"
Me, age 40: "oh hell yeah another plushie i like. im ordering it. ok done"
βThe only way to protect children is to restrict adultβs freedomβ is perhaps the most destructive impulse of the current wave of political think
LOIs are back again!

My biggest argument for how I know Claude isn't self aware is that they AI guys care about it. If it had wants and needs, they'd abandon it immediately.
Lol, lmao..

Due to logistics reasons (coming into the office and getting it done in town and then wfh the next day etc). Its a bit of a walk to the local chemist by home x.x
Oh apparently there is a better "flucelvax quad" flu vaccine that you can get (which does cost) this upcoming flu season? (available april I think)
Have mine booked for Monday x.x (I heard this was coming so waited, even tho I could've gotten another booster end of Jan, which would've been the older JN.1 variant booster)
Please please get your boosters, NZ just updated to LP.8.1 so nows as good a time as any
Meanwhile... *epstein files*
Politicians once again don't know what the fuck they're talking about
If your GP practice is using an AI scribe I have two suggestions: first, demand clarity on privacy (storage, access, policy). Second, ensure they personally verify accuracy. Weβve seen clinically important errors, and doctors who couldnβt explain where the data was going. Patient safety failures.
Me: where are these DNS requests coming from??
Me after some sleuthing: Oh of course it was <work department>
You think "the online left" is unhinged, dog please talk to an independent voter IRL. They want universal healthcare and abolish taxes. They want to dissolve the coast guard. They want to rename the army the coast guard. They want their alien implants removed, and they also want more alien implants
Welp there goes another one :|

Photo on white carpet of a purple box that says ScratchPad Pro in yellow lettering with an image of a cardboard cat scratcher in the shape of a laptop and an orange cat moving a mouse and looking at the screen. Next to the box is a silver tabby with big pupils peering out from behind a sisal scratch post to look at the box
Photo of a grey box on a white rug. Extending from the box is a pink cord with a white mouse attached. A brown and black tabby cat is next to it, leaning over to chomp on the cord
Sorry we can't go out tonight, we're going on the internet #Caturday #Catsky
Useful graph for the debt scare folks. Govt debt-servicing costs are super low these days. So much headroom to invest in the many, many things we need for the long-term, yet still we beg for eye-wateringly expensive private finance.
Auckland
Wellington
Dunedin
Christchurch
FWIW I think it likely Dunedin is about to get a fairly hefty rise in the covid rate through March. Wellington has had a rise the like of last winter (and for reasons I think Wellington is post peak), Auckland has had a rise to last winter levels and I think is at peak. Dunedin hasn't...

So just to be clear Luxon wants Kiwi families to pay a new tax on their power bills to build an LNG terminal that we donβt need & that will cook the climate, so that Methanex, a company contributing 0 dollars in tax themselves, can keep sending their profits offshore. newsroom.co.nz/2025/04/30/m...

Rip, covid high again in Wellington again and no one seeming to notice. From poops.nz
Given all the really important shit that this government says we "can't afford" it's amazing what they manage to find money for.
I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.
