I know it's a silly jokey joke, but people REALLY need to stop anthropomorphizing their boyfriends. "My boyfriend told me" your boyfriend didn't "tell" you anything. "My boyfriend thinks..." your boyfriend can't actually think or feel; just output a convincing simulation of it based on probability 🙄

I’m not sure if you’ve noticed the results of the last election but your EV is going to get at least 2 carless days, probably 3.

burying the lede at the end there

So proud to be the @greens.org.nz candidate for the new electorate of Kapiti, stretching from Whitby and Paremata in the south through to Ōtaki in the north.

Really excited to help elect a new Government this year with not only a compassionate Green heart, but also a strong Green spine.

underrated joke

don’t keep this audience in suspense, troy

If you find yourself following someone who is called woke ginger or pissed off nurse or whatever, they’re not your ally. Your ally is someone with an obscure Pokémon avatar called like ant piss aficionado

a lot of people think that those allies are all trans catgirls who secretly run the internet but that’s an exaggeration: ant piss afficionado, (who IS a trans catgirl who secretly runs the internet) is just the exact median of the social group of your potential allies

I guess my only question is how you intend to use tamarind, an effeminate flavour enjoyed only by degenerate foreigners, in your masculine diet of 100% tuna and egg whites

extra special UX catastrophe when there are two of them and you must adjust them individually to obtain a tolerable outcome from their collective activity and neither one of them works in an immediately predictable manner. Tens of minutes pass while you are forced to explore all possible endpoints.

100% agree

Can't let this pass without mentioning that Klim Type Foundry alone has returned NZ to the top rank in world typography

hm, that’s a lot more than I would have naively expected for a modern car. Not arguing, just … my guesstimate was pretty wrong.

1979 was coincidentally the last year before NZ started sucking at typography.

I think it’s just called “Footers” now, but they don’t pronounce it the way you’d expect

MORE BLACKS
MORE DOGS
MORE IRISH
MO CHARA

is there a patreon I can join to reduce the risk of ever reading the phrase “clown milk” again

This change will definitely make my YouTube viewing habits more closely resemble traditional television: I don’t watch that either 😁

more specifically, Creed is Gospel music for white men experiencing personal or societal pressure that does not permit them to acknowledge their need for Gospel music

better, if anything

@marcdaalder.bsky.social Props for your recent work, the only coverage I’ve found that isn’t blatantly misrepresenting the commission to farm clicks. We notice. Thank you.

children are very hardy, I’m sure that will be fine

THAT’S NOT HOW SASHIMI WORKS JACKSON

I mean, appropriately cooked chicken is pretty high on the list, or so I thought.

you scare me sometimes, in ways unrelated to our mutual interests

We will mourn your passing.

I’m not a big smart business man but I genuinely find myself wondering if there’s any scope for us to just say sorry we made a grave electoral error and please could we have the old ferry deal back, our bad, small country, not good at this, please help us, we will send you milk powder in thanks

auckland had an amazing sunset tonight and if even a single one of you assholes somehow attributes that beauty to some end-of-the-world shit happening elsewhere and don’t let us just have a single nice thing I will block you so hard istg

it remains a source of joy and amazement to me that deer analogues the size of a baby elephant are a perfectly reasonable thing to encounter in some parts of the world ❤️

Absolutely true in our household; also (plausibly) the reason the Bernard now minutely inspects all incoming packages, even those not directly implicated in the narcotics trade.
